2 Types of contributions: Posters: There will be two poster sessions. Posters are assigned to one of the two sessions. Poster presenters will also have the opportunity to give a very brief introduction(2 min) to their poster ( poster pitch ). These poster pitches will take place directly after the symposium session on Thursday and after Thematic Session 3 on Friday. Please see the schedule to find out when poster presenters are giving their pitches Thematic sessions Each presenter in a thematic session has 15 min to present his work. This includes the discussion time. Symposia Talks within a symposium also have the length of 15 min.

4 4) Reine van der Wal, Johan Karremans, & Toon Cillessen - Interpersonal forgiveness in late childhood: Associations with social status Symposium session (Thursday, December 12, 15:00-16:55) Symposium I: Social thermoregulations in humans Chair: Hans IJzerman This symposium focuses on the regulation of body temperature, and how it affects the development of interpersonal cognition. The symposium includes both theory and empirical work. For humans, it is essential to regulate the temperature of the body, since failing to do so inevitably means death. Remarkably, the high costs of temperature regulation are typically shared, something that in the animal literature has been dubbed social thermoregulation. The social aspects of thermoregulation commence in infancy: Infants are not yet able to regulate their own temperature and are therefore especially dependent on others for their temperature to be regulated. Not only does this affect survival: The theoretical talk in the symposium will suggest ways in which being socially thermoregulated early in life could alter physiological development, such as the development of brown adipose tissue (BAT), an important factor in thermoregulation. One talk will discuss the more general role of BAT in thermoregulation. Furthermore, there are likely innate expectations to be thermoregulated, and one empirical talk will reveal that infants feeling warm (vs. cold) should be more affiliative towards their social environment. The final talk will reveal how ostracism increases facial temperature, which further underlines the role of temperature in social interaction. Taking together, this symposium provides an overview of research on different aspects of social thermoregulation in humans. A theoretical perspective is developed, and subsequently, empirical work on thermoregulation from a physiological, developmental and social interaction perspective will be discussed.

5 Symposium II: Workshop "writing for a non- expert audience" Chairs: Jellie Sierksema & Sanne Nauts Speakers: Ap Dijksterhuis (RU), Nicolette Meerstadt Over the past years, funding agencies and politicians have started to evict scientists from their ivory towers, requiring researchers to explain the societal relevance of their research. The valorization of scientific knowledge is increasingly valued and social psychologists are often required to write for non- expert audiences. In this workshop, you will learn tips and tricks about writing for non- expert audiences. The focus is on communicating with the general public, but most information can also be applied to writing grant applications for non- expert panels (e.g., for a VENI). We start the workshop with presentations by a science journalist (Nicolette Meerstadt) and a researcher with experience writing for non- expert audiences (Ap Dijksterhuis). Next, you will write a short teaser, a short abstract to capture the readers' interest in your story, and receive feedback on your teaser. Due to the nature of this workshop, many parts will be conducted in Dutch: please contact the organizers if you would like to participate but don't speak Dutch. Participation is limited to 20 people (first- come- first- serve). This workshop is not suitable for students who have not yet conducted research they can write about. This workshop is organized by the editors of In- Mind NL, an online peer- reviewed journal with articles about social psychology that are written for a general audience. After the workshop, there will be time to talk to the editors of In- Mind NL to see if, based on your teaser, you would like to write a paper and submit it to In- Mind magazine. Poster pitches 1) Cong Peng - Pay for my fault: The effect of guilt on victimization 2) Hilmar Brohmer - Separatist from the bottom of one's heart? Examining the attitudes and values of separatist voters 3) Johannes Seehusen - How counterfactual temptations improve goal pursuit 4) Lotte Veenstra Embodied mood regulation: Evidence that stooped body posture interferes with down- regulation of negative feelings

6 Symposium III: Economic and Consumer Behavior Chair: Marijke van Putten In this symposium we will present our recent research on economic and consumer behavior and aim to show that combining economic and psychological insights has an important added value in understanding human behavior. In the world today people s choice options increase further and further. Consequently, the uncertainty people face about their preferences and decisions also increases rapidly. The four research lines in this symposium address the psychological mechanisms that determine how different forms of communication alter consumers commitments to preferences and decisions and how consumer commitment may actually backfire when services fail. Due to the ever- increasing number of options, people become more and more uncertain. How do people cope with such uncertainty in a consumer context? Femke van Horen will present research showing that when feeling uncertain people show a higher preference for consumer products that are described in concrete as compared to abstract language. She argues that when consumers feel uncertain they prefer more predictability and that concreteness ascertains predictability. With increasing options and decisions prioritizing becomes more and more important. People have to decide which decision to take first. A straightforward way to prioritize might be to stress the importance of this decision. Arguably, the more important the decision, the more likely people are to take these decisions first. Job Krijnen will present research showing this assumption might be wrong. His work shows that, when people make decisions about pension plans, stressing the importance of a decision actually increases the likelihood that these decisions are postponed. Another seemingly straightforward way to motivate people to take difficult decisions is to encourage them to think that only the best is good enough for them. Students often strive for the best and are disappointed when they pass courses with a sufficient instead of an excellent grade. Marijke van Putten will present research that shows that encouraging people to strive for the best can backfire. She argues that striving for the best leads to a maximizing mind- set and thereby increases people s decision anxiety and the likelihood that their decision is deferred altogether. Companies often take huge efforts to commit their customers to them, with the idea that loyal customers are the best customers. In his research Wilco van Dijk shows that a company s best customers can also become their worst enemies. More specifically, his work shows that the most committed customers are most likely to engage in all kinds of direct and indirect revenge behaviors when they feel unfairly treated by a company. Speakers: 1) Femke van Horen, Michaela Wänke, & Thomas Mussweiler - The appeal of concreteness under uncertainty 2) Job M. T. Krijnen, Marcel Zeelenberg, Seger M. Breugelmans - Deferral of Important Decisions 3) Marijke van Putten & Marret K. Noordewier - The Maximizing Norm. Encouraging to Get the Best Enhances Decision Avoidance 4) Wilco W. van Dijk, Julija Paulauskaite, Elise C. Seip, & Mark Rotteveel - When love turns to hate: The impact of customer relationship quality on consumer revenge Poster Pitches 1) Anna Spalti - Disentangling the Effects of Political Ideology from the Effects of Social Group Membership on Prejudice 2) Michiel van Elk - Effects of absorption on feelings of awe and spirituality 3) Terri Seuntjes - Greed & Immoral behaviour

7 Symposium IV: Sanctions: Determinants and Consequences Chair: Marlon Mooijman Sanctions such as rewards for desired behavior and punishments for undesired behavior are often used to promote cooperation within an organization or society. For instance, governments try to stimulate cooperation by providing punitive incentives. Similarly, managers try to stimulate employees productivity by rewarding those who excel. Although a central topic in psychological and economic research, the underlying psychological motivations of such sanctioning behavior and its subsequent effectiveness remains poorly understood. This symposium aims to shed light unto this question by bringing together recent work on the determinants and effectiveness of sanctions. In particular, the four lines of research in this symposium focus on when and why people are willing to punish and reward, and how such sanctions should be implemented in order to achieve maximum effectiveness. First, Welmer Molenmaker will demonstrate when and why people are willing to sanction others for their (non)cooperation. That is, he will present research showing that a shared responsibility with others in a group- context can increase people s willingness to administer sanctions. Second, Jan- Willem van Prooijen will present research that revolves around the emotional determinants of punishment. He will present the counterintuitive finding that positive, compared to negative, emotions can increase the severity of people s recommended punishments for criminal offenders. The first two talks, in other words, will demonstrate some important determinants of sanctions. Third, Laetitia Mulder will focus on how supervisors should implement effective sanctions. That is, she will present research showing that giving a rationale for a sanction increases rule compliance, but that is less so in trusting relationships. Lastly, Marlon Mooijman (3rd year PhD student, Leiden University) will expand these findings by presenting work on how the use of a punitive deterrent signals an authority s distrust. This distrust in turn can undermine the extent to which people are willing to cooperate with the authority. Speakers: 1) Welmer Molenmaker, Erik de Kwaadsteniet, & Eric van Dijk - The (un)willingness to sanction individually and jointly 2) Jan- Willem van Prooijen, Constanze Eib, Thierry Nadisic - Discrete Emotions and Retributive Responses to Offenders: The Paradoxical Effects of Happiness 3) Laetitia B. Mulder, Gerben S. van der Vegt, & Sanne N. Ponsioen - Sanction or warn? How to react to rule disobedience under conditions of trusting relationships between supervisory agencies and organizations under supervision. 4) Marlon Mooijman, Wilco W. Van Dijk, Naomi Ellemers, & Eric van Dijk - On rule compliance:the role of perceived sanction motives Poster pitches 1) Jolien van Breen - Feminist and Women's Identification: the TGIF model 2) Tim Faber - Visual attention for response- functional objects in rich social scenes
