The research project is to be understood as a pilot project, which is intended to comprehensively demonstrate the research potential of the cartographic-geographical "The Gotha Perthes Collection" acquired by the Free State of Thuringia in 2003 for the first time. In addition, it is intended to contribute to the further development of the collection and to establish a virtual map laboratory, the "GlobMapLaboratory".

In the preceding project "An interdisciplinary approach to explain and overcome vaccine fatigue", the vaccination decision was systematically analysed for the first time as a social interaction on the behavioural level. In three work packages of this follow-up project, we are now building directly on the proven research approach of analyzing social-interactive health decisions through interactive decision tasks (Health Games).

Vaccine hesitancy—the delay or refusal of vaccination without medical indication—has been cited as a serious threat to global health by the World Health Organization (WHO), attributing it to misinformation on the internet. The WHO has also identified Health Care Professionals (HCPs) as the most trusted influencers of vaccination decisions. JITSUVAX leverages those insights to turn toxic misinformation into a potential asset.

Tilmann Betsch: In this project we are investigating which developmental steps lead to decision-making competence in complex modern environments, how this can be promoted and which factors determine the cognitive development of decision-making competence from primary school age.

In this project, the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella vaccination) decision aid is revised according to the scientific standards of the International Patient Decision Aid Collaboration and tested experimentally in laboratory studies. A special focus of the revision is on providing accurate risk information and reducing reactance, i.e. the feeling of being restricted in one's freedom of choice. The aim is to enable users to make a neutral decision process that reflects their individual…

At what age and under what conditions do children systematically use probabilistic information in decision-making? How do they use it - as criteria for orienting selective information searches and/or as weights of values in the integration of information? With regard to these questions, the empirical research findings are poor and inconsistent. Against the background of two model classes of decision making (multiple strategy approach vs. connectionist approach) competing assumptions about…

Jörg Seiler: The Research Centre for Contemporary Church History investigates the specific form of Catholicism in the Soviet Occupation Zone (SBZ)/ German Democratic Republic (DDR). It deals with the "double diaspora situation" of Central and East German Catholics.

Subproject of the research group "Voluntariness". This subproject investigates the interactions between principles and practices of voluntariness in transnational migration processes between the 1960s and 2000. These interactions are analyzed in light of the remigration and repatriation of labor migrants, asylum seekers, and refugees, chiefly from the Global North to the Global South. I argue that from the 1960s on, a repatriation regime emerged that sought to legitimize its practices by…
