We also found carryover effects, as well as gender and age effects - highlighting the importance of considering these factors in designing future studies examining social facilitation and/or competitive coaction. Thanks to @erc.europa.eu and @ehsfacultyatul.bsky.social for funding 2/3

Arising out of discussions in @csi-research.bsky.social we conducted a Registered Report replicating Triplett’s (1898) experiment with over 400 children, showing children completed the task faster when paired with a coactor, compared to competing the task alone rdcu.be/eQwAE 1/3

This research, hosted by @ulpsych.bsky.social, aims to identify key predictors of burnout in high-stress professions. By understanding what contributes to burnout, we can help inform more targeted, effective strategies for prevention and support.

Thrilled to be awarded a @breakthrought1duk.bsky.social grant to understand more about Diabetes Burnout, starting later this year. This project will see a translation of the new discoveries @elainekinsella.bsky.social and I have made in work burnout to T1D burnout. Can't wait to get started!

Most read on #RTEBrainstorm: modern workplaces mean an ever-growing list of unfinished tasks so what can we do to fix this and reduce stress? By @elainekinsella.bsky.social @unioflimerick.bsky.social @researchireland.ie www.rte.ie/brainstorm/2...

I've had a top few days in the Psych department at UL with the most excellent @elainekinsella.bsky.social. We've made great headway on the @cv19heroes.bsky.social 5 Year Survey and future funding plans. Amazing what two people can get done with some dedicated time! Thank you for having me, UL!

Huge thanks to @loleenberdahl.bsky.social for writing this guide to being a Bishop in a world of Pawns open.substack.com/pub/loleen/p...

📍🧵A timeline of our papers and work so far from this project. We'll keep adding to this as more work comes out! A very BIG thank you to all that have participated, supported, shared, liked, and RT'd us along the way. We couldn't have done any of this without you.

The @cv19heroes.bsky.social megathread is back! It's actually a bit 🤯 to see the volume of work @elainekinsella.bsky.social and I have produced from this project with zero grant funding (hint hint). And there's plenty more to come too! 📅 Our 5 Year Survey launches in March

Great to attend the 1st Doctoral College UL Research supervisor 'lifecycle' programme (module 1) today led by Prof Ann MacPhail & Dr Ger Downes with excellent panel contributions from each of our 4 faculties @UL #phdsupervision
