Our paper in Nature (@mkwittmann.bsky.social et al.): the brain does not only process the *identity* of a person but primarily our *relationship* to them. Even on a neural level, who someone is *in relation to others* is key. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨🚨New paper out at with Jörg Gross & @dedreu.bsky.social: The nasty neighbor effect in humans. Across 51 societies and >14,000 participants, and against pre-registered predictions, we find that humans compete more within than between groups:

The nasty neighbor effect in humans

Humans not only cooperate but also compete more with in-group members than with out-group members and strangers.

@lhoenig.bsky.social 's groundbreaking project (the first from her PhD, with me and @dedreu.bsky.social ) is out, in JEP:G no less! See the comments for open access links.

Thanks to JEP:G, my collab. Ruthie Pliskin & Carsten De Dreu, and some constructive reviewers, our paper sees the light of day!

Opponents want to win no matter what. These opponents, that’s you and me
