Self Persuasion with Peter Schwardmann and Egon Tripodi

In this episode, we talk with Peter Schwardmann and Egon Tripodi about their paper “Self-Persuasion: Evidence from Field Experiments at International Debating Competitions”. In this paper co-authored with Joël van der Weele, Peter and Egon study if people are more likely to believe in the veracity of a claim if it is convenient for them to do so.
