Every year, European Human Behaviour and Evolution Association (EHBEA) is awarding a grant to support student research. Our Ph.D. student Radim Chvaja is one of its recipients this year.
The funding will allow Radim to study religious costly signalling in the cultural context of Maha Shivaratri pilgrimage in Mauritius, testing experimentally whether pilgrimage costs make the pilgrims more trustworthy as perceived by their peers.
Martin Lang received the Czech National Foundation’s Junior Star grant with his project titled Computing Religious Devotion: How Reinforcing Supernatural Beliefs Affects Normative Models in the Mind.
The vice-rector for Research and Doctoral Studies at Masaryk University has awarded two LEVYNA graduates - Dan Řezníček and Radim Chvaja with a price for excellent results during their Ph.D. studies.
