@paola_baca527 and I are collecting data for a study on the development of specialized fears in collab w/ @ProfDavidBuss. We need parents and kiddos aged 8 to 15 to participate in a 20-30 minute study over zoom. Plz fill out the form if interested. RT, too!https://t.co/LA7q3vuhNb

Across cultures, women are *much* higher than men on fearful personality traits. Why?

Our new SPPS paper—led by Joe Manson w/ Kristine Chua, @rodriguezNina_ @michael_barlev @durkeepk—provides an answer

tl;dr the sex diff in fear is mediated by that in physical strength

I had a lot of fun writing this and learned a lot about evo approaches to the social sciences.

Attn #HBES2021 Poster Presenters:

Yesterday, I mistakenly said PowerPoint posters saved as PDF should be in 3:4 aspect ratio.

The correct recommendation is to use a 4:3 aspect ratio.

Apologies! Please RT

I think everyone could use a lighthearted/happy story right now so here goes:

At the beginning of the pandemic I went through some painful personal stuff and would often go out at night for long walks because no one was around and I couldn’t sleep anyway. One night I was walking

Why isn't the APA manual a freely available website rather than a $40 book that almost all students are required to purchase?

[Amanda G.E. @GoldenEddyA]

@DarwinFeminist @rodriguezNina_ It’s with another grad student right now lol. Hopefully you can find a cheap version soon!

[Amanda G.E. @GoldenEddyA]

@DarwinFeminist @rodriguezNina_ It really is a great read! And same, the cheapest I could find it was $29 on Amazon

[Amanda G.E. @GoldenEddyA]

@DarwinFeminist No, but it looks great!

[Amanda G.E. @GoldenEddyA]

What are some of your fave documentaries and on what platform can I find them? I’m looking for anything interesting (science, biography, political, conspiracy, niche subject, etc.)

[Rebecka Hahnel-Peeters @RandomMutations]

My first publication (with Jessica Idoine, Russell Jackson, and @aarongoetz) is now available online.
We tested Jackson and Cormack's (2007) proposal that the vertical-horizontal illusion may be a byproduct of the environmental vertical illusion.

Today, for Halloween fun, half of our lab dressed up as me, the other half as @aarongoetz. For good measure, @OstensiblyHuman came up with spooky screen names for everyone 🎃🎃🎃

Best lab!

Our lab students started a blog!

Here, 1st year MA student @sarahmassiee explores evolution of emotional facial expressions

Her intuition: facial expressions evolved to communicate emo state, but specific facial configurations have ⬆️ basic functions

Finished this today! I really enjoyed it! Definitely recommend to anyone interested in feminist issues, evolutionary theory, and how they can compliment each other (even when that seems impossible).

Thanks for letting me borrow it, @GoldenEddyA! 💁🏻‍♀️
