Is involved parenting, along with easy access to sedentary entertainment, dialing down kids’ opportunities for self-directed play? is the end of boredom near? I’m brainstorming methods to study this through patenting psychology. Hit me with ideas. www.essex.ac.uk/news/2023/08...

Insert any "xxx-addiction" rating scale for marginal phenomena or controversial everyday practices...

Her er de 11 værste gaver, du kan give Gavegivning er svært. Heldigvis har forskningen en lang række tips til, hvordan du undgår at give årets værste julegave.

Jeg arbejder på et nyt bogprojekt med masser af skæg bærplukket poppsykologi.

Faktisk blev det afbrudt af min bog om skærme. Men med research fra kapitlet "Derfor er folk er så dumme til familiefester" har jeg nu skrevet om 11 tåbelige julegavebommerter på videnskab.dk videnskab.dk/kultur-samfu...

Forsker (@lieberoth.bsky.social) opfordrer forældre til at sænke skuldrene og droppe bekymringer om skærmtid

Digitaliseringsforsker har undersøgt, hvad forskningen egentlig siger om børn og unges brug af skærme.

Good friends were able to snap a photo of my new (and first real longform) book Den Store Skærmkamp at this year's national books convention. In English the title would be "The Great Screen Battle - a dad and scientist's view on making peace with our kids, ourselves, and all those cursed screens"

This is why we work with group norms. Even if self reports probably never get at at ground truth latent variable, that we can interpret perfectly, we can still look for patterns within the populations we're interested in - from distributions to within- and between- subjects statistics.

Will read

...and small chunks of plastic, and an alternative that is entirely compliant with EU laws for toxins etc..

The company then claims, that the illegal product is fine to keep on the shelves, as long as buyers are also offered the expensive premium alternative.

Caveat emptor or caveat venditor?

And so came the day, where #Meta tried to address EU decisions on data privacy and social media, by offering a paid premium service.

I'm no lawyer, but I can't help thinking that this is kinda like bringing two lunch meats to market. One way above the legal limit of additives, heavy metals,... /1/2

Hvis du arbejder med skole I Danmark, og brænder for at give digitale børn bedre voksne, åbner vi nu for en ny pulje "Kig ind"-skoler til NOBE-projektets tidlige grundforskning.

Vi skal samle en masse viden og historier fra 3-4. + 7-8- klasse, som bliver omsat til læremidler.

Super excited by this new preprint from my team! Bayesian + strong theory + social media 😍

New paper confirms that if you p-hack like crazy false positives inflate a lot. If you p-hack within constraints they inflate a little. I say: If you learn about sequential analysis, your false positives do not inflate, you are more efficient, and a better scientist: lakens.github.io/statistical_...

Lige nu deler @lieberoth.bsky.social fornuft og forskning i #P1 med budskabet om at skærmdebatten i børnehaver er en pseudo-diskussion
Men Mathias Tesfari vil hellere sparke en åben dør ind og score billige point på Gurli Gris

I enjoyed it. Not at all what I was expecting, but very interesting.

Still trying to work out if it's just plain fiction.

(and TBH this is also just me testing out the #bluesky science and writing community on my second day here)

I have short chapters retelling studies about stupid situations (stupid in traffic, online, with your credit card...) and stupid people (stupid teens, pensioners, bosses, "smart people"...) leading into a more general cognition/psychology part.

So I can use great studies about groups and situations

My current #scicomm #writing project is a light book about #stupidity.

I distinguish between situational stupid (gaffs, inattention, stress...), lack of perspective (domain knowl., cultural sensibility, crystallised) & people w lower IQ/cognitive abilities.

Hit me with fun #psychology + #science 😃

Of course.

Because of high trust and social cohesion, Danes tend to expect a lot of other people implicitly. We don't come out and say things, but when we do, it tends to be straightforward and literal, which sometimes comes off as angry, rude or borderline autistic to foreigners. :-)

Looking from Denmark, it's not a q of rude alone, but of trust and power distance too. Relations are informal. My students don't see me as a far removed member of a different echelon, and are encouraged to reflect and even question my critique, which makes the "direct" approach softer in reality

Some researchers fear hitting the "control for sociodemographic status"-button because it's more than likely to decimate any correlations between factors like #screentime and development, wellbeing, risk of various diseases.

Either that, or cinema... checks notes.... protects against diabetes...?

I briefly went back to #twitter to make a little noise about my new book (in Danish) only to find a ghost town. A post that easily garnered 271 reactions on Linkedin vs gave 16 likes on X. 🫥

So... I am told that this is where we hang out to talk #psychology #technology and #scicimm now?

haha... jeg vakler lige nu omkring brug af ord som "vi", "du", "mennesker" og "folk"...

det må jo prøves :-)
