- An international survey of perceptions of the 2014 FIFA World Cup: national levels of corruption as a context for perceptions of institutional corruptionPublication . Nezlek, John B.; Newman, David B.; Schütz, Astrid; Baumeister, Roy F.; Schug, Joanna; Joshanloo, Mohsen; Lopes, Paulo N.; Alt, Nicholas P.; Cypryańska, Marzena; Depietri, Marco; Gorbaniuk, Oleg; Huguet, Pascal; Kafetsios, Konstantinos; Koydemir, Selda; Kuppens, Peter; Park, Sanghee; Martin, Alvaro San; Schaafsma, Juliette; Simunovic, Dora; Yokota, KunihiroWe conducted a survey about the 2014 FIFA World Cup that measured attitudes about FIFA, players, and officials in 18 languages with 4600 respondents from 29 countries. Sixty percent of respondents perceived FIFA officials as being dishonest, and people from countries with less institutional corruption and stronger rule of law perceived FIFA officials as being more corrupt and less competent running the tournament than people from countries with more corruption and weaker rule of law. In contrast, respondents evaluated players as skilled and honest and match officials as competent and honest. We discuss the implications of our findings for perceptions of corruption in general.
- Data from the Human Penguin Project, a cross-national dataset testing social thermoregulation principlesPublication .

They were collected to investigate the relationship between environmental factors (e.g., geographical, climate etc.) and human behaviors, which is a long-standing inquiry in the scientific community. More specifically, the present project was designed to test principles surrounding the idea of social thermoregulation, which posits that social networks help people to regulate their core body temperature. The results showed that all scales in the current project have sufficient to good psychometrical properties. Unlike previous crowdsourced projects, this dataset includes not only the cleaned raw data but also all the validation of questionnaires in 9 different languages, thus providing a valuable resource for psychological scientists who are interested in cross-national, environment-human interaction studies.
