No one tells you how sweet it is to see your students shine during their 1st conference 🤩 #psynom24 was awesome & now we gotta get these 3 papers on SRL & desirable difficulties out into the world! So lucky to work with @arichmond10.bsky.social @xinranwendywang.bsky.social @serenaluo.bsky.social

If you know undergraduate students attending Psychonomics, please encourage them to attend this workshop on Friday at noon. I will be one of the panel speakers, and we are discussing grad school applications and succeeding in grad school. #psynom24

I don't think anyone has started a Learning Scholars starter pack, so here we go! Let me know if you'd like to be added, removed, etc. Please share! go.bsky.app/CBPm1dV

We’re excited to announce that the Psychonomic Society is now on Bluesky! Posts will begin in January. Please help spread the word by following us and reposting.

In our new open access paper we find that motivation regulation can often act as a buffer on cost except when things get too costly😮‍💨 Check out how the different dimensions of cost play out 👀 www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... Such a fun project & team led by @yekim.bsky.social #edusky #psychscisky

My intent was to prepare my students but I didn’t realize how much I’d learn from these replies as a new PI! Thank you all for sharing your questions and the reasons why 🤩

In lab meeting we're talking about how to prep for grad school interviews & practicing with each other. What's your go-to interview question? I really enjoy hearing students' responses to "How have your past experiences shaped your research interests?" #psychsci #cogpsyc #edusky #academicsky

“In the name of protecting free speech, the scientific community is not allowed to speak”- misinformation research is under attack. NIH pulled an initiative to improve health comm, researchers are being harassed. We need a powerful counterresponse from universities & the broader research community.

Shannon McGregor, PhD@shannimcg.bsky.social · 3y ago

Our field is under partisan attack from the right — and it’s working. Funders - govt & philanthropic are cutting support. And academics & universities are unprepared to deal with this. More from @naominix.bsky.social wapo.st/3ZvQNTF

How can we reduce sharing of false information online? Asking ppl to explain how they know that a headline is true or false reduces intentions to share false headlines (w no effect for true info). New research from Raunak Pillai and me #PsychSciSky 1/ online.ucpress.edu/collabra/art...

For psychological researchers, it pays to go back and read the original work in your domain. Often that work has been miscited for years. But really those people were frequently smart and observant. If you’re a memory researcher, read James, Ebbinghaus, & Bartlett. Read Tulving, Marcia Johnson.

Berna Devezer@devezer.bsky.social · 3y ago

All I've learned from reading a lot and studying on science is that these boundaries have always been fuzzy and that we don't have access to a complete picture of what science is or can/will/should be. I recommend reading history of science to every scientist. It'll shake your beliefs to its core.
