Cognitive resource depletion in religious interactions

Uffe Schjoedt, Jesper Sørensen, Kristoffer Laigaard Nielbo et al. · 7 Jan 2013

Abstract We explore the cognitive effects of three common features of religious interactions: (1) demand for the expressive suppression of emotion; (2) exposure to goal-demoted and causally opaque actions; and (3) the presence of a charismatic authority. Using a cognitive resource model of executive function, we argue that these three features affect the executive system…

Does synchrony promote generalized prosociality?

Paul Reddish, Joseph Bulbulia, Ronald Fischer · 8 Feb 2013

Synchrony—the matching of rhythmic behavior in time—is a common feature of many social practices. Although recent studies have demonstrated that synchrony promotes prosociality, it remains unclear whether prosociality extends to targets outside the synchronous group. Studies on the related phenomenon of mimicry (i.e., the non-conscious imitation of another's behavior) show that matching behavior in form…

Religious actions speak louder than words: exposure to credibility-enhancing displays predicts theism

Jonathan A. Lanman, Michael D. Buhrmester · 16 Feb 2016

One of the central aims of the cognitive science of religion (CSR) is to explain why supernatural agent beliefs are so widespread. A related but distinct aim is to explain why some individuals hold supernatural agent beliefs but others do not. Here, we aim to provide an initial test of the power of exposure to…

The need to believe: a neuroscience account of religion as a motivated process

Michael Inzlicht, Alexa M. Tullett, Marie Good · 1 Oct 2011

Religious belief has been shown to offer substantial benefits to its adherents, including improved well-being and health. We suggest that these benefits might be explained, at least in part, from a “motivated meaning-making” perspective. This model holds that people are motivated to create and sustain meaning (i.e., a sense of coherency between beliefs, goals, and…

Effects of religious setting on cooperative behavior: a case study from Mauritius

Dimitris Xygalatas · 10 Oct 2012

Abstract Social scientists and folk wisdom have both claimed that there is an association between religiosity and prosocial behavior, but hard evidence for such a relationship is limited. Studies show that religiosity is correlated with self-reported prosociality; however, this relationship is not very clear when it comes to observed prosocial behaviors. Experimental studies reveal a…
