I'll be reviewing PhD applicants for the Social and Personality area at the University of Arizona. Applicants from any background with a strong interest in cooperation, prosociality, emotion, and/or sociality/well-being should apply. A background in Evolutionary Psych and Spanish fluency is a plus!

Psych hivemind: with OSF moving away from hosting datasets, code & research materials in Projects, where are folks moving these? I have my eye on Zenodo, but would love to hear what you’re using & why—especially re: long-term stability, DOI/versioning, and anonymous sharing for peer review. (1/2)

📶 Hot off the press w @joebayer.bsky.social to ask: what is constant connectivity? Our answer: a well-marinated stew of affordances + ecologies, slaying some demons to differentiate + drive forward prior concepts toward understanding why it's (never) constant 🍲 academic.oup.com/anncom/advan...

🤔People report themselves as less open, extraverted, & neurotic on social media than offline. 🎭But they see typical person as *more* open, extraverted, & neurotic on social media than offline. Link to my paper in-press at European Journal of Personality: osf.io/preprints/ps...

✨New paper out @nature.com ✨ For 8 weeks around the 2024 US election, we randomly assigned 2,000 people to use social media algos we built ourselves. Do engagement-based algorithms amplify intergroup, moral & emotional (IME) content—and does that distort how we see political norms? 🧵🔗 👇

📢 New research with @stephtorrespantoja.bsky.social , Julian Unkel, Lisa Rhee, @nibasaleem.bsky.social, and @joebayer.bsky.social What counts as “social media”? We find major disagreement across platforms and age groups, with implications for how people perceive its effects and role in society.

Excited to see these studies (finally) published in Scientific Reports! 🚨 S1: More social media users perceived themselves as addicted than met clinical addiction criteria. S2: Increasing perceived addiction hurt perceived control over use and increased self-blame for overuse. Thread below... 🧵

This plot shows the number of users in the Study 1 sample that self-described as 'addicted' to Instagram versus those who were 'at risk' of clinical addiction. The ratios for the addiction symptom scale are 9:371 and for the perceived addiction 69: 311, suggesting a much greater proportion of users self-perceive as addicted than are actually addicted to Instagram

Do you teach #rstats? Do your students complain about how lame and old-fashioned dplyr is? Don't worry: I have the solution for you: github.com/hadley/genzp.... genzplyr is dplyr, but bussin fr fr no cap.

New Preprint: "A Simple Future For Media Effects" @lennertcoenen.bsky.social, @yesuncomm.bsky.social, & I critically discuss our field's current emphasis on complexity. Instead, we argue to value description, prioritize regularities, formalize models, and unify theories. osf.io/preprints/os...

A key axiom in media effects research is that effects are nuanced, varied, and indirect. Although this is true ontologically, asking for ever-more ’nuanced’ analyses of media effects is problematic epistemologically as it stands in the way of more insightful, falsifiable, and robust theorizing. For this reason, we advocate a shift in research priorities and propose four guidelines for future research: 1. Value description; 2. Prioritize regularities; 3. Formalize models; 4. Unify theories. A collective effort along these lines will allow for better cumulative theorizing and, in turn, a stronger understanding and explanation of media effects.

People often overestimate how many others share their views—a phenomenon known as the false consensus effect. In a new article in @ispp-pops.bsky.social, @clandwehr.bsky.social, Philipp Harms and I show that this tendency is associated with stronger populist attitudes: doi.org/10.1111/pops....

I found an asymmetry in how people perceive themselves vs others on social media. The findings suggest that misperceptions derived from social media may extend beyond morality/politics toward how we view persons. Presenting data blitz @ Authenticity Precon @spspnews.bsky.social #socialpsych #spsp

New paper out in @ScienceMagazine! In 8 studies (multiple platforms, methods, time periods) we find: misinformation evokes more outrage than trustworthy news, when it does it's shared more + ppl are less likely to read before sharing. w/ @killianmcl1 @Klonick @mollycrockett 🧵👇
