Su Dharmapala Voted Yes & #AI Chick Su, Frank Mols has done extensive research into the attiudes of the wealthy which presents compelling evidence of the 'wealth paradox', where economic prosperity can also fuel prejudice, social unrest, and intergroup hostility. #auspol cambridgeblog.org/2017/06/the-we…



My final & favorite dissertation paper is published at EJPR journal!🎉 I analyze qual interviews w/ radical right voters for perceptions about discrimination of immigrants, women & LGBTQI+ people. 🧵⬇️ shorturl.at/pqvA2

What is #radicalright voters' position in society? Narratives like "left behind”, “losers”, or “alternative” suggest they are some marginalized group at the fringes of society. In my new OA publication in Political Psychology, I argue against this myth. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/po…

Why do voters consider political parties necessary but still dislike them so much? A first suggestion can be found in OA article EJPR journal in which we (with Helene Helboe) develop a new theoretical model with two kinds of qualitative data. Link: : t.ly/_Ngpj

🚨Very happy to see this paper published in GPIR : doi.org/10.1177/136843… With all-star team Jolanda Charlie Crimston Dr Hema Preya Selvanathan Belen Alvarez Frank Mols, we examined how perceived national status threat relates to the desire for different kind of strong leaders 👇


Michael Pascoe 💧Michael West Michael, Frank Mols Frank Mols has done outstanding research on the Wealth Paradox - economic prosperity and the hardening of attitudes. His work shows that the wealthier people get the meaner they get. The media should be interviewing him. #TheWealthParadox


Nice to be part of the UQ POLSIS / ASPI / APR2P Centre cohort at the #Disinfo_pacific conference with John Fowler, Frank Mols, Dr Fitriana, and me. Much discussion about prevention of disinformation and hate speech in the Pacific.
