Politics can feel so divisive these days, but it does not have to be that way! My brother, Thomas Peters, recently sat down with the Hartford Courant to discuss this and more. At 22, he is also the youngest town official ever elected in Durham, Connecticut! www.courant.com/2025/12/02/t...
At 22, he’s the youngest elected in small CT town. He’ll handle millions of dollars.
Amid divisiveness in his CT town that is evident on social media, Thomas Peters said, “I want to bring a sense of respect and decency to town hall…”

To help people understand the importance of NIH, share what you’ve used their funding for (in easily understandable terms). I’ll start: my NIH postdoc funding helped me develop and test AI tools that could identify skin cancer across diverse skin tones.
📣 Seeking Panelists for #AOM2025! 👋🏻 Calling all #IOPsych / #WellBeing colleagues! I'm organizing a panel for the AOM conference in Copenhagen, DK (July 25-29), discussing the limitations of 𝙋𝙀𝙍𝙁𝙊𝙍𝙈𝘼𝙉𝘾𝙀 as the "ultimate criterion" and Tay et al.'s (2023) position to expand it to include 𝙒𝙀𝙇𝙇-𝘽𝙀𝙄𝙉𝙂.
Always looking to connect with more #Wellbeing researchers in #IOPsych and #OHPsych! Sharing this Employee Wellness/Well-being Starter Pack to help spread the word and help connect with others in this space. Thank you @heighho.bsky.social for creating this resource! go.bsky.app/Kc9xuwi
@larsujohnson.bsky.social beat me to it. #IOPsych, let's discuss this! The commentary on activism and science can be found here: doi.org/10.1017/iop.... I've already shared my thoughts in the comments – would love to hear your insights as well!

So, yall really aren’t talking about that activism is a deterrent to good science paper? Or have we just not reached critical mass on this app for it to happen here?
Really enjoying seeing the articles everyone is sharing! Mine is Tay et al. (2023) on criterion theory. Tay, L., Batz-Barbarich, C., Yang, L. Q., & Wiese, C. W. (2023). Well-being: The ultimate criterion for organizational sciences. Journal of Business and Psychology, 1-17. doi.org/10.1007/s108...
Can we add some psych sprinkles to this? ✨ #IOPsych #OHP academics, what one article has inspired you, changed the way you think, or made you go “Wow”? Mine is this: Hobfoll, S. E. (1989). Conservation of resources: a new attempt at conceptualizing stress. American psychologist, 44(3), 513.
@drbrittanyavila.bsky.social raises some important questions about screen time addiction. Should we extend this conversation to include adults as well? How do you manage your own screen time usage?
Why aren't we talking more about addiction to screentime? And what aren't we regulating it in children?

Interesting commentary by Ravid et al. (2024) on bridging the science-practice gap in #IOPsych through industry-academic partnerships. Definitely worth a read, particularly if this gap irks you like it does me!
Check out our recent IOP commentary on narrowing the science-practice gap using industry-academic collaborations. Had a great time working with Ray Wu, Emily Campion, Georgi Yankov, Richard Landers, and Chase Winterberg on this one. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
