@MikeyPasek @LindaSkitka @lkfazio @pdakean I got an invite via the marvelous @fernandaedi So I'm taken care of. Thank you!

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@MikeyPasek @LindaSkitka @lkfazio @pdakean I'd love an invite, if anyone has a spare! Thanks so much!

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@fernandaedi I am interested if you get any more! Thanks!

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@sarahesilverman And here's the annotated lit review/tech report: https://t.co/9T4u0ffcf6

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@sarahesilverman Hi Sarah! Not sure we "theorized" this but we definitely called out the segregation. https://t.co/pdxDtNBQGe

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@E_Marocchini @milton_damian @Codici Thanks! Here's another article in this tradition, although it's not empirical, just an essay, and is much older (2006!). It questions whether it is only autistic people who have difficulty with reciprocity! Thanks again! https://t.co/Dnfrwvrh2i

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@MattMattoni @vpmurty Thank you, and I agree! V. frustrating! I mentioned some functional imaging results that also led to the "tails you win, tails you lose" mentality in this piece (in the section on over-hyping brain differences). Thanks for engaging w/me on this! https://t.co/2a8YGU69tb

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@MattMattoni @vpmurty That was also my interpretation (a bunch of years ago) re: structural imaging! https://t.co/eMktU9gUIw

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@selfcaregamer1 Agree! From our article, "Do puzzle pieces and autism puzzle piece logos evoke negative associations?," the answer appears to be Yes (they do evoke negative associations) https://t.co/0hsRnxH2Pe

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@KaydenStockwell @UFCJCLibrarian Yes, I do have a Seuss plagiarism activity. It's based on a PPT by Azman and Fox. All the materials you'll need are in Unit 6: Assignment #3 of my open-access active-learning (college level!) Research Methods course! https://t.co/wwkxQrK0G6

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@HeiniMNatri @FunFactsLulu p.s. There's also a lot of studies comparing parent-report with clinician- or teacher-report (or with "standardized" assessments)!

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@HeiniMNatri @FunFactsLulu We reviewed some of these reported mismatches in this article: https://t.co/GbN0Ly6s2H I hope that's helpful!

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@PessimistsArc Can you provide a source for this excellent example? Thank you!

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@E_Marocchini @CambUP_LangLing @ethankutlu What a great article! I'm looking forward to reading it! Thank you for sharing this important message!

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@shannon47burns @Hannah_R_Snyder Here's a popular press article I assign to students (and Hannah, 👋, big applause for this necessary thread!) https://t.co/85ZaEZVS3Z

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@Kyle_Ireton Hi Kyle. I thoroughly appreciate your incredibly positive Tweets and am amazed at how personable you are in all your comments. I'm a faculty member at UW-Madison (probably your oldest follower), and I'm extremely curious about and supportive of alt-ac. https://t.co/FYMyHMiOTn

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@Shaynagram In Chelsea Andrew's and my Basic Stats course, we start with utility value -- how students can use the information in their daily lives! See, e.g., Unit 1 in our open-access active-learning course, of which you're welcome to use anything and everything! https://t.co/JjRUzHUu0O

[MortonAnnGernsbacher @GernsbacherLAB]

@AutSciPerson @ErinInTheMorn Yes, exactly! Even 25 years ago, Julie Foertsch and I did a couple of studies that show exactly what you have identified!

"Taken together, the results of these two experiments demonstrate that the increased use of singular they is not problematic for the majority of readers."
