Yesterday was my last day as a post-doc @PsychUoA. I will miss all the wonderful people, researchers, students and friends I met and made over the last two years. Here is to new adventures, who knows what the future holds!

@jarlogan We end our fortnightly lab meetings with a round table of our “achievements, updates & appreciations”. We also have a quarterly “Finer Things” meeting where we celebrate with cheese, crackers, wine & other yummies.

Cumulative science is important. One result isn't a given. Reviewers still state things shouldn't be published because they are not novel enough. Yeh that's how we got into this replicabilty mess in the first place guys! #teamcumulativescience

Hi @ElsevierConnect! Our lab wants to share its findings with the families that participate in our research. These families do not have access to articles via your website. Can we host these PDFs on our lab website so our families can read about the work they participated in?

@matti_wilks @Yale @paulbloomatyale Amazing! Big hugs and huge congratulations. Hope the US is treating you and Joe well ☺️

This game. For me today, and one day for the children in my life who need to learn about who these women were 🙌 https://t.co/bRQ6lnuzvL

@Research_Tim LastPass has been good to me

@Adamdbulley Goodness that was unsettling and yet, a perfect example of our biases!

Makes me so sad evertime a new mother who has had a traumatic birth says “all that matters is the baby is ok”. Yes that matters, but mothers matter too. We need to heal women who’ve suffered birth trauma, not dismiss their experience as irrelevant.

Robots might be in the classroom before you know it. What are the implications for development? @kristynhensby

[Dr. Kristyn Sommer @DrKristynSommer]

I recently teamed up with @Robomum to tell you all about how children can learn from robots. Check our @ConversationEDU article below 🤖

Aussies killed by terrorism in last 4 years

Aussie women killed by male violence since Wed

When I compare it’s never to minimise threat of terrorism but to highlight far greater danger that gets no action/funding/leadership because its women dying at hands of everyday men

@lilypanton @UTAS_ No such thing as talking too much about Tasmania ☺️

[Dr. Siobhan Kennedy-Costantini @dr_skc]

@kristynhensby @frankiefong 👍🏻

[Dr. Siobhan Kennedy-Costantini @dr_skc]

@kristynhensby @frankiefong Makes total sense. So much of the concern re: screens is the absence of the social element. Add it back in and I imagine it ameliorates much of the shortcomings. If you’ve got any good papers care to share?

PSYC109 Students: do you believe, like Piaget, that children construct an understanding of the world largely on their own? #cogdev109 #classpolls
