Forgiveness and revenge. Each of us has, in the past, had to choose between one or the other. Choose forgiveness, and we face the possibility of appearing weak. Seek revenge, and we come across as mean and spiteful. UPEI social psychology professor Stacy MacKinnon will talk about forgiveness and revenge on Tuesday, February 9, at this month’s Research on Tap. The discussion begins at 7 p.m. in Mavor’s Bar at the Confederation Centre of the Arts. MacKinnon is an assistant professor of social psychology whose research areas include trust, risk, forgiveness and revenge. At Research on Tap, she’ll discuss "Revenge and Forgiveness: Deciding whether or not to, how to, and how it's going to feel afterward." She will illustrate why a blanket policy of forgiveness might not be a good idea, and she will delve into the dark satisfaction we seek when we carry out revenge. Research on Tap is a series of public discussions with UPEI’s researchers in a comfortable environment. Every month of the winter, we bring a UPEI researcher to a local pub—in this case, Mavor’s—to discuss his or her area of expertise.
