Messenger–Message Discordance
Sharing messages about group-based disparities is an important strategy for raising awareness. However, not all messengers are evaluated alike. We predict that perceived motivations of messengers depend on who they are and how they speak up. Across one pilot and three pre-registered experiments ( N = 2,240), we show that when messengers present group-based disparities in the workplace, their demographic identity and their message content jointly …
A large-scale field experiment on participatory decision-making in China
Altering the past to shape the future
One strategy for decision-making involves the process known as case-based reasoning, where individuals retrieve past decisions in similar cases, compare the new and old situation, and adapt previous decisions to the new context. However, remembering past cases is a selective process. Research on retrieval-induced forgetting found that retrieving a subset of information about a certain topic causes forgetting of related information. In two experim…

Participatory work structure is a popular concept but its causal impacts in real-world work groups have heretofore been unquantified and research has been Western-centric. We test the hypothesis that participatory group structure increases productivity for blue-collar workers in a context where participation is not a normative default. We conducted a pre-registered longitudinal field experiment with 65 Chinese factory groups (1752 workers). Half …
Admired Rich or Resented Rich? How Two Cultures Vary in Envy
Rich people inhabit a distinct social category that may elicit universal images or perhaps different perceptions in different cultures. Whereas inequality research has mostly focused on lower socioeconomic classes, the current research investigates cultural variations of prejudices about rich groups, toward understanding societal dynamics. Three studies investigate stereotype content and evaluations of rich people in China and the United States, …
