I guess what I'm saying is, I think it's hasty to look at a researcher and reach your own conclusion why they didn't publish a null finding.
I also have to say this, as loudly as I can: this rule has to apply universally, to everyone, with no exceptions, no sweetheart deals, nothing. Period. Either something is wrong, or it is not. Doesn't matter if they're in political sympathy with you, useful to you, or if you owe 'em. No exceptions.
Jay Van Bavel, PhD@jayvanbavel.bsky.social · 2mo agoIt we want to change the norms in the field, we all have to speak out when something clearly crosses the line. We should also think deeply about how we want to address these issues in academic societies—if someone violates the code of conduct should they win awards and keep positions of power?
I am disappointed to see this kind of situation again. I hope that @polpsyispp.bsky.social takes this seriously and meaningfully addresses this instance and all others like it. Doing so would help to show that it takes its own values seriously, even when this might involve difficult self-reflection.

Happy to share a new paper in Environmental Politics w/ @jolanda-jetten.bsky.social & Sam Pearson. Across 105 countries (N = 101,956), people in fossil fuel reliant nations were less likely to see climate change as a government priority, more supportive of fossil fuel use, and less so of renewables.
Very belatedly sharing this because the last months were busy: The limits of appraisal theory for political emotions is out in Political Psychology! @gijsschumacher.bsky.social, @mrooduijn.bsky.social and I ask whether appraisal theories of emotion work the same way in politics as in everyday life.

College students are not unable to read. They are not unable to write. Ask yourself who wants to denigrate the abilities of young people. Ask yourself who benefits if employers are convinced young adults are incapable. I’m sick of myths being pushed about young adults. They are BS
