About
Jeremy Cone is a leading researcher in social cognition, with a focus on the dynamics of implicit social evaluation and belief updating. His work challenges long-held assumptions about the rigidity of first impressions, demonstrating that implicit attitudes—the spontaneous, automatic reactions we form toward others—can be updated more rapidly and flexibly than previously thought. In his highly cited 2019 paper, "When and How Implicit First Impressions Can Be Updated" (65 citations), Cone and his colleagues showed that under the right conditions, implicit impressions can be revised as quickly as explicit ones, reshaping our understanding of how people navigate a changing social world. This work has profound implications for reducing prejudice and improving interpersonal accuracy. Cone’s research bridges cognitive psychology and social neuroscience, using experimental paradigms to uncover the mechanisms behind belief revision. His contributions have been recognized with early-career awards and invitations to speak at major conferences. For students and researchers, Cone’s work offers a compelling roadmap for studying the malleability of human social judgment.
