I'm very excited to share that @ArberTasimi and I just published a review on how social norms could be used to promote children's sustainable behaviors! It's out now in the Journal of Cognition and Development: https://t.co/nXPDkDoUAh

PLEASE SHARE!

I am looking for a postdoc to join my lab at Emory. The postdoc will conduct studies with infants and children on social cognitive development. This is a 3-year position with a summer 2024 start date.

I'm presenting my first project of grad school at #SPSP2024 today! Stop by to hear about who children expect to engage in self-promotional behavior 🤔

[Arber Tasimi @ArberTasimi]

I’m hoping to admit a PhD student this admissions cycle (for entrance in fall 2024), so please spread the word!

And take a look at my lab’s website (https://t.co/asaLIFk9Ws) to learn more about who we are and what we’ve been up to lately.

My 1st first-author paper is out for early view in Child Development! This was the very first project I started working on with @bccognition and I'm thrilled to see it out. Who performs better in a competitive math game, boys or girls? Maybe not who you'd expect!

[Lesenia Fish @LeseniaFish]

@byrd_nick Certainly not what we expected, either! I'm definitely still mulling these results over 🤔 Thanks for reading and sharing!

After their adviser died, @ShaunaBowes1 & @tomstello_ asked me to be their new adviser. I didn’t think twice about what to do; I once experienced a similar loss.

Check out my piece @ScienceMagazine where I share this story & honor Susan Nolen-Hoeksema.

🗞️Hot off the press @NatureComms📢:
Americans think a minority in the US are worried about climate change & support climate policy—it's really a super majority.

This “False Social Reality” is near-universal in the US & fully inverts the true norm: https://t.co/kNJCfLooKx 1/3

I'm so proud of these seniors! Getting to work with these students for the last 2+ years (!!) and mentor one's thesis has been such a joy 😊

Congrats to our lab's senior thesis students who presented at the @bc_psychneuro Undergraduate Research Conference today! We're so proud of these projects and your work this year! 🥳🧠

Now out in Developmental Science! In work with @TashaPosidPhD @Sclammie @cmossrac and Laura Hymes, we find relations between parents' and their children's math attitudes and beliefs, with particularly strong relations between parents and daughters. (1/7) https://t.co/3k6cvfxVM2
