Perfect 2mins on the hard fact that 1-1 use of tech in schools around 2010 was bad for learning

🚨 New paper: Psychological, social, and health-related factors predict risk for financial exploitation (Yang et al @jenyangyi.bsky.social @dfareri.bsky.social) out in Communications Psychology. It’s not just age/income—trust, fairness, and emotion regulation matter too. 🔗 doi.org/10.1038/s442...

🚨 New preprint: Contributions of default mode network to subjective valuation and maladaptive decision making (PsyArXiv). We argue the DMN shapes how we value choices — and how its disruption contributes to poor decisions. 🔗 doi.org/10.31234/osf... with @dfareri.bsky.social

Results from three studies that examined 1,918 U.S. adults show that financial exploitation risk is heightened by an interplay of sociodemographic, health, cognitive, and psychosocial vulnerabilities. @dvsmith.bsky.social @dfareri.bsky.social @jenyangyi.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Come to sunny San Diego, April 14-20, 2026, for #SANS2026!

What's with the revival of "limbic"? In recent cog neuro textbooks, papers, and scientific talks, I've seen more of the "limbic system" than I have for years. Affective neuroscientists argued that this idea should be thrown out *25 years ago*. Why are we backsliding? #friendsdontletfriendssaylimbic

Science doesn’t grow in a vacuum; it thrives on shared ideas and fresh perspectives. Thanks to #sans2025 for building bridges and connecting the dots, and to @elisabaek.bsky.social & @jfguassimoreira.bsky.social for creating the opportunity!

Please share! @sparksociety.bsky.social @affectscience.bsky.social @blackinneuro.bsky.social #psychjobs
