Jesse Graham found himself overly conscientious and a bit of an outcast. His desire to fit in brought him into the illegal substance world where he found a place providing stuff to make friends with other kids, often older than him. This trend continued for many years until his former mother in law pointed him to The Other Side Academy. Thanks to the core values he lives, he is still there, working to help others find their way using the values he has come to love and live to. Now, the leader in one of The Other Side Academy's new ventures, Jesse's confidence and purpose is evident as he tells his story.

Another year in the books! Sure, there was a lot of wild stuff in 2021--an insurrection, COVID vaccine rollouts, a new president, another installment in the Tiger King franchise...and my daughter was born!But through it all, we had Opinion Science. This year saw a bunch of new listeners, amazing guests, and some ambitious episodes. Your support has meant a lot.So even though I'm a couple weeks behind on this, I wanted put together another "best of" episode, featuring notable moments from the podcast in 2021. As I said in the 2020 "best of" episode, it's not truly a “best of” per se because I really am attached to every episode. S eriously, there's something in every episode of the show that has stuck with me. So instead, I've chosen some particularly meaningful episodes for me, fan favorites, and moments that highlight what this show is all about.If you're new to the show, this is a great place to start! And if you've been listening since the beginning, join me on some fun memories from this year.-AndyFeatured 2021 episodes:Episode 30: “Us vs. Them” with Jay Van BavelEpisode 32: Moralizing and Attention with Ana GantmanEpisode 35: Ambivalence with Iris SchneiderEpisode 36: Negotiation with Kwame ChristianEpisode 37: Influence with Robert CialdiniEpisode 44: The Contact HypothesisEpisode 47: Moral Foundations & Political Opinion with Jesse Graham

Jesse Graham studies human morality and what it means for our political opinions. He's an Associate Professor of Management at the Eccles School of Business at the University of Utah. As a graduate student with Jonathan Haidt, he helped develop Moral Foundations Theory (MFT), which has gone on to be a massively influential theory of morality and how it develops. One of Jesse's key insights was that these moral foundations help explain the divides between liberal and conservative people, which has implications for all kinds of political opinions and pressing topics like political polarization.In our conversation, Jesse fills us in on the early days of his research and the development of MFT over time, walks through the implications of MFT for political ideology, and reflects on where the theory is now.Things that come up in this episode:Divisions between liberal and conservatives: antipathy (Iyengar et al., 2019), geographic segregation (Motyl et al., 2014), avoiding each other's opinions (Frimer, Skitka, & Motyl, 2017), and even shorter Thanksgiving dinners (Chen & Rohla, 2018; Frimer & Skitka, 2020)Jonathan Haidt's “Social Intuitionist Model” of morality (Haidt, 2001)Moral Foundations Theory (Graham et al., 2013; for a useful overview, check out MoralFoundations.org)Values beyond the moral (Schwartz, 1992)How adult political leanings can be predicted from observations of them as kids (Block & Block, 2006)Ideology and geographic preferences (Motyl et al., 2020)Moral foundations and the basis of vaccine attitudes (Amin et al., 2017; Karimi-Malekabadi et al., 2021), needle exchange attitudes (Christie et al., 2019), and a variety of political attitudes including abortion (Koleva et al., 2012)For a transcript of this episode, visit: http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/episode/moral-foundations-political-opinion-with-jesse-grahamCheck out my new audio course on Knowable: "The Science of Persuasion."Learn more about Opinion Science at http://opinionsciencepodcast.com/ and follow @OpinionSciPod on Twitter.

What made some societies so individualistic, so democratic, and so rich? The short version of Joe Henrich's answer is: religion. By undermining kin-based networks, universalizing religions (especially Western Christianity) prompted the “big innovation” of impersonal trust, altered the Western brain and laid the foundations for free markets, geographical mobility and democratic institutions. In other words, some people became WEIRD (Western, educated, industrialized, rich, democratic). We discuss how the concept of coevolution helps to get us past the tired nature v. nurture distinction, the role of culture in shaping our biology, how polygamy causes a “math problem of surplus men”, the rise of the incel movement along with feminism, how monogamous marriage lowers testosterone (and why that's a good thing), The Life of Brian, morality and politics and much more.   Joseph Henrich Dr. Joseph Henrich is Chair of the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology and Professor of Human Evolutionary Biology at the University of Harvard and Principal Investigator of the Culture, Cognition, & Coevolution Lab.    Joe's research focuses on evolutionary approaches to psychology, decision-making and culture, and includes topics related to cultural learning, cultural evolution, culture-gene coevolution, human sociality, prestige, leadership, large-scale cooperation, religion and the emergence of complex human institutions. His latest book is The WEIRDest People in the World: How the West Became Psychologically Peculiar and Particularly Prosperous (2020).  More Henrich The Secret of Our Success: How Culture Is Driving Human Evolution, Domesticating Our Species, and Making Us Smarter (2015). “Do Markets Make Us Fair, Trusting, and Cooperative, or Bring out the Worst in Us?”, Evonomics (August, 2016)   Also mentioned Michael Tomasello's work on humans as “imitation machines” especially his book The Cultural Origins of Human Cognition (1999) Here is a good summary of Auguste Comte's “religion of humanity”  “Longitudinal evidence that fatherhood decreases testosterone in human males”, Lee T.

He’s most known for his work with Jonathan Haidt in developing Moral Foundations Theory—a theory that basic moral foundations guide a wide-array of behaviors and ideological preferences, political ones. In this podcast, Jesse and I talk about his experience in developing the theory, what theoretical challenges it faces, and his work to apply MFT to behavioral nudging. 3:10- The Emotional Dog paper by Haidt 7:10- Joseph & Haidt 2004 paper 8:30- Paper on Libertarian foundations 10:00- Paper about criteria for foundations 13:00- Moral Foundations Questionnaire, scale development paper 14:50- Steven Pinker's New York Times Op-ed 16:00- Joshua Greene's 2001 "trolley-ology" paper 30:30- Morteza Dehghani researches use of foundation-language 34:40- Larry Nucci critiques MFT for its relativism 37:00- Martha Nussbaum's book critiquing disgust-based moral action 46:00- Example articles that call disgust "irrelevant" or suggest it taints judgments: Schnall et al., 2008; Zhong et al, 2010 CORRECTION: study of "illegitimate power distributions" was NOT based on MFT, as Amber had said. 50:00- Feinberg & Willer papers on nudging conservatives and liberals 53:30- John Jost critique of MFT legitimizing conservative foundations 55:50- Jesse's response normative MFT claims 1:00:00- Jesse's vaccine hesitancy paper

Jesse Graham joins us for part 2 of our discussion on the nature of morality, and his recent paper on Moral Foundations Theory. He highlights the key components of MFT, defends himself against our accusations of weaseling out of the normative implications of MFT, champions "Synechdoche, New York" as one of the greatest films ever made, and comes out of the closet as a rationalist. Also in this episode, Tamler begins to defend Sam Harris (you read that right) from Dan Dennett's criticisms of Harris' Free Will--and then we pull back and realize that we need to devote a whole episode to Dennett's review.  LinksDan Dennett's review of "Free Will" by Sam Harris [naturalism.org]Free Will by Sam Harris [amazon.com affiliate link]Jesse Graham's lab website [usc.edu]Moral Foundations Theory: The Pragmatic Validity of Moral Pluralism by Jesse Graham et al. Synechdoche, New York   (RIP Phllip Seymour Hoffman!) Special Guest: Jesse Graham.

Dave and Tamler bounce back this week after having to trash the last episode. Does morality ultimately boil down to a single principle (such as harm or justice), or is there more to ethical life than is dreamt of in the minds of philosophers? We settle this question once and for all in the first of a 2-part episode in which we discuss Jesse Graham et al's recent paper on Moral Foundations Theory. (Jesse Graham himself will join us for part 2).  Plus: how liberal is this podcast?  We'll give you the precise percentage after taking a Time.com quiz that purports to measure political leanings, (and which includes that perennial litmus test of political preferences: is it OK to come home and find your partner watching porn?)     LinksCan TIME predict your politics? [science.time.com]Moral Foundations Theory: The Pragmatic Validity of Moral Pluralism Foundations Theory (in press, Advances in Experimental Social Psychology) by Graham, J. et al [usc.edu]Old School [imdb.com]"Boy, I've Put You in a Really Tough Spot, Haven't I?" by Woody Allen [onion.com]
