Political Considerations in Nonpolitical Decisions
The Intersection of Racial and Partisan Discrimination
Social decisions are often imbued with biases that can lead to discrimination against certain groups of people. Racial minorities frequently find themselves on the receiving end of such discrimination.

In this article, we use an e-mail correspondence study to explore the impact of rac…

When people perceive the day to be warmer than usual, they tend to overestimate the number of warm days throughout the year, and to report increased belief in and worry about global warming. For many, this is normatively concerning because a single day’s perceived temperature fluctuation is not representative of longer-te…
