A series of studies in the Journal of Personality found that greedy people briefly feel proud when they acquire something new, but this feeling fades quickly, leading them to keep wanting more. Psychologists define greed as an insatiable desire to acquire more, paired with persistent dissatisfaction, regardless of what one already possesses. This paradox suggests that greedy individuals are trapped in a relentless cycle of acquisition that fails to fulfill their needs. In this work, Eric J. Mercadante and Jessica L. Tracy explored this phenomenon by examining how pride—both authentic and hubri...

A recent study published in the Journal of Population Economics sheds light on the unintended consequences of Sweden’s ban on the purchase of sex. The research indicates that the regulation, aimed at curbing prostitution, may have led to an unexpected increase in rape offenses. The regulation of prostitution remains a highly debated issue globally. In the United States, prostitution is illegal except for in Nevada. European countries vary in their approach from decriminalization, like in Denmark, to outright bans on purchasing sex, such as the Nordic model adopted by Sweden, Norway, and Icelan...

New research suggests that a simple touch from teammates can significantly influence the success of basketball players during free throw attempts, particularly after a missed first shot. The findings were published in the journal Psychology of Sport & Exercise. Prior research has extensively documented the calming effects of physical touch, such as hugs or pats on the back, which can soothe individuals and lower stress levels. However, the impact of such physical interactions on performance during stressful tasks has remained under-explored. Free throws represent a unique blend of skill, conce...

A scientific analysis of the romantic content in the 41 high-grossing teen romantic drama movies from 1961 to 2019 has found that male characters were more likely to express romantic ideals, whereas hookups — especially those involving female characters — often predicted relationship terminations. This trend highlights a persistent sexual double standard in these films, which could have negative implications for their primarily young female audience. The findings have been published in the journal Psychology of Popular Media. For decades, romantic films have played a significant role in shapin...
