Society Workshop is a nonprofit that (1) uses social science in partnership with communities to solve challenges, (2) puts research-backed knowledge and insights in the hands of the public, and (3) offers training to future social scientists.

Are you interested in using science to improve policies and training? Supporting future generations of scholars? Helping to ensure critical knowledge production is not compromised by funding disruption and political interference? Check this out and consider supporting! www.societyworkshop.org

🧵1/4 New paper alert! psycnet.apa.org/record/2026-... Can you celebrate diversity while undermining it? Our new paper in American Psychologist discusses how people/organizations can appear committed to diversity while their conceptualizations of diversity actively undercut it.

Like many others, Angela, Kelci, and I were disappointed to learn that the NSF grant supporting Flourish was terminated last week. Flourish remains committed, now more than ever, to our mission of uplifting pre-tenure faculty of color in psychology. Learn more & spread the word about our community.

Unfortunately, the NSF grant that supports our work has been terminated. This is a setback, but our mission has not changed. We will continue to work hard on making cognitive science a more inclusive field. Stay tuned for upcoming events.

I'm disappointed to share that my NSF career grant on anti-Asian dehumanization was terminated. This affects ongoing project activities, which have shown great progress so far, and support for my research team and more. I'm sad to share that the hiring of the postdoc role is currently on pause.

Elon Musk has succeeded in spite of the way he treats others, not because of it. Belittling is not a leadership strategy—it reflects a lack of self-control. Demeaning doesn't get results—it thwarts productivity. Disrespect for the status quo can be a virtue. Disrespect for people is a vice.

As part of @purduehhs.bsky.social Life Inspired Week, Juwels for Posterity poster session (led by Dr. Chenell Loudermill) was organized to highlight the outstanding work that impacts humanity based on rigorous science and authentic engagement. We had a great turnout & 20 posters were presented!

New study out in @sfjournal.bsky.social. We find Christian nationalism is among the leading predictors of multiple measures of racial solidarity, but ONLY FOR WHITES.
