Rituals signal mate quality
Peter Maňo, Radek Kundt, and Eva Kundtová Klocová, together with Dimitris Xygalatas, published an article on rituals as signals of mate quality in the journal Current Research in Ecological and Social Psychology.
A new research called “SACRIFICE” has been just launched
Thanks to the generous support from the Operational Programme “Research, Development and Education”, we have just launched a new project “Scarring Rituals, Fierce Intergroup Conflict, and Extreme Prosociality” (SACRIFICE). Martin Lang will use this opportunity to study the role that extreme rituals play in intergroup conflict.
Under the supervision of David Václavík (Masaryk Uni) and Ben Purzycki (Aarhus Uni), Martin will study how participation in costly rituals affects the willingness to sacrifice one’s resources during inter-group conflict, both in the lab and in Mauritius.
