Excited to be giving a talk at #SPSP2026 in Chicago on this terrific symposium. Our symposium explores how moralized political thinking emerges, how it polarizes and divides, and how it can be reduced. Come check it out!

It’s so weird how we’re all just working like this is still a normal country.

You know what I miss? Science. Doing it. Thinking about it. Talking about it. Writing about it. Getting excited about it. Maybe I’ll get to be a scientist again one day. Maybe it will matter.

Ever wonder why some immigrants seem to want to close the door (or the border) behind them? Go see Kevin at #28 to find out how authoritarianism and acculturation drive this phenomenon #spsp25

How do attitudes become moralized? We find that moral conviction spreads between connected attitudes over time. + Those with highly connected belief systems (ideologues) have highly moralized belief systems! Come see us at the moral psych pre-con poster session @spspnews.bsky.social to learn more😃

Went to Heterodox Academy's website, wondering if an organization "dedicated" to free inquiry would condemn academic censorship from the Trump admin. Unsurprisingly, the only statements on their website commend the admin and explicitly pit the "pursuit of truth" against that of "social justice."

This new paper is so cool! It shows that the media use passive voice, nominalizations, and intransitive verbs that obscure responsibility in cases of police killings. Because they do this, citizens are less likely to hold police officers responsible for bad behavior.

Although I feel the same, I would add that something keeping me going is mentoring students who are still hoping and dreaming big

My occasional reminder to folks on tenure and promotion committees that there will be a cohort of people whose early careers were defined entirely by the pandemic and *waves vaguely* this nonsense, and it *will* impact their productivity. It can't not.

The correlations have become so strong that they compel the question of if and how much these are even separable

I work at a HSI, and we've been having lots of ICE raids in the area this week. One of Trump's EOs enables ICE to conduct raids on campus. We've been trying to prepare students and equip them with resources to navigate this possibility. It's been heart-wrenching to have these conversations.
