Creative Potential Peaks During Ovulation
Recent studies suggest that women's divergent thinking, an indicator of creative potential, peaks during ovulation, potentially as a signal to attract mates. However, given that arousal is a key factor facilitating creative cognition, this increase may be a by‐product of general heightened arousal during ovulation. This hypothesis has not been fully explored, as most research relies on self‐reported measures of arousal, which is a significant lim…
Some Animals Are More Equal Than Others”
Animal harm often results in lenient legal responses, with prosecutions primarily targeting offenses against companion animals, while cases involving farm animals remain significantly underreported. This study examined pet‐favoritism bias in moral judgments, highlighting how animal category can shape perceptions of cruelty. Participants ( N = 569) evaluated sadistic harm toward either pet or farm animals by rating proposed prison sentences and mo…
Smile and the world smiles (and trusts) with you
Numerous studies have shown that the processes underlying trait judgments can be influenced by concurrent affect processing. The present project explores the role of emotional mimicry in trait attribution. Across three experiments, we asked participants to assess social characteristics of faces expressing happiness, sadness, and anger. In Experiments 1 and 3, we used facial electromyography to predict participants' inferences about trustworthines…
“Anger? No, thank you. I don't mimic it”
Research indicates that emotional mimicry predominantly occurs in response to affiliative displays, such as happiness, while the mimicry of antagonistic displays, like anger, is seldom observed in social contexts. However, contextual factors, including the identity of the displayer (e.g. social similarity with the observer) and whose action triggered the emotional reaction (i.e. to whom display is directed), can modulate the meaning of the displa…
