Bill 96 is a language law that passed in 2022, enforcing French as the official language of Québec. In my latest article, I explore the implications of this law and argue that it threatens the survival of Indigenous languages, culture and political structures in Québec. doi.org/10.24908/jcr...

We made an open repository of close relationships measures. Our goal is to catalogue all of the published self-report measures in relationship science. You can help us expand the database by suggesting measures you tend to use in your research, or by uploading your own measures! relascale.com

Engaging with popular ideas about relationships - such as the love languages - could help scientists improve theories of love, communicate research more clearly, and design guidance that better fits people's lives and relationships. Read more in #PSPR: ow.ly/4CCR50Z1NHG

Our work on relationship clarity featured in the Washington Post! www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/202...

If you’re dating, here’s one thing you should keep in mind
People who date with intention may be more satisfied overall and less lonely, even if they don’t find a relationship, an article published last year suggests.

Excited to share new work led by the amazing Dasha Sandra, a PhD student at UofT. We tackled a tricky problem: mental health awareness can reduce stigma, but it can also cause healthy people to falsely self-diagnose. /1 www.cambridge.org/core/journal...
