recent research

An ongoing trawl through Kevin Lewis' blog:
  • The market left to itself might not spark the greatest innovation.
  • How non-cooperators can promote cooperation.
  • We're all communitarians at heart.
  • How to keep your group in line: just punish the least compliant guy.
  • We don't expect people to trust us, but we do expect them to return our trust.
  • We sit by people who look like us and marry people who vote like us.
  • Priming "relatedness" brings out the volunteer and donor in us - as does feeling more powerful and seeing our movements mirrored.
  • The power of metaphor: we prefer in "North" hoods.
  • "Cause marketing" may be hurting causes - and making us feel worse when we donate.
  • When it comes to donating we tend to prefer writing checks for the latest disaster.
  • Off-cycle elections give special interest groups an extra edge.
