Looks very interesting! Could you share a more readable version? (or a draft paper if available)
Proceedings are online, here is this poster's: http://mindmodeling.org/cogsci2018/papers/0438/index.html …

Fantastic, thank you! Love the work, but am somewhat irked by the "People generally ignore evidence that is contrary to their beliefs," which is so blatantly untrue. I don't believe there's a fire in my kitchen, but if I see smoke, I might change my mind...
-
Sure, but fires in your kitchen tend not to be that social or moral IMHO.
-
By and large, when people are confronted with good evidence that challenges their views, they change their mind at least a bit, whatever the domain. Don't have time now to post all the links to primary research, but seehttps://slate.com/health-and-science/2018/01/weve-been-told-were-living-in-a-post-truth-age-dont-believe-it.html …

I just sat through a bunch of plenary talks and symposia on this (arguing mostly that people don't) so I'm not in the right mood at the moment (I'm also still at cogsci and it's not my area), so thanks but maybe later.
-
Enjoy cogsci! By now the evidence that people, as a rule, adjust their beliefs (and, again, when the evidence is good), is pretty strong. If you're interested let me know I'll send you a bunch of links.
