Why We Should Stop Trying to Fix Women: How Context Shapes and Constrains Women's Career Trajectories
Annu Rev Psychol. 2024 Jan 18;75:555-572. doi: 10.1146/annurev-psych-032620-030938.ABSTRACTIn this review we examine two classes of interventions designed to achieve workplace gender equality: (a) those designed to boost motivations and ambition, such as those that aim to attract more women into roles where they are underrepresented; and (b) those that try to provide women with needed abilities to achieve these positions. While such initiatives are generally well meaning, they tend to be based upon (and reinforce) stereotypes of what women lack. Such a deficit model leads to interventions that attempt to "fix" women rather...

Beyond the Tricks: The Science and Comparative Cognition of Magic
Annu Rev Psychol. 2024 Jan 18;75:269-293. doi: 10.1146/annurev-psych-012723-100945.ABSTRACTMagic is an art form that has fascinated humans for centuries. Recently, the techniques used by magicians to make their audience experience the impossible have attracted the attention of psychologists, who, in just a couple of decades, have produced a large amount of research regarding how these effects operate, focusing on the blind spots in perception and roadblocks in cognition that magic techniques exploit. Most recently, this investigation has given a pathway to a new line of research that uses magic effects to explore the cogni...

Norm Dynamics: Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Social Norm Emergence, Persistence, and Change
This article provides an interdisciplinary review of the emerging field of norm dynamics by integrating research across the social sciences through a cultural-evolutionary lens. After reviewing key distinctions in theory and method, we discuss research on norm psychology-the neural and cognitive underpinnings of social norm learning and acquisition. We then overview how norms emerge and spread through intergenerational transmission, social networks, and group-level ecological and historical factors. Next, we discuss multilevel factors that lead norms to persist, change, or erode over time. We also consider cultural mismatc...

Social Media and Morality
Annu Rev Psychol. 2024 Jan 18;75:311-340. doi: 10.1146/annurev-psych-022123-110258. Epub 2023 Oct 31.ABSTRACTNearly five billion people around the world now use social media, and this number continues to grow. One of the primary goals of social media platforms is to capture and monetize human attention. One means by which individuals and groups can capture attention and drive engagement on these platforms is by sharing morally and emotionally evocative content. We review a growing body of research on the interrelationship of social media and morality as well its consequences for individuals and society. Moral content often...

The Neuroscience of Human and Artificial Intelligence Presence
Annu Rev Psychol. 2024 Jan 18;75:433-466. doi: 10.1146/annurev-psych-013123-123421. Epub 2023 Oct 31.ABSTRACTTwo decades of social neuroscience and neuroeconomics research illustrate the brain mechanisms that are engaged when people consider human beings, often in comparison to considering artificial intelligence (AI) as a nonhuman control. AI as an experimental control preserves agency and facilitates social interactions but lacks a human presence, providing insight into brain mechanisms that are engaged by human presence and the presence of AI. Here, I review this literature to determine how the brain instantiates human ...
