Evidence for Cross-Cultural Support for the Underdog: Is the Affiliation Driven by Fairness and Competence Assessments?

@academic_la There are always way to be better but overall science doesn't support it. https://t.co/vkG6jM93jA

@yoavgo @CSkrishna As usual, there is literature. https://t.co/ugRz8D5plp "[W]ithout being fully informed, participants assume that the team’s diminished chances are based not on its own making but due to the “harsh” hand the team was dealt."

@ejames_c @patrick_oshag More speculative: support for underdogs. Anglo-Americans (i.e. just US & UK not continental Europeans) have a much higher preference for underdogs. https://t.co/m1WckFd45U

@jordanbpeterson a good read
