Is "unlikely" quietly sabotaging climate communication? We show negative verbal probabilities make evidence and scientific consesus sound weaker than their positive counterparts. New in Nature Climate Change: www.nature.com/articles/s41... led by @mariejuanchich.bsky.social #SciComm

Our new research shows that explaining the nature of illness and providing point-of-care test results to patients might be just quite useful tools to calibrate their antibiotic expectations (changing threshold but also discernment)... #antibiotic @abc-network.bsky.social @essexuni.bsky.social

Excited to finally have in my hands a copy of our new book Statistics for Psychology Using R: A Linear Models Perspective (written with Alasdair Clarke, not on bsky) !! 📘 www.mheducation.co.uk/statistics-f... #PsychSciSky #neuroskyence #statistics #statssky @rhulpsychology.bsky.social

I had an interesting 2nd day at #ICBM2025 in Vienna today. In our session, I presented our work on communicating about #AMR and pudent antibiotic use when new antibiotics are developed. Please visit @abc-network.bsky.social if you are interested in the emerging field of behavioral research and AMR.

We are still looking for collaborators, especially from Africa, Asia and South America for our project on how people from around the world correct their intuitive reasoning errors. More information below. Pls join and share! psysciacc.org/projects/psa...

Great conference in #Vienna last week thanks to @abc-network.bsky.social! www.linkedin.com/posts/cortne...

I presented our latest preprint validating interventions to mitigate #AntibioticResistance by reducing the pressure that patients place on clinicians to prescribe unnecessary #antibiotics — slides and link to preprint below: (I'll summarize the final online talk from Andriana Theodoropoulou next.)

An inspiring keynote by @aliciad3.medsky.social at our Behavioral Insights and AMR workshop about how behavioral science can contribute to amr stewardship

Fantastic to see @debbamber.bsky.social present ethnographic data on behavioural and social factors impacting blood culture sampling at the annual ABC Workshop. Great work as part of our NIHR-funded iSAMPLE project!

Thought provoking keynote from @cortneyprice.bsky.social about how behavioral scientists should approach and influence policy makers

@evakrockow.bsky.social kick-starting the workshop on Behavioral insights and AMR with her talk about AMR risk communication... we need to communicate about AMR better.

Excited to be in Vienna for this year's Behavioural Insights & Antimicrobial Resistance Workshop by the ABC network. Looking forward to a stimulating day and interesting discussions! Thanks for hosting us, @robertboehm.bsky.social! #AMR #antibioticresistance

As grant money starts drying up, it's more important than ever not to waste it on paying publishers' open access "article processing fees" when we can host PDFs for free. Tom Morgan and I wrote a paper on this, forthcoming at Science and Public Policy. Accepted draft here: osf.io/preprints/os...

New forthcoming perspective paper in Nature Reviews Psychology: “Defining System 2 deliberation for dual-process models” preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps... (1/5)

It's publication day! 📄 By some odd coincidence, I had two papers and one preprint published in one day (whoop whoop)! Here's a brief overview (a 🧵) Thanks to my brilliant co-authors, incl. Carolyn Tarrant, @marcmendelson.bsky.social, & Stephen Flusberg!

A few spots are still available to present at the upcoming Behavioural Insights & Antimicrobial Resistance Workshop, May 15/16 in Vienna — so we’re extending the submission deadline to April 13! 🔗 Apply now: www.a-bc.network/active.html

Still some time to submit your work to our annual workshop!

New paper led by @riangross.bsky.social published in @jac-amr.bsky.social: "Emphasizing the importance of prudent antibiotic use decreases unrealistic perceptions of new antibiotic discoveries" The title says it all. doi.org/10.1093/jaca...

Visit us in Vienna and attend the 3rd Behavioural Insights & Antimicrobial Resistance Workshop on May 15-16. We welcome submissions of all kinds of social and behavioural research related to AMR. For details, see the post below.

1/2 Join us to explore how behavioural science can help address antimicrobial resistance. 3rd Behavioural Insights & Antimicrobial Resistance Workshop When: 15–16 May 2025 Where: University of Vienna (+online option) Organised by @robertboehm.bsky.social and @miroslavsirota.bsky.social

Hey everyone! 👋👋 We're beyond excited to officially join BlueSky! 🌟 Stay tuned for exciting content on tackling antimicrobial resistance through innovative behavioural science approaches! 🦠🥊

Want to get editing experience? If you have a PhD & are a member of a group that’s historically underrepresented in editorial roles, apply for a 1 yr editorial fellowship at one of APS’s journals (including Psych Science)! Deadline 7 Feb. Please share! www.psychologicalscience.org/publications...

Many people talk about the "Golden Age of Antibiotics", but I hadn't seen it visualized properly. Just how many types of antibiotics were discovered during that time? So, I visualized it myself!

Scientists need to create more time to think...

Yes, that was fun, glad to see it's out!
