Excellent summary of the research about the uber popular 'growth mindset' concept: its very popularity made me skeptical, but the evidence supports it as a real effect. It's worth for educators to know the subtleties…
In case you missed it: I published a (freely available) guide to the extremely complicated growth mindset research literature earlier this year aft.org/ae/winter2022-2023/w…

New @AMSWCAS study links maritime piracy trends to climate change. Rising temperatures affect fisheries, influencing whether fishermen engage in piracy, say Bo Jiang @UM_Sociology and Gary LaFree (@glafree) @UMDCriminology.

Eye-opening article on the science and personal experience of chronic pain from @lucy_os

Difficult to treat pain effectively when the provider training is grossly inadequate.
Yes!! The lack of pain ed is SHOCKING. 96% of med schools in the US & Canada have ZERO dedicated compulsory pain education. Similar in other countries. 😓

Let me alone, to dry out my home,
then you can come and start over.
Global warming is a single number for changes in global, annual mean temperature. Climate change captures the effects of that, including increased weather (but not climate) variability. xitter.cf/CColose/status/1611787…

It’s been a mystery why Roman concrete often lasted thousands of years, but ours decays in mere decades.
Turns out they incorporated chemicals in a process that induces self-healing; scientists at MIT just figured this all out - in 2022.
Extraordinary.
