Some regional variations: the religious rebound was more pronounced in the Americas, Europe, and Asia; it was relatively stable in sub-Saharan Africa and MENA, where the pre-pandemic trend was already high.

📈New research finds that global religiosity generally increased during the COVID-19 pandemic. The rebound was more pronounced among affluent individuals, whereas religiosity among poorer communities remained unaffected. Read more in #SPPS: ow.ly/bKTS50YhPxx

Excellent discussion on non-independence issues in cross-cultural research. When someone advocates a method, they often miss the domain knowledge/context in which the method may or may not apply. We should be critical about how a given method can help us. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

To my knowledge, our new paper offers the most critical examination of measurement invariance in psychology to date. It's not what you think it is. And you should be very careful before relying on it in group comparisons. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

Interesting approach to measurement invariance testing, which emphasizes similarity/dissimilarity across the group-specific nomological networks of a construct. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

What if the reason why people split 5:5 in the Ultimatum Game or Dictator Game is that they don't understand the game, or they don't care at all about understanding the instructions??

Cross-cultural researchers: still worried about the reference group effect? It’s often cited as a major threat to cross-cultural comparisons using Likert scales. Our new article critiques its logic and shows why it may not be the threat you think it is. doi.org/10.1177/1069...
