Latest lab pub in @PsychScience spearheaded by twitterless Amrita! How does learning unfold in our highly uncertain social world? Contexts change and there are always dynamic hidden states (people aren't singularly trustworthy, they change over time). 1/x doi.org/10.1177/095679762091…

Just out! @jpheffne first paper explores across 5 studies why we don’t always punish: it can send a negative moral signal (if punishing as a victim) that can influence ones reputation (but this is not the case when punishing as a third party) nature.com/articles/s41598-0…

My first first-author publication with @orielf (my incredible mentor) is out! @FeldmanHallLab We show that punishment is not always preferred to non-punitive alternatives and acts as a conduit for different moral signals depending on the social context nature.com/articles/s41598-0…
