An important piece from the @apsrjournal.bsky.social (by @devorahmanekin.bsky.social and @tmitts.bsky.social) to make sense of ongoing events: it matters not only which tactics are adopted by protesters but also who they are.

Excited to share a new paper in @nature.com (www.nature.com/articles/s41...)

We show how a change from five-star ratings to thumbs up/down eliminated a race gap in worker ratings and income

Sometimes the right solution is the simple one

β€˜I really wanted something to happen.’ The students behind the Stand Up for Science protests New group hopes to turn out researchers for 7 March demonstrations against Trump administration policies

Scientists are now organizing events, called Stand Up for Science, on 7 March in Washington, D.C., and state capitals.

So far, they have attracted more than 100 volunteers from some 30 states who are hoping to rally support for research as a public good. scim.ag/4328LAD

Racial bias eliminated when ratings switch from five stars to thumbs up or down | Nature Implementing a performance-rating system with a two-point scale instead of a five-point scale could be an easy way to temper racial prejudices and tangibly improve income equality for workers from under-represented groups. Switch in performance-rating system could reduce racial pay gap.

Interested in a nudge that can reduce the expression of racial bias in performance evaluations? In the March issue of @nature.com, I cover excellent new work by @tristanbotelho.bsky.social, Sora Jun, Demetrius Humes, and

In the two days since this segment, I’ve gotten at least a dozen messages & emails from parents or teachers telling about the awful things their girls have been experiencing or asking for copies of the resource for schools etc- and a handful of messages, all from men, asking to β€œtalk” with me 1/

Marie Curie And The Women Scientists Who Became Her Legacy A new book looks at the life of Marie Curie through the lens of some of the 45 women who passed through her laboratory.

A scientist’s legacy isn’t just discoveries or awardsβ€”it also includes the students and colleagues who pass through their orbit over the years.

Author Dava Sobel joins us to discuss Marie Curie and the women she mentored.

How do you keep participants from using AI rather than answering open-ended survey questions in their own words? Create some friction.

Katie Kroeper describes disabling cut-and-paste in Qualtrics as a way of creating barriers to the use of AI:

What 9,000 articles reveal about gendered narratives in political campaigns Recent research looks at the direct and subtle ways gender is discussed in media coverage of candidates.

How does the media directly or indirectly reference gender in other election settings, where women candidates are less novel? Read MSIRA fellow @kafei0220.bsky.social's @3streamsblog.bsky.social post about a recent article in Political Research Quarterly: medium.com/3streams/is-...
