A belated THANKS to @saraemilyburke & @Mackenzie_Ess for being our second "Meet the Author" session for my diversity issues in psychology seminar @DukePsychNeuro! They pushed my students to consider sexual orientation (bisexuality specifically), and my students were so engaged!

She's on a roll -- another new paper by @Mackenzie_Ess! Participants say they really like individual poor people as long as they're portrayed as unambiguously hardworking, but is this how they see poor people in general? Temporary free download link: authors.elsevier.com/a/1eiWF51f8l3bG

New paper by @Mackenzie_Ess! When gay and straight people say they prefer not to date bisexual people, is it just an example of the general tendency to date people similar to oneself, or something more? doi.org/10.1080/009183…

Mason Lott is presenting some results from a larger project led by @Mackenzie_Ess, "The 'lazy poor' or the 'unlucky poor'? Manipulating class-based attributions at the group level and in a hiring context." He won an Undergraduate Student Poster Award for this work.


In tech news... this extremely talented programmer was interviewed for & won at this year's Butler Hackathon! #siblingpride youtu.be/lebiPdTNfN8 via @YouTube

Back in a nerve-racking job interview, my answers were a mess. But asked whom I wanted to emulate, “Ed Diener” was my clear answer. He embodied brilliance, positivity, productivity, hospitality, generosity, supportiveness, humor, and love for learning. I will miss him dearly.
