A theoretical model of multistakeholder conflict resolution over sustainability issues integrating Indigenous peoples’ perspectives as rightsholders
Purpose This study aims to identify the determinants of conflict resolution over sustainability issues involving Indigenous peoples. While Indigenous peoples’ stewardship of nature as well as their rights to participate in any decision-making regarding their lives are recognized by the United Nations, sustainability (e.g. conservation policy, livelihood issues and land use rights) remains a major conflict between Indigenous rightsholders and non-…
Wisdom in action
Twentieth century boosts in creativity and intelligence advanced society in many ways, but humanity still faces major challenges: New and increasingly complex collective problems include climate change, widespread misinformation and political polarization, and the aftermath of the first global pandemic experience. In this article, we argue that these problems cannot be solved by creativity and intelligence alone-they require wisdom . Research on …
Mind the gap
We draw from theory on motivated reasoning to suggest that men would be more prone toward gender pay gap scepticism (PGS) than women because doing so maintains a valued but illusory belief that society is currently fair. Integrating theory on wisdom and wise reasoning —a self‐transcendent thinking process composed of intellectual humility, contextualism, perspectivism and dialecticism—we also hypothesised that men who engaged in stronger (vs. wea…
Determined Yet Dehumanized
Desire is part of human nature, and being vulnerable to desire is part of what differentiates humans from machines. However, individuals with high self-control—who demonstrate impressive resistance to their desires—may appear to lack such human vulnerability. We propose that people perceived as high in self-control tend to be dehumanized as more robotic, relating to potentially negative social consequences. Across six studies ( N = 2,007), people…
The Tribal Games
This paper builds on Smith and Hanley's finding that Trump's supporters were not solely driven by demographics and economic distress, but predominantly by prejudices and preference for an overt authoritarian leadership. Our longitudinal study of the 2020 US Presidential election extended their study to test additional propositions about tribalism by considering two intergroup factors: an orientation to protestors and minorities and conservative v…
The Science of Wisdom in a Polarized World
Interest in wisdom in the cognitive sciences, psychology, and education has been paralleled by conceptual confusions about its nature and assessment. To clarify these issues and promote consensus in the field, wisdom researchers met in Toronto in July of 2019, resolving disputes through discussion. Guided by a survey of scientists who study wisdom-related constructs, we established a common wisdom model, observing that empirical approaches to wis…
