What is required for someone to be an American? 30% of Republicans say being White is very or somewhat important. www.pbump.net/o/what-makes...

Psychologists & related fields: what is a big methods question that you believe remains somewhat unanswered & that you'd love to see adressed? There may be an opportunity for a large-scale meta-science project with many teams trying to figure out a question.

Any thoughts welcome! #psychscisky

Also how should we divide up expertise so that everyone knows enough stats but not everyone needs multiple PhDs.

Yes! And (not just a methods issue) how can we get all researchers access to statisticians when they need them, even those at smaller or less wealthy institutions.

New study! The messages that American kids receive about immigrants are really mixed 😕 but kids who see and hear good things (e.g., online) are more open to including new immigrant peers in their own social circles 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 #devpsyc #socialpsyc doi.org/10.1016/j.ap...

Me too, but I had just paid so I have to wait until next January for it to end. I think I will at least opt out of the daily seven. NPR and BBC are better.

The Washington Post's daily seven is supposed to keep you updated but it's turning into just another collection of click bait. I really wish the goal of news was to inform.

Public media has been defunded. Your support keeps journalists on the ground, lifts unheard voices, and connects communities.

I think the same is true for writing academic papers that develop an argument. It should not be a list. It should build an understanding of how the ideas are related.

South Park's Matt Stone and Trey Parker are storytelling geniuses! I highlight their remarkably simple but effective "but/therefore rule" in every science communication lecture I give.

Winooski Superintendent Detained, Questioned by Border Officials Superintendent Wilmer Chavarria, a U.S. citizen, was questioned for hours at a Houston airport as he returned from a visit to Nicaragua with his husband.

Wilmer Chavarria, a US citizen, Global Entry member, and Vermont school superintendent, was detained returning to the US from a trip abroad with his husband. CBP told him he had "no Constitutional rights," took his phone and laptop, and revoked his Global Entry.

I am no constitutional scholar, but I can't help but feel that "the President gets to dictate what every university can teach and what every television station should broadcast" is closer to what the founding fathers were worried about when it comes to free speech than trigger warnings on syllabi.

Given the gravity of the topic, we're doubling down at @natureportfolio.nature.com on fighting misinformation with a special collection on health misinformation I'm (co)-editing.

So many great programs, papers and resources! Congratulations to the award winners!

Something in my eye. I need to use the eye rinse station. That’s all. That’s all.

My husbands book got a review that called it a MASTERPIECE, and we don't even know the reviewer! No bribes or anything!

Meet our new puppy Argos! We adopted him Saturday and we are already in love.

A photo of a puppy sitting among some wild strawberry plants. He's black with white-tipped paws and brown around the eyes and muzzle. He's a cross between a Cavalier King Charles and a Bernese Mountain dog.

New member of the family arrived this weekend! He's a rescue named Argos.

A hand holds a smartphone displaying an academic article titled "Informed decision making in the context of HIV prevention: an experience sampling study among men who have sex with men" on the Taylor & Francis website (tandfonline.com). The phone screen shows the first page of the article with authors listed. The background features a pastel rainbow wave pattern, reinforcing LGBTQ+ themes.

🧠💬 In HIV prevention, how you choose matters. Our new study shows that informed decision making helps people feel safer – regardless of momentary priorities.

👏 Big kudos to Felix who ran this study as part of his master thesis!

Indianapolis church calls for LGBTQ+ community to face death penalty A pastor at Sure Foundation Baptist Church in Indianapolis preached a sermon titled "Pray the Gay Away" calling for the death or suicide of LGBTQ+ individuals, prompting local faith leaders to condemn...

The boldness of the hate here is horrifying. An Indianapolis pastor said in a sermon--livestreamed on social media--that LGBTQ+ people should either kill themselves or face the death penalty. And when the media reached out for comment, the church doubled down.

#metascience2025

Marriage is just a lot more work for women, with fewer rewards. There is still a large gap in who does the cleaning and (less so) the childcare, and men have more free time than women. Men's jobs are prioritized over women's-- couples are much more likely to move for the man's job.

There is a huge effort to censor any mention of inequality in America.

"The United States *was* the largest donor to Gavi, whose work is estimated to have saved the lives of 17 million children around the world over the past two decades."

We're looking for a Research Fellow / Senior Research Fellow in metascience to join our team at UCL!
