In Pursuit of Uniformity: How the Distribution of Possession Sets Influences Consumer Choices

Professor Irene Scopelliti (Bayes Business School) 

Wednesday 18th February 2026, 2pm to 3pm (UK time)

University of Leeds, online on Teams (meeting link HERE)

Abstract: When consumers own sets of functionally similar products that vary on secondary attributes (e.g., pens in different colours, wine in different varieties), the distribution of these possessions, whether uniform (e.g., two blue, two red, and two black pens) or non-uniform (e.g., two blue, one red, and three black pens), can systematically influence subsequent decisions. While uniform distributions lead to choices aligned with preferences and usage patterns, non-uniform distributions trigger a tendency to increase uniformity. This tendency induces consumers to acquire more of the underrepresented items in the set and to remove overrepresented ones, even when these actions contradict their preferences or consumption rates. This occurs because non-uniform distributions establish reference points (typically the modal or mean numerosity) against which consumers evaluate their possessions. Items below this reference point feel “insufficient,” prompting acquisition; items above feel “excessive,” prompting removal (through consumption or disposal). These distribution-driven decisions persist regardless of absolute quantities owned, and they extend to novel items not present in the original set, revealing how distributional considerations influence consumer behaviour beyond utility maximisation principles.

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to the the second webinar of our Spring 2026

series: "Seeing Climate Clearly: Misperceptions, Social Norms, and

Collective Action" hosted by APA Division 34 (Society for Environmental

Population and Conservation Psychology).

???? *Date & Time:* February 20, 2026 | 01:00 PM (Eastern time)

???? *Format:* Virtual (Zoom)

???? *Registration link here

<https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_BJ51MPXiQfq8a_yH0Mj8Cw>*

Our featured speaker is *Dr. Nathan Geiger*, Assistant Professor of

Behavior, Education, and Communication, Climate and Energy at the

University of Michigan.

*Talk title:**Why don’t we realize that others (also) care about the

planet? Pluralistic ignorance on climate change, its causes, and its

correction*

*Abstract:*Enacting policies to address climate change is aided by

accurately understanding how popular different climate policies are. Yet,

emerging work suggests that people tend to assume that others hold more

anti-climate views than they actually do – a phenomenon known as

pluralistic ignorance. The presentation first highlights nationally

representative evidence that despite supermajority support for several

climate policies in the US, Americans believe that well under half of other

Americans support these policies. Next, I explore possible causes of shared

misperceptions, considering informational, heuristic-based, and

motivational causes fostering inaccuracies. Finally, I explore emerging

work exploring how these shared misperceptions can be corrected. Taken

collectively, these results demonstrate the “false social reality” on

climate policy (i.e., that a potential barrier to enaction of these

policies is not that they are unpopular but rather that people misperceive

them to be unpopular), possible causes of these shared misperceptions, and

how to use interventions to correct this false social reality.

The presentation will be followed by a live Q&A.

We hope you will join us for this engaging event.

Best regards,

Stylianos Syropoulos

The department of Marketing and Supply-Chain Management at the School of Business and Economics at Maastricht University in the Netherlands is seeking to hire a PhD student to investigate how people infer others’ knowledge in complex decision-making environments, with a focus on supply-chain settings. The project will broadly explore how decision makers in operations and supply-chain contexts assess what other know, how accurate these assessments are, as well as which cognitive, behavioural, and physiological mechanisms underpin them.

You will work closely with the supervisors as part of a small, collaborative research team, while also developing increasing independence over the course of the PhD. The position involves a mix of conceptual work, experimental design, data collection, and rigorous analysis, with expectations comparable to leading research-oriented business schools. Room will also be provided for growth, learning, and personal development.

9, 2026 and continue until positions are filled. *

College Fellows will join the Psychology Department's community of scholars

who are committed to excellence in undergraduate education and inclusive

teaching. College Fellows receive intensive pedagogical and course

development mentorship through the Department and Harvard’s Derek Bok

Center for Teaching and Learning. Past College Fellows have developed

courses that take full advantage of the resources Harvard affords, offering

courses through the Mindich Program in Engaged Scholarship, designing

projects that encourage students to apply academic knowledge beyond the

classroom, securing innovation funds to explore and expand the boundaries

of students’ learning experiences, and publishing scholarship in pedagogy

journals.
