Against all expectations (irony), there is no link between immigration and crime. #sociology #economy #immigration #criminality #discrimination

A burden of poverty (among others). Low socio-economic status is associated with poorer brain and cognitive development. This could be due to increased stress and a less stimulating environment. #psychology #neuroscience #socialscience

Benevolent and hostile #sexism across different domains. It clearly highlights the complexity of discrimination! #equality #discrimination #socialpsychology #psychology

This diagram illustrates the many areas in which sexism has been studied. By extension, it gives an overview of the many aspects of our lives that are affected by sexism. #SocialPsych #sexism

Intersectionality challenges the way we study identity in psychology. Yet it seems to be essential to highlight human complexity. Maybe reinvesting in the field of cross-categorisation would be beneficial too. #SocialPsych #psychology #minority #intersectionnality #identity #diversity

Conscientization of social cryptomnesia may help · to enhance positive attitude toward activist groups, · to reduce hostile behaviours. Social cryptomnesia is certainly one of those concepts that deserves more attention. #SocialPsych #sexism #feminism #minority

Better words for better work. As gender is a complex and moving concept, getting an accurate terminology is essential. Here is an interesting proposition of @floralashes.bsky.social about trans/cis dichotomy. #SocialPsych #gender #LGBTQIA+ #sociology

An interesting study of how we manage potentially contradictory identities. Here about gay Muslims men in Pakistan.

Poverty is a burden in so many ways. Poverty can reduce cognitive functioning, possibly because of cognitive load, perpetuating poverty through poorer decision-making. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Is presenting gender neutral? Not really...
