Psychology & Neuroscience PhD graduate Kaitlin Toner, professor Mark Leary, undergraduate student Michael Asher, and doctoral candidate Katrina Jongman-Sereno, are featured in Duke Today for their research on people's feelings of superiority about their political beliefs. The Duke P&N team found that people who have more extreme political attitudes, in both liberal and conservative directions, tend to also think that their beliefs are superior to everyone else's.
