@MeVarnum @michael_barlev Glad you liked it! And yes, I think a huge potential upside here is getting those folks judged to be part of the "neutral" group in our survey work on the inclusive behavior boat, not wasting our time telling them to stop discriminating (when they are not)
Come to my #SPSP2022 symposium this afternoon at 2P/3M/4C/5E! Title: Testing discrimination’s manifestation and pursuing its eradication. My talk will summarize findings from work I published with @brauerlab1 in JEP:G on dispersed v. concentrated discrimination.
It seems other people tend to get nervous before a talk but then feel great during the talk. So why do I feel super calm before the talk and only get nervous during the talk?? 🥴 #SPSP2022 Still fun as always of course 😺
Extremely disappointed to see @MattFutterman objectifying and commenting on the bodies of women in this way, particularly a woman who is outspoken about her own struggles with disordered eating. Please do better. @jessdiggs, we love and support you!
Deeply honored & humbled to receive @SPSSI's Gordon Allport Intergroup Relations Prize with @MiRoCampbell & @brauerlab1 for our @NatureHumBehav paper on using social norms messaging to create a more inclusive climate & reduce the achievement gap: https://t.co/axSlQO5hoj
Today in teaching hilarity: I included a group pic with me in it in my slides in class. A few of my students couldn’t identify me because they didn’t know I had a mustache, so they asked me to pull my mask down for a moment to show I really had a mustache
Great coverage of my work with @brauerlab1 in @sciam today! Creating well-targeted interventions to promote inclusion requires learning about the intergroup climate where you want to intervene, and part of that is examining how discrimination manifests! https://t.co/ezRvbpEYXf
As part of my intro psych class, each of our units covering the main domains of psychology (neuro, cog, dev, social, clinical) will have a "featured scholar." We will read an article written by this scholar and then discuss their work in class. (2/2)
ok #psychtwitter, I need your help!
Who are some people doing interesting, innovative work that is consumable by intro psych students?
I'd like to prioritize scholars who are young and from backgrounds underrepresented in psychology. Read on for more info (1/2)
T minus one hour until my presentation at @SPSSI, "Boosting students' intergroup self-fficacy increases their social network diversity!" Excited to hear people's responses to and questions about this work!
Hot off the presses! In this paper in the Journal of Social Marketing, we walk through the social marketing approach to developing a pro-diversity intervention. But does the intervention work? Spoiler alert: yes! To be described in a future paper. https://t.co/P62v19Acmw
@LindaSkitka@brauerlab1 and I did something like this in a recent paper in JEP:G (https://t.co/a18cBUUAIW). We were trying to determine whether discrimination was better explained by a dispersed account (most people discriminate sometimes) or concentrated account (few people do so often)
Today's paradox of choice conundrum: shopping for furniture and wishing every website operated more like Tinder. Let me tell you whether I like the rug or not, and if I don't please never show it to me again!
If you haven't registered for @SPSSI's virtual conference, do so today! I'm presenting a 15-minute talk Aug 5 at 2:00ET. I describe an intervention my RAs and I designed and tested intended to increase intergroup contact. Students had more diverse social networks months later!
@chrisjb1 et al (2021) argue that a heterogeneity revolution is coming to behavioral science (https://t.co/I9CJJgysog). I agree! This is a core idea of the social marketing approach (https://t.co/FJnmdLzRxu). Our interventions must be targeted to deliver on their promises
Very excited to see my paper with @brauerlab1 ~officially~ out in the latest issue of the Journal of Experimental Psych: General. This paper challenges us to think critically about how discrimination manifests, and how this in turn informs interventions https://t.co/a18cBUUAIW
