Dr. Crockett’s lab investigates the psychological and neural mechanisms of human morality, altruism, and economic decision-making. Her research integrates perspectives from social psychology, neuroscience, behavioral economics, and philosophy, and employs a range of methods including behavioral experiments, computational modeling, functional brain imaging, field studies, and "big data" analyses. This work has appeared in Science, Nature Neuroscience, Neuron, PNAS, and Nature Human Behaviour. Current interests include how narratives shape moral behavior; moral outrage and political polarization; and how modern technologies might be changing the way we relate to one another.

Dr. William Brady is a National Science Foundation postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Psychology at Yale University. Prior to joining Yale, he completed his PhD in social psychology at New York University. His award-winning dissertation work investigated the psychological processes that make moralized content spread in online networks. His current research investigates the psychological processes that drive people’s interactions during moral and political engagement online, and how digital environments shape the expression of emotion and our moral values. He leverages multiple methodologies that include social media and big data analytics, behavioral experiments, and computational modeling. His work has appeared in PNAS, Trends in Cognitive Science, and Journal of Experimental Psychology: General.

She also holds a JD from Georgetown University Law School, where she was a senior editor of the Georgetown Law Journal and founding editor of the Georgetown Law Journal Online. Dr. Klonick’s research and writing looks at networked technologies' effect on the areas of social norm enforcement, torts, property, intellectual property, artificial intelligence, robotics, freedom of expression, and governance.

Killian McLoughlin is a research technician in the Department of Psychology at Yale University. He holds a BA in philosophy and English literature from University College Dublin as well as an HDip in psychology from Trinity College Dublin. Before moving to Yale, Killian returned to University College Dublin to complete an MSc in social data analytics. During this time he also worked as part of an academic and civil society partnership on a project cataloging and publishing paid Facebook advertisements related to the Irish abortion referendum of 2018. This became a computational exploration of the sources and content of micro-targeted political advertisements on social media, which demonstrated overseas influence and untraceable financing of political ads in the Irish context. Killian currently works on projects investigating online moral outrage expression and perception using big data and machine learning methods. Recent research topics include gender differences in the experience of outrage online and in economic games, and ideological asymmetries in perceiving political outrage online.
