Asian people and Black people can both face dehumanization in the US, but the type differs: Asian = machine, Black = animal osf.io/preprints/ps... psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-... #prejudice #socpsych #polpsych #psyscisky

Do you research the psychology of social oppression? Are you applying new methods to your experimental research? Are you breaking boundaries in mainstream social psychology? If so, apply to our preconference, Critical Perspectives in Psychology at #SPSP25!!!

This is a rare and cool opportunity to advance substantively important research in a positive and supportive intellectual environment. Consider joining me & @neillewisjr.bsky.social at Cornell! See below for detailed info:

Gaza is now a different color from space.

Beyond thrilled to share my newly accepted article at the journal Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy! This is co-(first) authored with my brilliant friend Nicholas Alt at Occidental College. As two Asian American scholars, we were concerned about affirmative action so we ran some studies!!!

The psych department at NU is inviting applications for its Canady Diversity Science Postdoc. Here is a description: tinyurl.com/2cayu3hk We encourage recent and soon-to-be psychology PhDs with an interest in diversifying psychological science to consider applying!

Here are some thoughts on the "islamophobic poster" at the recent @spspnews.bsky.social @spspsc.bsky.social conference. I highlight that this poster incident is a marker of systemic racialization of Muslims Please, read and forward to those who are thinking about what can be done. osf.io/s4mvy

I'm not seeing much mention of this in the bsky SPSP feed so amplifying this for those unaware of what's happening. Hopefully more concrete news from @spspnews.bsky.social in the near future.

This week at SPSP a poster spread flagrantly Islamophobic ideas under the guise of free scientific inquiry. It was offensive, more ideological (hateful) than scientific, and beyond the bounds. To think that just a year ago we were in a full fledged debate about the merit of diversity statements.

I want to note how disappointing it is that SPSP conference continues to fall behind the pace of progress that much of our scholars and research makes in terms of DEI. Lots of fumbling re: islamophobic poster, ombudsman, and prioritizing white comfort overall. It makes for a bittersweet experience.

TESS is running a Young-Investigator Competition! Submit your experiment idea and winners get their study conducted with a nationally representative panel. Open to grad students or those who are no more than 3 yrs post PhD. Deadline is 3/15. For more details, see tessexperiments.org/html/yic2024...

I am sad, angry, and frustrated by the Islamaphobic poster that made it through the poster review process. A moment of celebration and a sense of belonging was quickly snatched away by this reminder of how academia perpetuates inequities.

Please stop by anytime between 7-9pm on Thursday of SPSP for the Asian & Asian Diaspora Reception! We will have desserts and non-alcoholic beverages! Great for post-dinner hang!!

💥Come check out our lab's action-packed line-up at #SPSP2024 this week!!! 💥2 talks, 4 posters, 1 early-career award, and a panel with yours truly about how to get that foundation grant $$$!

Social psych peeps - I made a feed to track all the SPSP posts. Follow it at bsky.app/profile/did:... One warning - it also captures some cat posts with pspspsps or other variations. But, frankly, I think that's exactly what the field deserves for all the ridiculous S and P acronyms.

Social psychology friends: I am updating my list of journals that accept qualitative research in our field - my usual go tos are EJSP, BJSP, Political Psychology, ASAP, Peace and Conflict, JCASP. Am I missing any? Have any journals changed their policies in this regard over the last years? Thanks!

If you’re going to #SPSP2024 and you’re free on Saturday from 1-5pm, come join us to do some group peer reviews of preprints and get a $120 gift card and some timtams (if you don’t know what timtams are, that’s a good enough reason to come!) Please repost!

For Black History Month, check out Dr Phia Salter's research. "Celebratory BHM representations were most commonly found in material from White-Majority schools, and BHM representations highlighting historical racism were most commonly found in Black-Majority schools" doi.org/10.3389/fpsy...
