SUMMARY:Sasha Kimel - Meatborne Xenophobia: Understanding When Disgust Fuels Outgroup Hate
DESCRIPTION:Given that animal-borne pathogens pose especially high disease risks and\, moreover\, that a growing body of research suggests that the evolved function of disgust is the avoidance of disease\, it is largely unsurprising that the consumption of non-normative meat would evoke strong disgust reactions. Yet\, it is largely unclear whether and when concerns about disease can also evoke negative reactions to third-parties who engage in such norm-violations. In a series of experiments\, participants in the U.S. were randomly assigned to learn about cuisine from another culture (i.e.\, fabricated and real) that contained a meat that was either relatively neutral (i.e.\, beef)\, disgusting due to disease threat (i.e.\, rat) or disgusting due to a combination of disease threat and the immorality of causing a cared-for animal harm (i.e.\, dog\, monkey). Our results suggest that disgust may only exacerbate negative judgements and behaviors towards third-parties when the disease threat also has a strong immorality component (e.g.\, eating of dogs but not rats) and\, moreover\, that this may increase depending on how cared-for the being is. Implications for theories on disgust\, compassion and third-party punishment will be addressed.
