I’m welcoming #ESCAN2021 attendees to see my oral presentation (A-0443). My talk is about how we used the Diffusion Decision Model to disentangle sources of RT slowing effects in moral judgements, to improve our understanding of moral decision caution. ESCAN 2021 Budapest, @ESCAN_EU

Here's my brief MathPsych virtual conference talk presenting our latest research employing the Diffusion Decision Model to disentangle sources of caution in third party moral judgements. Society for Mathematical Psychology #iccmpsyched #mathpsych youtu.be/q0FVMk4NcOQ

Interviewed by Gavin Coote over my morning coffee for ABC ABC Radio National 'The World Today', discussing contact tracing, QR-scanning, and the #COVIDSafe App. Not how I planned to start my day, but 100% a great experience. Thanks, Gavin Coote ABC News abc.net.au/radio/adelaide…

Last weekend Washington Post / Bloomberg published an opinion piece on a recent study that came out of my PhD Thesis. I am flattered, the piece is very well written and quite engaging. However, there are a few minor details that I disagree with. (1/6) washingtonpost.com/business/fairn…

What can moral judgement response times⌛️tell us about the moral judgement process⚙️? Does this process change in dynamic settings, when we expect to learn more info? Are we faster to condemn or praise? Check out our new Cognition paper to find out: authors.elsevier.com/c/1eVD22Hx2piSE

New paper w/ Frank Mollica, Ted Gibson, Language Lab MIT in PNAS! “Even laypeople use legalese” Corpus analysis + experiments suggest lawyers use legalese to sound authoritative, an account we dub the magic spell hypothesis Full paper tedlab.mit.edu/tedlab_website… MIT News news.mit.edu/2024/mit-study… 1/

Gino's case against us has been dismissed. Scientists cannot effectively sue other scientists for exposing fraud/errors in their work. Those who work to correct the scientific record can sleep better tonight. Those who don’t want it corrected, well, I don’t care how they sleep.

🚨 New in Nature+Science!🚨 AI chatbots can shift voter attitudes on candidates & policies, often by 10+pp 🔹Exps in US Canada Poland & UK 🔹More “facts”→more persuasion (not psych tricks) 🔹Increasing persuasiveness reduces "fact" accuracy 🔹Right-leaning bots=more inaccurate
