Check out the first publication out of the Emotional Lives Lab at UCR! Congratulations Macey on your first first-authored paper 👏

Click through this thread to learn more about the benefits of combining idiographic and nomothetic approaches to studying emotions in daily life!

These approaches could be helpful for a) person-specific interventions and b) culturally sensitive measurement of daily experiences

6/8

Integrating idiographic measurement of emotions into common nomothetic measures in daily life allows us to discover generalizable patterns in emotion experience as well as nuanced deviations from these patterns.

5/8

We argue that combining these nomothetic and idiographic approaches (see example) provides the best of both worlds: asking about widely studied emotions, while allowing people to further describe their emotions in their own words

I am so excited to share my first first-author publication “Generalizing Across People or Capturing Unique Personal Experiences? Nomothetic to Idiographic Ways of Assessing Self-Reported Emotions in Daily Life”

I’m looking for a postdoctoral scholar to join me in the Self & Society Laboratory at UC Riverside! Sharing would be much appreciated! aprecruit.ucr.edu/JPF02104

A very late, but still very exciting, update on where I’ll be continuing my education! I’m so excited to join the Emotional Lives Lab at UC Riverside as a PhD student under the mentorship of Dr. Tabea Springstein. I am looking forward to this next step in my academic journey 😊🎉

University of California, Riverside - Jobs UCR is hiring for this great opportunity!

I'm looking for a new Lab Manager to join me, my amazing incoming PhD students @isabellafavalos.bsky.social and @maceygrisso.bsky.social, and our fantastic undergraduate RAs in the Emotional Lives Lab at UC Riverside.
Sharing would be much appreciated!
