At Political Psychology (@ispp-pops.bsky.social), we typically publish empirical articles, but we do have other options!
One exciting option are Dialogues, that put 2+ books in conversation with one another.
When it comes to public opinion is "What do you think?" better explained by "Do you think?" Tappin & McKay study when opinions are shaped by information, effortful thinking, & party cues. Read for how information minimizes the party effect & the questions to keep thinking on: doi.org/10.1111/pops...
Can cross-cutting beliefs help dial down polarization? Sander & Degner examine the effects that counterstereotypes (eg, a pro-gun control Republican) have on how partisans view and categorize those opinions. Read open-access for more on their experiments: doi.org/10.1111/pops...
Anyone can say "can't we all just get along?" but *how* is another question. Moritz et al. study the use of metacognitive training (MCT) to reduce hostilities between two polarized voter groups in Germany, with measurable results on both sides of the divide. Read open access: doi.org/10.1111/pops...
Lions, Tigers, and... Futbol? Oh my! From our April issue, Singh et al. try to isolate the effects of emotion on citizens' satisfaction with democracy through reactions to cultural phenomena like watching The Lion King or experiencing a win/loss for your favorite team. Read online: buff.ly/ifYLPcL
We know psychological factors & partisan identity both contribute to conspiracy beliefs, but when & how do they work together? Yair et al. study this interaction on political & nonpolitical conspiracies, finding an interaction effect only on the former. Read open-access: doi.org/10.1111/pops...
When does national victimhood "expire"? Główczewski et al. study the psychology behind Polish and Greek citizens' support for WWII reparations from Germany. Read their piece from our April issue for their findings on what we can learn when calls for restitution surface doi.org/10.1111/pops...

😯 @bertous.bsky.social and I used a conjoint experiment to investigate whether name-based preferences influence adoption decisions.
We take Catalonia as the case study, where linguistic boundaries overlap with contested political identities.
