We are delighted to share that two members of the LEVYNA team have recently received major awards recognizing their outstanding research.
Previous studies, primarily aimed at the university population in the US, suggested that atheism could be related to a so-called analytical cognitive style. According to a new intercultural analysis, carried in collaboration with LEVYNA, it turns out that this link does not apply as strongly as the US pattern suggested. On the contrary, the study suggests that it is not possible to fully explain the existence of atheism through individual differences in cognitive style, the influence of the cultural environment and socialization must be taken into account as it plays a key role.
