I’ve rediscovered several local sayings since I moved back to Nova Scotia, but my all time FAV is, “he didn’t lick that off the grass”, spoken by a member of a dairy farm family. #naturenotnurture #NovaScotia #antigonish #Children

Great thought piece by Clark Barrett in EHB's special issue: Beyond WEIRD, a decade on. Clark points out that 72% of studies in EHB between 2015-20 used "generic samples" with no geographic origin specified. When do we raise the bar? It's been a decade.
