#psychology #socialpsyc #PsychSciSky New paper in JPSP led by my amazing grad student Shuang Wu (not on Bluesky). We see people with more self-control as more powerful, and are more interested in giving them power. Nice writeup in UCSD Today today.ucsd.edu/story/having...

New preprint with @HayoungAhn, @jschleiderphd.bsky.social, and @leahsom! We find that language becomes both more psychologically distanced and more *abstract* when regulating emotions. Results nicely align with Construal Level Theory and extend understanding of lang-emotion relations! osf.io/a2zv3/

I see our paper is getting buzz! Important takeaway: The semantic space model is more informative than the others; you can't discover what you don't measure. Amusement, cute, wonder, pride--all associated with post sharing. It's not just about anger etc. www.science.org/doi/full/10.... #PsychSciSky
A graph of 10 emotions associated with FB post shares. Note that it's not just negative or high-arousal emotions - it's also positive and low arousal emotions.
