Journal ArticleDOI
Why people prefer unequal societies
TL;DR: Inequality and unfairness are not the same thing as discussed by the authors, and people are not bothered by economic inequality, but rather by economic unfairness, which is the opposite of ours.
Journal ArticleDOI
More than a body: mind perception and the nature of objectification.
TL;DR: It is found that focusing on someone's body reduces perceptions of agency but increases perceptions of experience, which suggest that a body focus does not cause objectification per se but, instead, leads to a redistribution of perceived mind.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-equality: Social comparison in young children
TL;DR: 5- and 6-year-olds will spitefully take a cost to ensure that another's welfare falls below their own, which suggests that the development of fairness includes overcoming an initial social comparison preference for others to get less relative to oneself.
Journal ArticleDOI
Visual disengagement in the infant siblings of children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
TL;DR: Analysis of patterns of visual attention (gazing) in 6-month-old ASD-sibs and the siblings of typically developing children during the Face-to-Face/Still-Face Protocol shows no deficits in visual interest to their parents' faces, but greater interest than COMP-sIBs in non-face stimuli.
Journal ArticleDOI
Not Noble Savages after all: Limits to early altruism.
TL;DR: Much of what is most impressive about adult morality arises not through inborn capacities but through a fraught developmental process that involves exposure to culture and the exercise of rationality.
