Hi everyone,
Several folks in the SDT community are planning to attend JPS 2022
this year (June 2-4). To help folks coordinate, find each other,
and celebrate the works/awards of our community members, we wanted
to compile a list of people's presentations and/or plans.
Regardless of whether it is directly SDT-related, please consider
sharing. It's nice to see what everyone is up to!
If you are planning to attend JPS 2022, please fill out this brief form by 5/27: https://forms.gle/S2MSAjkH82vdvbVe9
We will compile all the info from your survey responses and send out a consolidated announcement to the listserv on May 31 to let everyone know who will be there and when/where their talks/posters/etc will be.
Thanks, all!

Paper Session 6: Ethics and Equality
Friday June 3, 2:00 PM–3:15 PM, Ballroom A2
The Role of Norms on Judging Online Social Behavior
As social media use among adolescents continues to increase, it is crucial that we understand how adolescents and young adults respond to online norms violations in different domain social interactions (i.e. moral, social conventional, and multifaceted) because these rules may be upheld differently online. The current study (n= 142; 121 emerging adults, 21 adolescents, with data collection ongoing) asks participants to respond to and judge different social media behavior, along with similar behavior in an in-person context. The influence of peer norms was investigated by creating conditions in which the majority of peers' comments on social media are either critical or supportive of the behavior. In initial analysis, we found that, across ages, comments critical of moral violations were rated as more acceptable by participants than comments critical of the other domains. Peer norms impacted the different domains in different ways. For conventional violations, participants rejected norms, such that critical peer comments on posts with majority-supportive peer comments were rated as more acceptable than critical peer comments on posts with majority-critical peer comments. For multifaceted violations, peer norms did not influence judgements of others' critical peer comments, such that there was no significant difference between critical peer comments on posts with majority-supportive peer comments and critical peer comments on posts with majority-critical peer comments. Additionally, critical peer comments made online were judged as less acceptable than those made in-person, showing that responses to behavior in-person versus online differs, but not in the expected direction.
Research Ethics: Reporting on Group Differences
Research into group differences can be harmful in that it can introduce or support harmful stereotypes. Should potentially harmful research meet a high standard of research quality before it is published? To assess whether consumers of psychology research consider potential harm to marginalized populations as well as research quality, psychology subject pool participants (n = 81) judged various research summaries. Both the quality of the research and whether the research topic was value-laden (e.g. IQ) or value-neutral (e.g. collectivism) was varied. Overall, participants were sensitive to research quality. When participants were shown poor methods, the average quality rating was 2.15 (on a scale from 1 to 7). Moderate quality methods had an average rating of 3.21, and high quality methods were rated 4.40. However, participants were less likely to judge topics differently depending on whether the finding could be potentially harmful or not. That is, value-laden research topics were rated as similarly acceptable to publish as neutral topics. Across all topics and qualities, value-laden topics were rated 3.15 while neutral topics were rated 3.36. Despite presenting our research summaries with descriptions suggesting that a historically disempowered group had lower scores on important value-laden qualities, participants did not have a substantially higher standard of evidence for these potentially harmful findings. Justifications will also be reported and discussed.
