Pay attention in stats class. It’s one of the only courses you’ll need in your career.

New preprint online! Is online data collection reliable enough for individual difference designs? 👩🏻‍💻 We think so! Peer review pending so draft subject to change. 🤔 osf.io/preprints/psya…

We’re accepting internship applications for fall interns! 🍁 Please share with students interested in doing psycholinguistics in the Netherlands 👀 mpi.nl/career-educati…

Great initiative and opportunities! 3/6 months paid internships for people whose future education and/or work opportunities are constrained by personal, financial, regional, or societal issues.

My colleague Lotte Sommerer is looking for a postdoc with a background in usage-based Construction Grammar, ideally with a diachronic focus. More details (in German) here: jobs.fau.de/jobs/akademisc… #jobs #linguistics

Germany tried this. It is a disaster. Pushes ppl out of research. The positions they are supposed to transition into don't exist. I can't keep my research team here because of arbitrary contract limits like this. Tragic and demoralizing for all of us. #WissZeitVG #IchbinHanna

Going to write a book, "How to Talk to Your Loved Ones About the Academic Job Market"

Room with a view at #amlap2024 😍 Check out my poster tomorrow (Fri) afternoon!

Hello, I'd like to invite you to do my laundry for me. If you accept, I ask that you do my laundry in the next 7 business days. If you decline, please give a reason, and recommend 2-3 colleagues who can do my laundry instead. No, of course there's no payment, what a crazy idea

For only $143, Elsevier/Springer will send me a PDF of my accepted paper that I can share with 25 people :). Publishers again adding tremendous value. I wouldn't know what to do without this attractive option.
