Being rejected romantically can really suck! But does it affect men and women the same? And how can it affect our politics?
Dr. Francesca Luberti has done a number of fascinating studies on lots of aspects of relationships. Today we wanted to focus on her study, "Changes in positive affect due to popularity in an experimental dating context influence some of men's but not women's socio-political attitudes." Why, when turned down, do men want to limit minimum wage and healthcare?
Francesca Luberti Ph.D., is a psychologist who studies how mating, hormones, and socio-cultural contexts can shape and influence social attitudes. Born and raised in Italy, Luberti became passionate about the study of human behavior when she moved to the U.S., where she completed a B.S. in Evolutionary Anthropology at UCLA, and then an M.A. in Climate and Society at Columbia University. She then completed her Ph.D. in Evolutionary Psychology at UNSW in Sydney, Australia. Luberti's Ph.D. work investigated the effects of mating and mating-related factors on socio-political orientation. Dr. Luberti is currently working as a postdoctoral researcher in the Social Neuroendocrinology Lab at Nipissing University in North Bay, Canada. In this role, she examines how changes in testosterone concentrations can also affect social attitudes.
