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!
Q: "What is your main driver to be involved in open science?" A: "Elsevier" #OSF2022NL
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…

"Errors in estimating the lack of social class mobility in American society appear... to be substantial. [T]his inaccuracy... downplays the inherent strain that economic inequality places... on individuals at the bottom of the social class hierarchy". @mwkraus #inequity
Thought I'd share some miscellaneous thoughts/lessons from two rounds on the job market: 🧵 1/n

interesting discussion of people who lost their passion during the pandemic, and the reflections its brought on, with some commentary from me: bbc.com/worklife/artic…
Students get VERY excited when they notice the Minecraft shortcut on my desktop. One thing led to another and I couldn't resist tying it in with the content! #AcademicChatter #teaching #stats
when you end up highlighting the entire article
my academic love language: when figures explain the whole paper, allowing me to understand the paper before/without reading it. what's your academic love language?

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.
Claude Steele: "What really counts is helping people" #SPSP2021
I did this in the last two years, happy to do it again #SPSP2021: If you're a social psychologist curious about business schools and why you belong here, send me a message — happy to take time to chat with you this week!
