Thank you for the platform! I don't like the phrase 'money can't buy x' (for any x), it's just too vague and not true when taking literally. It was great to juxtapose the ideas abt wellbeing @markfabian.bsky.social and I have been developing with those of @lfitouchi.bsky.social and moral psychology.

What is the meaning of life? 🧪 Some will say "There is none!" But the question has niggled people at least since the The Epic of Gilgamesh, written more than 4000 years ago. It seems having a positive impact on others is key to feeling your life has meaning. www.newscientist.com/article/2513...

How to live a meaningful life, according to science
The meaning of life has puzzled philosophers for millennia, but new research suggests it could be as simple as lending a helping hand

In this new paper, we look at some different dimensions on which beliefs vary: - Is the belief deeply important to your identity? - Would you change your mind if you got evidence against it? - Is it best described in terms of credences (“pretty sure”), or is it more yes/no? 1/

Autistic individuals are more prosocial towards strangers and people they barely know
While most people become less generous towards strangers, autistic adults maintain high levels of prosocial behavior regardless of social distance. New research confirms this generosity is intentional, not a byproduct of repetitive responding.

I am also concerned, but I am really wondering to what extent this issue affects platforms with paid participants, such as Prolific (the study was not run there), since they already implement many of the recommended measures to prevent bots (panelist quality/location verification/identity checks)

This is a super important paper, but honestly, I think the opposite. Integrity and authenticity of online-based panels have been in question prior to this risk agents. IMO this forces all providers to up their verification and transparency of their participants.e.g. www.prolific.com/resources/pr...

Je suis assez d'accord sur le fond, mais je me pose toujours une question quand je lis que les pseudosciences prolifèrent de plus en plus. Certes, on peut en voir partout, mais qu'est-ce qui fonde (empiriquement) cette idée, en dehors d'une impression ?
