- Does pathogen avoidance affect intergroup categorization? Replication of Makhanova, Miller, and Maner (2015), Makhanova et al. (2023). Evolutionary Behavioral Sciences. Outcome recorded: successful.
The current findings replicated part but not all of the pattern observed in the original study. [...] Considered together, findings bolster support for the overall hypothesis that pathogen threat is associated with biased social categorization of targets displaying heuristic cues to disease.
