A new amazing study led by my brilliant collaborator @colognaviktoria.bsky.social shows it’s not just experiencing extreme weather that matters — it’s whether people link it to climate change. Here’s my piece on it at @aunz.theconversation.com The published paper: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our recently published paper in Psychonomic Bulletin & Review on #reasoning styles and #belief in God is now featured by @psychonomicsociety.bsky.social! Thanks, Jonathan Caballero, for the interesting article. 📄 Read the paper here: doi.org/10.3758/s134...

great to see the work by @omidghasemi.bsky.social in the @aunz.theconversation.com read about our research here: theconversation.com/climate-scie...

Trust is a super power. Climate scientists are trusted globally, just not as much as other scientists. Check out this excellent summary of our latest research that explores the reasons why: theconversation.com/climate-scie... @mason4c.bsky.social @omidghasemi.bsky.social

🚨 New paper in Memory & Cognition with Simon Handley & Rachel Stephens! Do people have #intuitive access to #logic or just rely on simple heuristics? Our findings suggest “intuitive” reasoning often reflects heuristics, not logic. 📄 Read: rdcu.be/ehp0J

Am I the only person having difficulty accessing OSF files in my projects?

🚀 New publication alert! Ben Newell & I contributed two entries to the Elgar Encyclopedia of Behavioural & Experimental Economics: 🧠 Intuition: doi.org/10.4337/9781... ⚡ Heuristics: doi.org/10.4337/9781... #BehavioralScience #DecisionMaking #Intuition #Heuristics

Research by @omidghasemi.bsky.social et al suggests the framing effect is a rational response to information implied in the choice of frame—it is attenuated when the frame is not freely chosen and even more if speaker/listener interests are opposed:

🚀 New paper in Cognition! Across six preregistered experiments, Ben Newell, Adam Harris & I show that people are sensitive to information leakage in the framing effect, providing evidence for a rational account of decision-making. 📖 Read it here: authors.elsevier.com/sd/article/S...

Excited to share that our paper is now published in Nature Human Behaviour! A huge thanks to @colognaviktoria.bsky.social and @nielsmede.bsky.social for leading this huge project and to @robert-m-ross.bsky.social for helping me to join this :)

📣 *New science alert* 🌏Global trust in scientists project led by @colognaviktoria.bsky.social and @nielsmede.bsky.social is out today in Nature Human Behaviour: go.nature.com/40pox5P 🦘Some interesting Australia-specific results in our Conversation piece below, led by @mdmarques.com

Our preprint on a gap of trust in climate scientists vs scientists in general is featured in @science.org‘s news. Thanks to @omidghasemi.bsky.social who led this analysis and @cathleenogrady.bsky.social for reporting! 🔍 Preprint: osf.io/preprints/os... 📰 Science: www.science.org/content/arti...

Thanks to @science.org for covering our preprint on trust in climate researchers and to @cathleenogrady.bsky.social for the opportunity to comment on our work, which was led by @omidghasemi.bsky.social www.science.org/content/arti...

Big shout out to @cathleenogrady.bsky.social & her editors at Science Magazine for reporting on our research and other related new research on trust in scientists today today. www.science.org/content/arti... @colognaviktoria.bsky.social @nielsmede.bsky.social @naomioreskes.bsky.social

New paper! Across two large experiments (6,000+ participants globally), we found no evidence that subtle differences in climate change terminology influence willingness to take climate action. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Please submit an abstract to our @eurogeosciences.bsky.social session "Interdisciplinary approaches to addressing climate risks associated with weather extremes". Abstract deadline is 15 January 2025. More info: meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio...

New #preprint! We surveyed 71,922 people in 68 countries to find out: Where do they come across information about #science? How do they #communicate about it? We also tested country factors like #AcademicFreedom and #PressFreedom and identified interesting patterns 🔎 ➡️ osf.io/preprints/os... 🧵 1/10

Interesting findings about low trust in climate science. I have not read the paper yet, but will do! Seems like food for thought for all of us that do climate science, and the @ipcc.bsky.social more specifically.

🚨 New preprint 🚨 Are climate scientists less trusted than scientists in general? 🤔🌍 Yes, we find evidence of a significant trust gap between climate scientists and scientists in general. 👇🧵 osf.io/preprints/os...

🚨 New preprint alert! We investigated the trust gap between climate scientists and general scientists across 68 countries (N = 69,534) using the TISP dataset. Our study also explores the predictors behind this trust gap. #ClimateScience #TrustInScience osf.io/preprints/os...
