I'm excited to share that I’ll be reviewing PhD applications this cycle for students interested in working with me starting Summer/Fall 2026. I’m especially looking for applicants excited about research on trust/persuasion, responses to historical harm, addressing inequality, and/or mindsets.

We (Goizueta Business School) are hiring a new lab manager for our behavioral lab. This is a great opportunity for recent undergrads who are hoping to get more research experience before a PhD. Would love to see your strong undergrads in this applicant pool. staff-emory.icims.com/jobs/150128/...

Are we “strangers to ourselves”? Classic theories say people have limited insight into how they decide. Our new paper at @natcomms.nature.com challenges this view. With @rcarl.bsky.social sky.social, @hedykober.bsky.social y.social, and @mjcrockett.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41... 🧵

Anyone looking to take an amazing clinical psych student who would come to grad school with an NSF GRFP in hand? Interests in stigma, adversity, but flexible! (Side note that it is awful that nsf doesn’t let you defer, apply next yr w/grant in hand, and just count that as 1 of 2 deferral yrs)

🌟 Exciting news! 🌟 This summer, one of my dreams is coming true: I’ll be joining Emory University - Goizueta Business School as an Assistant Professor of Organization & Management! I'm so grateful for the wonderful mentors, collaborators, and friends who helped me make this happen.

New work led by Thomas Vaughn-Johnston: 'The Preference for Neutrality.' Extremity is often seen as problematic, but some issues—like climate change—suffer from excessive neutrality. We created a scale to identify people dogmatically committed to neutrality, like others pursue extremity.

also have to relearn how to use social media. here's me connecting marketing principles with folks' sociopolitical ambivalence, and the social expectations versus reality about expressing that to others

Excited to share that I am officially on the academic job market! I’m currently a postdoc at UChicago Booth and did my graduate training in social psychology at Ohio State. If you know of any opportunities or have advice, I’d love to connect!

A goal for 2024 is to get a better handle on inputs to my energy level and mood. I’d like to use my nerd skills to track types of foods, exercise, sleep, caffeine, etc. I could do this in excel, but do folks have apps they’d recommend that would let me ⬇️ data to analyze?

Crowdsourcing literature - Are folks aware of papers showing that biases can enhance performance on certain tasks? Like if I self-enhance about my math abilities, I actually perform better on math tasks? Or if I have inflated views of my mentee or an issue, I am a better advocate for them/it?
