Selfie-Probing Psychologist Finds You Might Be Even Vainer Than You Thought
When researchers set out to study the habits of selfie-takers on social media, no amount of overestimation could have prepared them for the high opinions people seem to have of themselves online.
Personality and Social Psychology’s Hidden Gender Gap
Does having more women in the social and personality psychology field translate into more high-impact publications by women, more citations of these articles, and more awards received by women?
Children’s Responses to Inequality Vary Around the World
Do children have a more consistent sense of fairness than adults? Or is the aversion to getting less more deeply rooted in development than the aversion to getting more?
