btw, I'm looking to take on a PhD student in Fall 2024. I'm generally interested in computation, cognition, and development, and particularly interested in intuitive theories (everyday physics and psychology), commonsense reasoning, and the imagination.

Some of my favorite work from our lab is now out, and it was completely spearheaded-from start to finish-by the unstoppable Tracey! This approach opens up so many cool avenues and has a bunch of fun applications too. If you've got 2 minutes, here's a great summary 🧵:

We often blame people for the beliefs they hold. Does this mean we think people can choose their beliefs, like they can choose their actions? We find children and adults generally think we can select our beliefs, but think we are restricted by evidence and morality. Out now!

📣 🎉Excited to announce that I'm recruiting graduate students and a postdoc to launch the Visual Learning Lab UCSD Psychology in Fall 2024! More information at vislearnlab.org—feel free to reach out with questions!

➰new pre-print! ➰ "Ambivalence by Design: A Computational Account of Loopholes" psyarxiv.com/6w38n For those following along, this is a *new* and *different* paper on loopholes than previous ones :) (by Qian, Bridgers, Maya Taliaferro, Parece, and me)

Yale has a unique program in which students can get a Combined PhD in Psychology and Philosophy The admissions process for this program is pretty counterintuitive in certain respects, so I wrote up an informal explainer about how to apply docs.google.com/document/d/1I7…

When you face a decision, you usually have so many options that you can’t possibly consider them all. So how do people determine which options to consider? Our new paper with Joan Ongchoco and Julian Jara-Ettinger sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Just a reminder before the new year of the upcoming deadline (Jan. 15) for a postdoc in my lab! Psychology/philosophy/cogsci PhDs welcome to apply!
