A 19th-century anatomist examined 1,000+ brains in a single year to study a rare brain "bridge." 150 years later, researchers at the DPZ replicated his findings — and won the @ohbmofficial.bsky.social Replication Award for it. Science across centuries. 🧠 More info here: www.dpz.eu/en/public-en...

Paper alert: Kind of a serious fun paper 😂 - how to hold back laughter. Published by @anne-schacht.bsky.social, Vanessa Mitschke, Annika Ziereis and Sriranjani Manivasagam (@uni-goettingen.de; @primatecognition.bsky.social) . Paper is out in Comm Psychol: doi.org/10.1038/s442...

Laughter regulation in solitary and social contexts varies across emotion regulation strategies - Communications Psychology

Using facial EMG and humor ratings, this study shows how suppression, reappraisal, and distraction differentially affect laughter-related expressions of amusement in solitary versus social settings.

😂😶 Holding back laughter is hard… … and someone else’s tiny pffft-HAHA can instantly crack you up. Our new study (with @sfb1528.bsky.social, @uni-goettingen.de) in Communications Psychology shows how social laughter disrupts regulation. 🔗 doi.org/10.1038/s442...

We’re not the only ones changing our minds 🐒🧠 Chimps revise their beliefs when new evidence appears — a trait once thought uniquely human. New Science paper from our former postdoc Hanna Schleihauf (@primatenzentrum.bsky.social; now @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social) www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

Chimpanzees rationally revise their beliefs

The selective revision of beliefs in light of new evidence has been considered one of the hallmarks of human-level rationality. However, tests of this ability in other species are lacking. We examined...
