vers (9%). In other words, people tend to agree on which friends are satisfied, particularly with their status. Self-other agreement was higher for status satisfaction (r = .53) than life satisfaction (r = .39). The association between target relationship status and target effects of status satisfaction (r = .69) was stronger than the association between target relationship status and target effects of life satisfaction (r = .17), suggesting friends use relationship status as a cue when assessing status satisfaction. Results have implications for interpersonal perception, how relationship status impacts perception, and how life satisfaction relates to domain-specific satisfaction.

Extremist groups frequently leverage online spaces in recruitment and organization efforts. This research assessed how basic psychological need expression among users of extremist chatrooms was related to forum engagement and hate term use. ∼20,000,000 posts from ∼90,000 users on 233 Discord chatrooms were scraped from a publicly available database. Using a natural language processing approach, users received scores on three needs based on semantic similarity between posts and needs measures. Multilevel models assessed associations between need expression and number of posts, length of chatroom activity, and hate term use. Results indicated that users who expressed more autonomy and competence were more engaged and used hate terms less. Smaller and less robust effects were observed for relatedness. Results suggest that basic psychological needs are associated with behaviors in extremist chatrooms and that the decades of research on basic psychological needs can be leveraged to better understand radicalization and extremist behaviors.

Global crises pose common threats to diverse groups regardless of their relations, necessitating collaborative responses. However, previous research has underscored the influence of threat attributes on intergroup cooperative responses to common threats, overlooking the role of existing intergroup relations. Following the social identity approach, we proposed that existing intergroup relations shape the divergent effects of common threats on intergroup cooperation. We tested this assumption using three preregistered studies (N = 1,440) through virtual intergroup (Studies 1 and 2) and real-world China–South Korea interactions (Study 3). Across crisis scenarios, we found that under negative relations, framing a crisis as resource threat hindered intergroup cooperation, whereas framing it as safety threat facilitated cooperation. Under positive relations, both threat frames facilitated cooperation. These findings deepen our understanding of the psychological processes underlying joint intergroup responses to global crises and offer practical insights for fostering cooperation.

Despite evidence that advice is most beneficial for increasing decision accuracy when advisors form independent judgments, people sometimes undermine this independence by sharing their preliminary conclusions when seeking advice. We propose that following the prescription to think independently before seeking advice paradoxically leads people to make this mistake. Specifically, we argue that deeper engagement with a decision makes one’s own perspective more accessible and likely to be shared during an advice interaction. In two preregistered studies (N = 2,109), we demonstrate that higher levels of engagement with the decision prior to seeking advice increase the likelihood that the seeker will anchor the advisor. This suggests that advice seekers who follow prescriptions to form a judgment prior to seeking advice may inadvertently introduce bias into advice interactions, undermining the independence of the advice they seek. These findings contribute to the advice-seeking literature by revealing a process by which anchors emerge naturally in information exchange.
