Do people have policies on what they do when undergrads use Chat-GPT to complete surveys for course credit? Asking for a very tired me. #psychscisky #academicchatter

Just got this on a first round R&R and cheered all the way to the scroll at the end of the email where there was a 3pg pdf of additional reviewer 2 comments attached 🫠

I feel like the first gives “child drew dog and knew there should be legs but not sure where they go” and the second gives “child drew dog and forgot legs so added some feet at the end”

the idea that it is invidious discrimination to recognize the specific challenges faced by a particular group of applicants and provide financial assistance for them is infuriatingly insane www.dukechronicle.com/article/2024...

Measurement folks out there, has anyone played around with the (new to me) qualtrics fraud score? What is it indexing? How good is it? Is it worth paying attention to? #AcademicChatter

For context, the regret rate amongst cis women for breast implants is 19.5%, breast reduction 5% and knee surgery (across genders) is between 6-30%. Gender affirming care for trans folks is some of the most successful medical intervention possible

Happy bees happy trees 🌸🐝

Is it time for the weekend yet??

Check out my new work set up! 🤣

With Trans Day of Visibility entering the culture wars, important research from Lewis et al. finds that perceptions of cultural threat from the LGBTQ community is linked with support for restrictive policies against trans people doi.org/10.1007/s111...

And the Mechanical Turk is usually operated by people being paid lower wages in a different country

Oh my god, Amazon's Just Walk Out "tech" was a mechanical Turk. Looked automatic, but was really workers in India watching the camera feeds to figure out what to charge you. gizmodo.com/amazon-repor...

Does anyone have suggestions on assessing experiences of discrimination in healthcare settings for sexual minority men? preferrably things that are short for a super long survey lol. #healthpsych #socialpsyc #psychology

We have extended the deadline for abstract submission to the 2nd International Trans Studies Conference until April 15th! Please review especially the protocols for coordinated panels very carefully. More info here: transstudiesconference.org #transstudies #genderstudies #transgender

I'm looking to follow more psychologists outside my field (social psychology). Who should I be following? Who else is #OnHere? #PsychSky 🤓

When asked who is an expert in their field, men #psychology researchers name significantly fewer women than their women colleagues do. This has implications for the gender gap. More in my new story for Science. With @veronicayan.bsky.social  www.science.org/content/arti...

"hey babe, check out this empirical debunking of a pop-sci concept" "awww, babe"

If anyone is interested in which platforms have better quality

My sense of belonging just spiked when SPSP President Cynthia Pickett wished us happy Lunar New Year at the #SPSP2024 presidential plenary 😂

Pairing instructions to not use ChatGPT with a warning about the consequences of using it (i.e., not being paid) leads to a significant reduction in ChatGPT use in surveys

that is what the experts recommend 😉 @psychscience.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/psyc...

*NEW PAPER ALERT!* In a new paper at OBHDP, my coauthors (Desman Wilson & Adam Waytz) and I find evidence that potential allies do not think their allyship will be appreciated as much as it actually is. Read our paper here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1iXfL2gS5O...

Please recommend short social psych/ JDM papers that have very simple design amenable to online recruitment, straightforward stats (t-test or 2x2 ANOVA), and preferably only 1 or 2 studies. No preference for year. This is for my research methods lab in which students replicate-extend prev research.

SNOWWWWWWW definitely not in california anymore 😅

Does anyone have any suggestions for experts in the relationship between financial debt and mental well-being?

Happened to find one of these bad boys on my first day at the office @psychscience.bsky.social 🤓😂

Does anyone have recommendations for cross-country movers?

Excited to share my Q&A research was summarized in Forbes! www.forbes.com/sites/kimels...

New pub out in Sex Roles on gender differences in Q&A participation at virtual conferences! We observed 4 conferences that varied in size, topic, gender base rates, and Q&A format (e.g., video vs. chat) and found men disproportionately use collective Q&A time. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

🚨🚨 New Pub Alert 🚨🚨 Excited to share this new pub at Collabra with Z Ferguson and Jason Okonofua. With principals from across the US, we didn't find racial disparities in discipline. Thanks to the folks at Collabra for seeing value not just in research that "works" but also in null results.
