Got a chance to present my first poster (with @CharlieDorison and @JuliaMinson) at the Polarization Workshop @MIT last week: maxspohn.com/IdeologicalCom… Thanks to the organizers @kati_kish @eugen_dimant @DG_Rand and @ylelkes for a wonderful workshop!


So many new ideas sparked by #ISPPAcademy at #ISPP2023 and so many new interesting connections - I had a blast😊

And with this group photo we conclude three days of intense but fun training at the #ISPPAcademy😊 Big thanks to our instructors and Minnie Chappell & Sev Bennett at @PolPsyISPP Central Office and @MarketaOdlova for their hard work that made this a great experience! #ISPP2023

Why do I feel the need to thank #ChatGPT after each response I get?

*Introducing Reputational Rationality Theory* Are cognitive biases always irrational? Excited to share a preprint proposing a theory for when and why observers reward error-prone decision makers. Sometimes, biases can be reputationally rational. psyarxiv.com/q27sj 🧵


Just got back from this wonderful workshop on subjective beliefs at @CEBI_UCPH with lots of new (and newly prioritized) research ideas. Thanks to @FelixChopra, @cp_roth, @Ingar30, @SettSonja, and @JoWohlfart for sharing all your insights!

We are incredibly excited to kick off a three-day Ph.D. course on Subjective Beliefs, Attention, and Economic Behavior @CEBI_UCPH in Copenhagen. We have an amazing group of Ph.D. students from all over the world attending the course! @cp_roth @Ingar30 @SettSonja @JoWohlfart

It is unconscionable that a city of 900,000 people has a downtown that's essentially a parking lot. (Columbus, OH)

1/ The *last* thing we need right now is more untested speculation about how to fix social media. We have *research* that can help us evaluate @elonmusk’s proposals to transform Twitter, and many of these studies might inspire him to throw some cold water on his plans 🧵


New FCA research note on decision points in high-risk investment consumer journeys out 🎉 Many great learnings, e.g. how effective simple FAQ-style information can be and how incredibly difficult it is to test friction in online experiments. Thoughts? fca.org.uk/publication/re…

Very good visualisation of social mobility in different countries. The actual “lands of opportunity” are not always those we expect.

Found someone who ignores sunk costs! $150 per concert ticket, $500 for a suite, but won’t see the concert because it requires a $40 test #BehavioralEconomics
