🚨New PhD position@WURconsumption! Are you interested in connecting basic mechanisms of value-based decision-making to real-world behavior change problems? Join the team of @HarmVeiling, Sanne Raghoebar and me (TU/e). Feel free to chat with me about it wur.nl/nl/vacature/ph…

JOB OPENING - PhD researcher 📢 Are you interested in uncovering psychological mechanisms to enable durable behavior change? Do you like to develop and execute theory-driven controlled psychological experiments? Check our vacancy! @Harm Veling, Chao Zhang Consumption and Healthy Lifestyles

Publication day! The modeling textbook I started five years ago is finally out today. I'm proud of it, and really grateful to everyone who helped make it better. PUP: press.princeton.edu/books/paperbac… AMZN: amazon.com/dp/0691224145?…

A common view in behavioral science is that people cannot introspect directly on the mental processes underlying their choices. Here, in a new preprint, we provide evidence that they can. osf.io/preprints/psya… Work with Ryan Carlson , hedy, and M.J. Crockett (1/8)

Happy to share that my first paper "Affective and Cognitive Reactions to Robot-Initiated Social Control of Health Behaviors" co-authored with my supervisors Chao Zhang Raymond Cuijpers Wijnand IJsselsteijn has been accepted as a full paper presentation at #HRI2024. Stay tuned for more info😆!

Looking for an social/behavioral data scientist to join our department as assistant professor! Highly recommended, we have cookies, a supportive work environment, and a beautiful green campus! academictransfer.com/nl/338182/assi…

Thanks to everyone who listened to my talk this morning😉! If you are interested in how people perceive social robots that aim to influence health behaviors, check out our paper for more details. Would love to hear your thoughts! #HRI2024 The HRI Conference
