Ok, ok, I yield... you will also find me on LinkedIn now 😌 To all my moots (as the youngsters say): Feel free to connect.... if I don't find you first! :) www.linkedin.com/in/jan-phili...

💡 How do people in Germany perceive Artificial Intelligence (AI)? In our recent population survey in Germany, we examined attitudes, experiences, and usage intentions regarding AI in work, healthcare, and education. 🔗 Read the full open-access article here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Earlier this year, we developed a new instrument to measure attitudes towards artificial intelligence across three key life domains: work, health, and education - the ATTARI-WHE. 📄 Read the full article here (open access): www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Concluding our team's run at #MediaPsych25, Dr. Sarah Lutz presents her and @chrbuettner.bsky.social's neat study on the immediate effects of unmatching experiences in the online dating context—all while casually chairing her own session 🙌

Next up at #MediaPsych2025, our PhD candidate Jiyeon Yeo is presenting a poster about her highly innovative study on body-positive virtual influencers... feel free to stop by (Poster #5) and learn more!

Continuing our team's presence at #MediaPsych25, PhD candidate Lisa Forner gave her first ever in-presence presentation on the academic stage, talking about her longitudinal research into parasocial contact—well done, Lisa 👏

PhD candidate and MP team member Julian Bornemeier doing a great job presenting our research on AI bias perceptions in the context of ideological attitudes–to a full house at #MediaPsych2025

@amperjay.bsky.social giving yet another phenomenal presentation—the first keynote in our 2025 Sci-Fi Summer School at TU Chemnitz. Way to discuss mental models so both undergraduates and advanced post-docs can take something away from it 🫰🏻

Please join our doctoral student Jiyeon Yeo for her first poster session at #ICA25 🥳 at the Centennial Foyer in Regency 3.

Always chilling on his little chair next to me as I wrote a Master's thesis, a PhD dissertation, and my first grant proposal. Moved with me all over the country as the career required such mobility. And stayed my loyal friend for 15 years, through many personal hardships. I'm so grateful, Gilbi 💔

This is so well-deserved... Congratulations to you, Sarah! 🥳 So excited to witness firsthand how your academic journey continues.

🚨EVENT ALERT🚨 PhD students and postdocs with an interest in futuristic (social scientific) research are cordially invited to the 2025 Summer School "How much science is in science fiction?" at #TUChemnitz (August 28-29) 👩‍🚀 Great keynotes, workshops, & discussions await! Deadline + Event Website ⤵️

I would like to use the current, decision-letter fueled #ICA25 buzz to send my gratitude to the program/division/interest group chairs—who surely invested a lot of their time to handle this enormous review extravaganza. 🙏

Don't get me wrong, I can't wait for an opportunity to meet my international peers and friends again, so that list already has a huge PRO 🫠 #ICA

Really delighted that my team and I got several submissions accepted at #ICA25, but those letters were followed by a moment of contemplation: Spending my birthday in Trumpland honestly wasn't on my bucket list for 2025. Got a pro/con list to fill out... 🤔💭

What do you mean this is not what a regular home office looks like...?!

Really grateful for yet another opportunity to work with you, @amperjay.bsky.social — and very excited for this awesome collection to hit the shelves!

Ever since we found a ripped-off Barbie arm on a beach in Greece, our family has owned the most perfectly proportioned spoon to put herbs and salt on our breakfest eggs.

Based on our 12-item scale to measure attitudes towards AI (ATTARI-12), my colleagues @tgnambs.bsky.social & @markusappel.bsky.social, as well as the team over at the #SOEP have now developed a new short questionnaire to measure domain-specific AI attitudes in healthcare, education, and at work ⤵️

If I have to see MS Word's squiggly red line below my futile attempts to spell ̷f̷i̷c̷t̷i̷c̷i̷o̷u̷s̷ fictitious correctly on the first try, I will seriously just call it a day.

Rain and thunder are my JAM when writing papers—and by now, I've become a true sommelier of nature soundfiles. Soft rain trickling on a tin roof? No problem. Distant thunder, strong wind, heavy drops? I've got just the one. Tropical storm raining down on lush leaves? There you go 🌧⛈️🌿

Here's an idea: How about instead of procrastinating, we all start to prosocial-crastinate...? I mean—delaying urgent task to do good deeds for someone else *does* sound better, doesn't it? 😵‍💫✨

Full house in the lecture hall! 👩🏼‍🏫 Yesterday, @vkarnowski.bsky.social and @jpstein.bsky.social held their inaugural lectures at Chemnitz U of Technology 👏 We would like to thank all guests for coming, from all over Germany and even from abroad. Here are a few impressions from yesterday's lecutures ⬇️

1/3: 🌟 Funding Opportunity for Early Career Researchers in Media Psychology! 🧠💻 Our Media Psychology division is excited to offer €2000 in research grants to junior members. We welcome proposals from doctoral candidates & postdocs in media psychology.

Glad and honored to enter the world of electrical engineering with a piece of commentary for Nature Reviews EE 🪛🤖 Together with the great Karl MacDorman, I discuss new challenges that await at the border of today's 'uncanny valley of mind': doi.org/10.1038/s442...

In 2024, many more discussions about AI will be held—not least regarding public acceptance & user concerns. In our new OA paper, we offer a reliable, economic, and psychologically informed measure to capture people's attitudes towards AI 📃 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Hoping that the social media ecosystem will finally agree on a new Twitter-esque platform that feels safe and fun and useful again—potentially this one: Hi again, academic peers! 👋🏻
