6/ This also helps explain when we might get #MoralLicensing v #MoralConsitency ➡️ When establishing a new rep to others, we may license ➡️ When on our own, may be more morally consistent

3/ 🌟In a meta-analysis (k = 115, N > 21,000): Moral licensing effect is much stronger when people are observed!! 👀 ➡️Not observed: essentially no effect (Hedge’s g ≈ 0) ➡️Explicitly observed: Med effect (g = 0.51) Bayesian: 9x more evidence for licensing when observed📈

1/ 🌟Paper *just* accepted @ PSPB!🌟 Does moral licensing really exist?? 👀(doing a good thing, then a less good thing) ➡️ Many failed replications. Why? ➡️ Using #metaanalysis, we put the effect to the test—to uncover when & why it happens 🧵👇 @NorthumbriaPsych #SocialPsych

I rarely share my art projects... but here is a pic of my dining room mural in progress. 🍃 Still lots to do, although it is coming along! Feeling very peaceful this morning ☕️ 🌄 😊

Pride tracks how much audiences value actions closely, specifically (not other positive emotions), across industrial and small scale societies! They're also related between societies! Really cool work by @dsznycer #hbes2024

Also, children's norms change over time, as they get older, in direction of the cultural norm ...and Canadians have strong norms of rejecting unfair distributions, even ehn we have the advantage!! 🤣🤣 #hbes2024 @DorsaAmir

Amazing talk on children as agents of cultural change by @DorsaAmir! Key points: - Evolutionary developmental approaches are important for new insights - Children have their own peer cultures, which rapidly change, and contribute to bi-directional transmission to parents

Your brain regulates the drama! Lessons: -N°1 function is to regulate the very very complicated body, not to think, feel, etc.. -N°2 Brain constructs experiences -N°3 Signals become meaningful only in relation to other signals Great talk by Lisa Feldman Barrett #hbes2024

Start of this year's HBES - very excited for it!! #HBES2024

What a superb experience teaching how to apply evolutionary theory to social psychology at the @SASPoutreach summer school this week! The organization team was amazing and students were stellar, I'm very happy to have been a part of it! @KhandisBlake
