Extremely good and important work. Thank you @bttyeo.bsky.social

Neurofriends: has anyone used the 14 channel wireless EEG headset from Emotive Epoch X for research? If so, what was your experience? #neuroscience #eeg #cognitiveneuroscience

Thank you @suttonprofessor.bsky.social can’t wait!

This look awesome

Very excited about this!!

Recently, Cliff Sosis interviewed me for his website “what is it like to be a philosopher”, and my interview is now available online. It was fun, and sometimes Illuminating, to reflect on my career so far and to answer his questions. Link below! Would love to hear your thoughts!

Liza Bortolotti has done a beautiful job compiling a series of brilliant pieces to commemorate the invaluable philosophical legacy of Dan Dennett. I’m so grateful for having been invited to contribute and can’t wait to read it all!

At the end of my book on Memory and Remembering, I suggested that the debate between causalism and simulationism in the philosophy of memory is ill-construed. This suggestion caused some controversy, and I thought it would be a good idea to articulate that suggestion as clearly as possible. (1/2)

Really neat work by Fountas and colleagues at UCL: arxiv.org/abs/2603.04688 They propose that consolidation reflects a form of "predictive forgetting" that aids generalization.

Honest question: what do you think is the main problem AI is supposed to solve?

Very excited to share a Special Collection at the Journal of Neuroscience (@sfnjournals.bsky.social) - Central Questions for Social Neuroscience Research. This issue includes some of the latest perspectives on social neuroscience research. Please check it out!👇 www.jneurosci.org/content/46/8

M. J. Crockett (Princeton) is reshaping how we understand moral cognition. Their research shows how learning & decision processes shape moral behavior, and how technologies like social media can exploit those processes & erode trust. Read more: www.nasonline.org/award/trolan... #NASaward

Imagination in bonobos! I am thrilled to share a new paper w/ Amalia Bastos, out now in @science.org We provide the first experimental evidence that a nonhuman animal can follow along a pretend scenario & track imaginary objects. Work w/ Kanzi, the bonobo, at Ape Initiative youtu.be/NUSHcQQz2Ko

Knowing that there are people actively working toward a better and more peaceful world gives me hope. This Friday, you can hear from some folks who have been carefully thinking about ways in which behavioral and neural sciences can contribute to peace building. www.neuropaz.com/en

I'm switching our research methods course from R to @jamovi.bsky.social this semester, and am absolutely thrilled to discover there's a Jamovi version of @djnavarro.net's free textbook. Such an amazjng service to the methods teachers of the world 🙏 www.learnstatswithjamovi.com

Trust in others and institutions predicts subjective well-being and vice versa. This makes me even more attuned to the costs of people and systems that undermine trust. The decay of trust as a public health issue. #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky doi.org/10.1037/bul0...

This remains my best-ever talk, on "double dipping" in data analysis. Applies to every field of science and data processing, researchers are making the mistakes discussed here every day and in every way #stats #DoubleDipping #RegressionToTheMean youtu.be/VN19B-3P6Cc?...

New paper from the IMC lab! I am very excited about this one. For years, I have been arguing that one of the main claims of the so-called "simulation heuristic" is likely not true for episodic counterfactual thinking, namely that the harder it is to mentally simulate it, the less plausible (1/n)

Five years ago.

This! We, Latinos, matter :-(

This paper had a pretty shocking headline result (40% of voxels!), so I dug into it, and I think it is wrong. Essentially: they compare two noisy measures and find that about 40% of voxels have different sign between the two. I think this is just noise!

New journal: Experimental Philosophy

When we see something that's moving, our memories about it end up projected forward in time: We remember it further along than it was. In a new paper in 𝘗𝘴𝘺𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘰𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘚𝘤𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦, out today and led by @dillonplunkett.bsky.social, we demonstrate that this happens even when there is 𝙣𝙤 𝙢𝙤𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙨𝙤𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧.🧵

Amazing work!!!

Philosophers, why does everything you do turn into a “plague of distinctions” descending on innocent people just trying to live their lives?? Amélie Oksenberg Rorty is giving me joy this morning. (From “Explaining Emotions”) #philsky
