Finally the 1-year embargo period is over for green open-access 🥳🥳🥳 Consider uploading your old paper as green OA, too. It makes articles more accessible for scholars whose universities do not have the means to pay for all journals :) Most journals allow it either immediately, or after an embargo.

New: Köhler et al. (incl. @mariogollwitzer.bsky.social) developed the "Moral Perspectives & Foundations Scale" & found that perspective-specific moral foundations do a better job at predicting political outcomes than perspectives or MFTs alone. Open Access: doi.org/10.1027/1864...

Combining Moral Foundations and Justice Sensitivity Perspectives to Understand Political Orientation
Lucas J. E. Köhler
, Ulf Steinberg
, Maxim Egorov
, Claudia Peus
, and Mario Gollwitzer
Abstract: Political orientation is systematically related to individuals’ endorsement of different moral domains. Yet, current findings suggest that differences between conservatives and liberals can also be explained by a sensitivity to self-oriented or other-oriented moral transgressions. We argue that conceptualizing moral foundations as perspective-specific advances our understanding of differences in moral judgments across the political spectrum. We test a new instrument measuring perspective-specific moral foundations in a nationally representative German sample (N = 2,042). Our findings indicate that (a) an Integrated Foundations × Perspective Model fits the data better than models only representing moral foundations or moral perspectives and (b) a self-oriented moral sensitivity is related to right-wing political orientation, while an other-oriented moral sensitivity is related to left-wing political orientation across all moral foundations.
