There are several, often simultaneous, mechanisms (e.g., social influence, shared environments) through which such links between social connection and similarity arise, including homophily, or the tendency for similar people to attract one another. While past research has found that people use similarity heuristics to structure their mental representations of social networks (predicting that friends are likely to be similar to each other), it is unknown if people assume such similarity arises through homophily, specifically. Here, we tested if people assume that homophily will shape their own and others' future friendships. Participants (<em>N</em><sub>Total</sub> = 560) learned how (i) trustworthy and (ii) trusting various partners were through repeated trust games. Participants predicted which partners would become friends with one another and which partners they would become friends with themselves if they were to meet in person. Across two studies and both trait measures, we found that participants were significantly more likely to predict that partners who behaved similarly would later become friends compared to those who behaved dissimilarly. Interestingly, we found that participants were significantly more likely to predict that they would become friends with highly trustworthy and highly trusting partners compared to highly untrustworthy or highly untrusting partners, regardless of their own behavioral tendencies or even their own self-perceptions. These findings suggest that for trust-related traits, people assume homophily will govern others' relationships but not necessarily their own. Such expectations likely shape how people approach or foster new friendships for themselves and between others.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48441,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Experimental Social Psychology","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 104784"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144595723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This dominance is also mirrored in individuals' spontaneous tendency to see a group of individuals as exemplars of racial categories. Traditional models of intergroup cognition suggest that people better remember in-group members (the cross-race-effect, CRE) and more quickly and accurately categorize out-group members (the other-race categorization advantage, ORCA) due to differences in perceptual salience and functional relevance. However, these findings were mainly based on White populations and may therefore not fully capture the perceptions of racialized minorities, such as Black individuals in the US. Given their markedly different experiences with systemic inequality, minority group members may individuate majority group members to the same extent as, or even more than, their in-group. The present research examined cross-race categorization and individuation among Black and White US Americans (<em>N</em> = 511) using the “Who Said What?” task (Taylor et al., 1978) combined with multinomial processing tree modeling (Klauer & Wegener, 1998). White participants showed stronger out-group categorization and in-group individuation, aligning with the traditional intergroup perspective. In contrast, Black participants displayed attenuated or reversed patterns, favoring in-group categorization and out-group individuation. While interracial contact and perceived racial identity threat had no effects, racial identification amplified racial categorization in White participants and reinforced the individuation of Black faces among Black participants. These findings underscore the importance of considering racialized majority-minority dynamics in models of intergroup cognition.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48441,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Experimental Social Psychology","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 104763"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144230419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Targeting the vulnerable kin of powerful figures has been used to inflict psychological pain, from ancient China to modern-day North Korea, to social media in the West. Six studies explore VKD with both experimental and field data. Across 562,066 tweets directed at US presidential candidates, people derogate politicians' loved ones when those loved ones seem more emotionally vulnerable than the candidate themselves (Study 1). In experiments, people engage in VKD when a politician seems more emotionally affected by attacks on family than on himself (Studies 2 and 4), and when people are motivated to inflict suffering on the public figure (Study 5). At the same time, people are less likely to endorse VKD when reminded that it targets innocent individuals (Studies 3 and 5). Together, these studies reveal a central psychological tension: VKD is satisfying when it seems to hurt an otherwise invulnerable leader, but people still dislike harming the innocent. This dynamic helps explain a persistent, toxic feature of modern political discourse: when people seek to harm public figures by attacking their loved ones.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48441,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Experimental Social Psychology","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 104781"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144481071","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the impact of political rhetoric on future intergroup contact remains unexplored. This paper addresses this gap by examining how rhetoric influences contact readiness towards Muslims. We conducted two experiments in which non-Muslim participants were randomly assigned to one of three conditions: exposure to positive political rhetoric about Muslims, negative rhetoric, or a control condition. In Study 1, exposure to negative rhetoric did not significantly affect contact readiness. In contrast, positive rhetoric led to more positive perceptions of future contact, with higher intergroup trust and lower intergroup anxiety. Study 2, using a higher-powered sample, also showed positive rhetoric increased positive contact perceptions but only linked to intergroup trust. It also found positive rhetoric led to greater intentions for future contact. Negative rhetoric continued to show no direct effect on contact readiness but had conditional effects; it predicted higher intergroup anxiety and less positive contact perceptions among individuals with lower social dominance orientation. Overall, findings indicate political rhetoric, serving as a form of vicarious intergroup contact, can influence public willingness for intergroup interactions.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48441,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Experimental Social Psychology","volume":"120 ","pages":"Article 104780"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144271346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Across ten studies (five are incentive-compatible), we document a systematic <em>overshooting bias</em>, whereby the resource-seekers in the pool-choice dilemma are more likely to choose the large pool than normatively warranted, thereby sacrificing their own earnings. This research is a major extension of the prior work by Hsee et al. (2021) who found an opposite, undershooting effect in a similar dilemma. The current work offers a new look at the dilemma, with a more comprehensive theory that not only explains the overshooting effect found in this research, but also identifies its moderators and reconciles the opposite findings between this and the prior work. Contrary to what the prior work found, we predict and find that people in the dilemma generally overshoot rather than undershoot, unless they are explicitly prompted to predict the choice of their counterparts or the dilemma is framed in such a way that naturally prompts the players to consider the choice of their counterparts.

Study 2 demonstrates that perceiving an ally-identified man as sincerely motivated determines his impact on women's identity-safety and retention. Studies 3–4 examine how the order in which women learn of a man's stated motivation to identify as an ally and his behavioral response to workplace sexism inform women's perceptions of the man's sincerity, hypocrisy, women's anticipated workplace treatment, and broader perceptions of the organization.
