Yesterday @jamiereilly.bsky.social gave a great talk at ISTC-CNR. We learned that older adults use more concrete terms, and the greater the age gap, the less people align. Jamie told us about new ways to study conversations, also thanks to new R tools. So exciting and fun! @ballabrome.bsky.social

Interested in ecology and climate change? Younger and older adults intend these concepts differently. For older adults, they are more concrete than for younger ones. Thank you @ileniafalcinelli.bsky.social @chiarafini.bsky.social @claudiamazzuca.bsky.social project age.it @ballabrome.bsky.social

Very proud of the PhD defense of @ileniafalcinelli.bsky.social. Her dissertation focuses on ecological concepts (e.g., pollution), with various tasks, in older and younger adults. This work shows how studies on abstract concepts can help improve pro-environmental behaviors. @ballabrome.bsky.social
