TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated individuals' willingness to engage in prescribed and discretionary behaviors, as well as country-level and individual-level factors that might drive such behavioral intentions, and found that the more people endorsed moral principles of fairness and care (vs. loyalty and authority), the more they were inclined to report trust in science, which, in turn, statistically predicted prescribed, discretionary behavioral intentions.

TL;DR: The authors predicted and found that nouns, more so than adjectives, facilitate descriptor-congruen inferences but inhibit incongruent inferences, suggesting that despite the surface similarity of nouns and adjective, nouns have a more powerful impact on person perception.

TL;DR: It is found that German and Portuguese participants’ visual representations of European faces resembled the appearance typical for their own national identity, even among participants who explicitly denied that one nation was more typical of Europe than the other.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that the cognitive representation of the superordinate category is based on ingroup traits and that this representation is context dependent.

TL;DR: German participants rated how typical a series of attributes was for the ingroup, an inclusive category, the self, and an outgroup (i.e., Italians), showing that ingroup projection is stronger than social projection, but only when typical ingroup attributes are concerned.
