Great tool to discover related articles based on one article you enter! connectedpapers.com/
I recently discovered this website that builds a graph of papers that are connected based on a paper you enter. Super helpful and interesting! Especially as grad-student starting to dive into some new topics this is an easy way to get an overview.

Gossipers don't always tell the truth, but not always maliciously. In this experimental paper, gossipers exaggerate the good behavior of trustees, in apparent tempt to stoke the fire of indirect reciprocity.

📰Recommended reading.
In this paper, BCCP Fellow @RobertStber shows that many subjects prefer willful ignorance to avoid having to incur in altruistic punishment. #EconTwitter #SocialNorms #SocialPreferences

Motivated misremembering:
New paper finds that people tend to recall being more generous in the past than they actually were, even when they are incentivized to recall their decisions accurately.

Why are rumours always coming from a “friend of a friend”? It’s the sweet spot between plausibility and risking our reputation if we claimed it came from a friend (or indeed directly from us) if the rumour turns out false—cool study by @sacha_altay et al: buff.ly/317eu6d

Fascinating lab-in-the-field study on norms and corruption by @NCKobis!
1/9 Our new paper is out in @BPPjournal
In short:
Lab-in-the-field study showing that Informing people about decreasing bribery levels in their community changes beliefs and willingness to bribe in an incentivized corruption game.

Fantastic discussion of the psychology behind why people don’t speak out against, and even defend, norms they secretly despise (via @notsmartblog)
It will change how you think about binge drinking, free speech on campuses, cult behavior, and wine snobs.

In human society, our reputation is extremely important. Sometimes the #motivation to look good is stronger than the motivation to do good. In an interesting new paper, WZB economist, Kai Barron, shows that people are willing to lie to appear honest. bit.ly/33Nlgyv (PDF)
