Wissenschaftsministerin ein massiver fail. Ideologisch, dumm, und in der Sache so falsch wie im Amt unprofessionell. Anstatt sachlich nüchtern die Professorin vor Diffamierungen & gegen 1 Kampagne zu schützen, wirft sie diese erneut dem geifernden Polit-Mob zum Fraß hin. www.zeit.de/politik/deut...

Kurz: Die #Grundwasserneubildung💧 kackt vielerorts ab. 👉 Leider halt wieder sone Nachricht, die kaum Aufmerksamkeit bekommen wird, da es ja in den letzten 2 Wochen *etwas* geregnet 🌧 hat. Und warum auch, geht ja grundsätzlich nur um unsere wichtigste Lebensgrundlage. 🤷‍♂️ #Dürre #Entwässerung

📣 Excited to share our new preprint: "Measuring Perceived Structural Constraints on Choice: The Structural Awareness Scale" (SAS) osf.io/preprints/os... We developed SAS to capture how people perceive 🧱 structural barriers on their choices in areas such as sustainability or healthy eating.

NEW PAPER, JUST OUT! 👀 Insects from the '70s and '80s were already collecting microplastic, decades before the term microplastic even existed. 🤯 A thread on the surprising history of this pollutant and the incredible insect larvae that helped us uncover it. 🐛 Let's dive in! 🧵👇 1/x

Ich habe in letzter Zeit Gespräche mit Mitarbeitenden der Agentur für Arbeit geführt. Sie schienen alle genervt vom Begriff der „Totalverweigerer“, weil es die praktisch nicht gibt. Entweder hat niemand dieser Politiker:innen je mit Mitarbeitenden der Ämter gesprochen. Oder sie sagen die Unwahrheit.

Morning, everyone

Every time I look into one of the standard stats textbooks for psychologists I get so angry I want to write one myself. It would be all talking about data-generating mechanisms, and also lots of meta-talk about common practices, how to make sense of them, where they go wrong, etc.

Is belonging to many social groups always good for your mental health? We tested the “social cure” hypothesis in a sample of >5000 participants in 24 countries. doi.org/10.1177/1948... #academicsky #Psychology #socialpsyc

Schlüttsiel, Biberach - und unzählige Orte mehr. Die Grünen werden angefeindet und bedroht, systematisch, von sehr weit rechts und aus Russland, und häufiger als andere (wir haben neue Zahlen). Wir haben diese Kampagne beschreiben, ihre Folgen und die Versuche der Partei, sich zu wehren.

Erstens, findet doch nun gerade die beste Wissenschaft eben *nicht* im Wettbewerb zwischen Institutionen statt. Engagierte Forschende vernetzen sich weltweit untereinander und arbeiten effektiv zusammen, völlig egal wo sie institutionell angebunden sind. So kenne ich es zumindest. (2/6)

Who knows this paper on political knowledge? - showed that it's wrong to say that people in lower classes have little political knowledge - They do fare worse in commonly used political knowledge questions - But they do know a lot about issues that matter to them I think it was published in AJPS?
