The existence of Chicago style pizza implies the existence of MLA style pizza

Our paper showing that firms earn abnormal returns when their stocks are purchased by U.S. Senators is now available in the Strategic Management Journal. This is my first publication, so I'm doubly excited! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10…

If you are out of ideas, go for a walk. This paper found walking (whether outdoors or a treadmill) increased key types of creative thinking for over 80% of undergraduates. The reasons are not fully clear, but there seem to be direct effects on the brain. apa.org/pubs/journals/…

Zero draft is a critical part of the academic writing process. But a lot of folks ignore it and run into all sorts of problems including the writer's block. Here's what a zero draft is and why you should write one:

BOG 10.003 will virtually eliminate tenure in the state of Florida, if adopted in its current form. The window to leave a public comment has been extended to Friday, December 9th. Thread🧵

The most important tweet I'll make all year. Please, friends, spread it around Why should you attend The University of Tulsa? Don't listen to me. Listen to the data just released from the US Dept of Ed.

All aircraft on the installation have been evacuated/secured in preparation for #HurricaneIdalia . During the evacuation, the 50th ARS recorded St. Elmo’s fire, a weather phenomenon in which luminous plasma is created in an atmospheric electric field.

The dead horse I will continue to beat: instructors cannot detect AI writing reliably: 1) Detectors don’t work & accuse non-native speakers of cheating👇 2) You can’t ask AI to detect AI writing, it will hallucinate 3) If you “use your gut” you are going to used biased heuristics

There are 2 reasons why the FTC ban on non competes goes in the right direction. First, in labor markets where employment can be terminated at will, the ban rebalances bargaining power btw workers and employers, limiting risks of monopsony power extraction 1/n

Some takeaways: DON’T USE AI DETECTION SOFTWARE; “traditional” writing rubrics already spotlight AI’s generic, unsubstantiated writing; give students opportunities to talk about and revise their writing; teach them how to use AI strategically and effectively.

When a court decides that "boneless" doesn't mean "without bones," it erodes public confidence in the legal system.

🚨Have you ever worried about respondents in your online panels who take many other online surveys and tasks daily? I will present a paper at #APSA2024 measuring the prevalence of these professionals and investigating their effects on the quality of online panels. Quick 🧵

Me to myself after reading the reviewer reports on my article manuscript

The opacity of academic prose arises from the epistemological imperative to operationalize disciplinary jargon, facilitating intra-specialized discourse while obfuscating heterogenous interpretive accessibility and perpetuating a recursive dialectic of erudition and exclusion.

How all author ordering concerns should be settled. "The co-first authorship order was determined via the best of three rounds in Super Smash Bros."

I’m a savvy, modern researcher. I have dozens of windows and hundreds of tabs open at all times, each containing articles I’ll never read. I yearn for Chrome to crash and deliver me from a nightmare of my own creation.

Yeah. Not good. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
