New paper, expertly led by Matthew Ivory, on whether ChatGPT could pass a psychology degree. The answer was pretty much yes (albeit a low scoring pass). A lot to unpack in the paper but tldr is we really need to rethink how we assess our degrees and what we want students to get out of university.

1987 is probably my favourite year for social psychology -- I can't think of a better one for books on exciting new theory.

As a student interested in discursive and rhetorical social psychology, I often struggled with the analysis. There were few practical guides on how to do it. Now, exactly 3 years later, we have outlined a pragmatic three-step approach to the critical discursive psychological analysis.
