It’s the end of an era. Consider this the final yearbook photo from my academic career. It’s been one hell of a time and a new frontier awaits.

Today, I officially start as Program Manager of Behavioral Science and Customer Insights @ICF and I couldn’t be more excited 😁

@AlexandraYLS @ScousEmma @Theholisticpsyc I was reading tweets that talked about trauma from parents. I meant trauma can happen elsewhere and trauma from neglect

@AlexandraYLS @ScousEmma @Theholisticpsyc I can think of people raised in orphanages even if they were only in the orphanage for less then a year.

Our new article "Feasible Climate Mitigation" just came out in @NatureClimate !

In short, we need to assess the whole process from adoption, implementation to response.

Yes, I officially retract my 2006 Finite Pool of Worry hypothesis. Data more consistent with Johnson & Tversky 1983 Affect Generalization. But we find a Finite Pool of Attention and Action!

@DrUenal @CameronBrick @kristiansn89 @adrianbruegger Glad to learn of these two papers. Because of your interest in presentation of multiple behaviors, the following might also be of interest. https://t.co/NAl4y2yi7H

@Chadfisher84 @DallasSybarite @georgehahn My daughter went to NYC. Came back w COVID. Didn’t know it till a few days latter after she gave it to her dad and I. No masks. We had light symptoms because we’d been vaxed. So you’re but ppl don’t know if they have it. Less need for masks now for most.

This is just an early example of how the private sector will drive early adaptation to climate change through insurance rates and mortgage rates.

@DallasSybarite @georgehahn It is probably more important that you spend your effort to convince them to be vaccinated and boosted. You may need different tactics for those who are vs are not vaccinated and boosted.

[Janet K. Swim @JanetSwim]

@Chadfisher84 @DallasSybarite @georgehahn It’s not whether they work or not but whether the help. Read the other explanations I. This thread to understand how they help.

It's been 10 years since I got my PhD. So I few scattered reflections on things I've come to realise over the years, which I hope might be useful to others starting out...

What does the future hold for environmental law & policy in a polarized era? Here’s my cut. @kristiansn89 @ProfKTQ @czarnezki @JoshGalperin @SarahFRobinson @jg_environ @JonathanAdler @cityatlas https://t.co/iMevJ7SOUW

@_david_ho_ Merchants of doubt for the tactics used to spread misinformation

[Janet K. Swim @JanetSwim]

I have seen news articles about a policy poll Musk posted . I saw no poll where I could participate. Would I have to have followed him to vote? Or was I not randomly selected. I’ve seen no reported response rate. It sounds more like creating the illusion of democracy,

Congratulations on PhD candidate @CassandraLCTroy, who passed her comprehensive exams today! With co-advisors @JessMyrick & @skurka_chris, and committee members @profpinto & @JanetSwim (from @PSUPsychology).

[Michael Vandenbergh @michaelvandenb6]

Good to see @washingtonpost emphasizing the importance of individual actions. I might have chosen a different set of priority actions, but the key is to get going, not to quibble about specifics. @kristiansn89 @VanderbiltEELU https://t.co/IThBPsiW4z

Thanks to @templeton_fdn for highlighting our work on empathy for animals with @JanetSwim @rmchiles @ElianaHadTime & Mike Lengieza.
Many more interesting studies ahead!

We recently published a paper on the implications of shrinking household sizes for meeting climate targets. We show that reversing the trends around household sizes and economic growth alongside other interventions will be key to reduce emissions in rich countries / thread
