As an academic, I'm often asked, "How does Psychology apply to game design?" DigiPen published a nice feature on some of my teaching perspectives and recent research on the topic. Thanks for the support, everyone! digipen.edu/showcase/news

Two messages just arrived from people on opposite sides of the planet saying how much they enjoyed my recent book chapter on changing gender representations in video games. Thanks again to my terrific co-authors, publisher, and everyone reading what we've put out there. 📚🎮

Check it out! My research study, "It Does Matter If You Win or Lose and How You Play the (Video) Game" was just published in Games & Culture. This is a small exploratory study but part of a larger tapestry that examines bias in VVG research. digipen.edu/showcase/news/…

Thanks, GDC! This has been a great series of talks to present, and I've met so many amazing people. Psychological science is always on the move! Check out part 1 of this series because I really need to know what we think about chocolate chip cookies paired with orange juice?
