Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Xenophobia and ethnocentrism within individuals increase under experimental primes of greater disease salience in the current environment.

    “This research also shows that xenophobia and ethnocentrism within individuals increases under experimental primes of greater disease salience in the current environment.”

    From Parasite-stress promotes in-group assortative sociality: The cases of strong family ties and heightened religiosity (2012) · cites this paper as Navarrete & Fessler 2006

  • High xenophobia and ethnocentrism correspond to the Western value system referred to as conservatism, whereas low xenophobia (i.e., high xenophilia toward out-groups) and restricted ethnocentrism (i.e., focus on nuclear family) correspond to more liberal values.

  • Faulkner et al. (2004) and Navarrete and Fessler (2006) provide evidence, based on numerous and diverse Western samples, that scores among individuals on scales that measure the degree of xenophobia and ethnocentrism correspond to chronic individual differences in perceived vulnerability to infectious disease.

  • In human evolutionary history, when under parasite attack, in-group members were the only health insurance one had, and it was adaptive to have always paid your premiums in terms of social investment and loyalty toward in-group allies that buffer an individual and his or her family against the morbidity and mortality of infectious disease.

    “To paraphrase Navarrete and Fessler (2006), in human evolutionary history, when under parasite attack, in-group members were the only health insurance one had, and it was adaptive to have always paid your premiums - in terms of social investment and loyalty toward in-group allies that buffer an individual and his or her family against the morbidity and mortality of infectious disease.”

  • Support and loyalty toward in-group members was an individual's defense against the morbidity and mortality effects of parasites.

    “The support and loyalty toward ingroup members was an individual's defense against the morbidity and mortality effects of parasites (Navarrete & Fessler 2006; Sugiyama 2004; Sugiyama & Sugiyama 2003).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
