New paper! Caregivers of cancer survivors have to cope with complicated emotions. Nevertheless, their perspective in regulating own and others' emotions is understudied. In our Opinion article in Frontiers in Psychology, we propose a new framework for interpersonal emotion regulation among caregivers of cancer survivors. More in this 🪡.

Two common findings from sleep research are that 1) short sleep durations predict worse health outcomes, and 2) people from some cultures sleep much less than those from others. Do people from cultures with short sleep durations have worse health outcomes? 🧵

Nice thread (look forward to reading the paper). It captures a recurring theme in the social psych of "people are idiots and fools" (and debunks one particular case):
1. Design a study to exploit something that people normally do for good reasons, but corrupt the reasons, so that
2. People look like idiots and fools
3. Then trumpet to the world how idiotic and foolish people are. "Hey, I just pubished a peer reviewed study! p<.05! You don't believe people are fools? Are you some sort of science denier?"
Same problem occurs in some of:
stereotype (in?)accuracy, stereotype biases, implicit "bias," attribution "errors," heuristics, confirmation bias, expectancy biases, context effects, conformity and more.
@hcnoel@DCOfficial@JamesGunn Wonderful! The connection between Gunn’s Superman and the Superman from the comic books is very meaningful. Your work is a perfect highlight of that.
Moved into my new house 10 days ago. A farm from 1651, it’s the oldest house I ever lived in! Most of it is already very livable but the kitchen desperately had to be renovated. Here’s the freshly plastered wall. It’s the coziest place of the house!
@sbuehler After the kitchen is installed, the place is ready. But with a house like this, there’s always going to be something to fix. Also, I have lots of ideas of what to do with the house and its garden, which are both spacious.
@PaulQuixotic So far so good. A neighbor did send me a wedding poem from 1762 that mentions the house. And the house is drawn into maps from 1760 and 1840. It has a name, it’s called ‘Essenstein’. I love all this stuff, history is so cool.
