Responses to political partisans are shaped by a COVID-19-sensitive disease avoidance psychology: A longitudinal investigation of functional flexibility
Am Psychol. 2024 Mar 28. doi: 10.1037/amp0001318. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHow do natural changes in disease avoidance motivation shape thoughts about and behaviors toward ingroup and outgroup members? During the COVID-19 pandemic, political party affiliation has been a strong predictor in the United States of COVID-19-related opinions, attitudes, and behaviors. Using a six-wave longitudinal panel survey of representative Americans (on Prolific, N = 1,124, from April 2020 to February 2021), we explored how naturally occurring changes across time in both risks of COVID-19 infection and people's disease avoidance motiva...

Measuring gender in elementary school-aged children in the United States: Promising practices and barriers to moving beyond the binary
Am Psychol. 2024 Mar 21. doi: 10.1037/amp0001306. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHow gender identity is assessed directly shapes how students are supported in elementary schools in the United States. Despite the existence of gender diversity, calls for more inclusive science, and recommendations from national research associations and societies to incorporate and emphasize the voices of individuals with diverse gender identities, most studies exploring gender disparities in education have relied heavily on the assumption of a gender binary. As a result, the omission of diverse gender identities from educational research in ...

Facial recognition technology and human raters can predict political orientation from images of expressionless faces even when controlling for demographics and self-presentation
Am Psychol. 2024 Mar 21. doi: 10.1037/amp0001295. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCarefully standardized facial images of 591 participants were taken in the laboratory while controlling for self-presentation, facial expression, head orientation, and image properties. They were presented to human raters and a facial recognition algorithm: both humans (r = .21) and the algorithm (r = .22) could predict participants' scores on a political orientation scale (Cronbach's α = .94) decorrelated with age, gender, and ethnicity. These effects are on par with how well job interviews predict job success, or alcohol drives aggressivenes...
