Psychology wants to stay WEIRD, not go WILD
Abstract
Psychologists have argued for diversification for over 50 years, with little change. At this point, it is clear that inaction is not due to lack of knowledge, convincing arguments, or clever acronyms. Rather, it is driven by psychologists' priorities, values, and goals that they see as endemic to the field - one that is universal, decontextualized, and generalizable.
