Thrilled to share our latest work with @QiWang_Cornell published @CognitionJourn !
We found that low perceived country well-being fuels pessimistic expectations for the future. Negative news exposure worsens this outlook by lowering perceptions of country’s current state.
Our recent studies found that differing from participants from many other nations, Chinese anticipate their country’s future to be as bright as their personal future

Our new study in Memory found that remembering success (vs failure) and autobiographical (vs vicarious) events was related to positive self-views in Americans but not Asians. @MertNazike@yuchen_rachel

Today was the last day of my summer course Lifespan Memory Development. I designed this course for my candidacy exam and it was great to have the opportunity to actually teach it. This past 3 weeks has been extremely busy and stressful but also very fulfilling.
I’m not crying🥹
We found that the positivity of personal futures compared to collective futures is generalized to non-Western (Turkish) culture and both personal and collective future thinking are related to individuals' well-being.
Excited to share that our new article with @QiWang_Cornell is out in Cognition and Emotion! We examined the valence and perceived control in personal and collective future thinking in relation to psychological well-being.
