. @RobinGomila and I wrote a paper for psychologists on how to handle missing experimental data, and it's finally out! I had an amazing experience translating some of the data handling skills I've learned into a tool for others
So thankful for these wonderful collaborators and the helpful reviewers and editors at GPIR.
Our paper “'What’s going on' in Ferguson? Online news frames of protest at the police killing of Michael Brown” is now out at GPIR! This work, led by @triddle42, w/@julia_gb & @leach_cw, examines how news sources oriented to diff. audiences frame protest in different ways. 1/

4-year labor of love: 59 experiments, 34K people, 49 presidential campaign ads. Out today in @ScienceAdvances w/ @aecoppock @seth_j_hill. Ads have effects, but they are routinely small in size. Thanks to @CarnegieCorp, John Geer for supporting this work.

New research finds that U.S. teachers “are people too,” holding almost as much pro-White racial bias as non-teachers. The authors urge more support and training for teachers to mitigate implicit biases. Read more: aera.net/Newsroom/Research-F…

The World Health Organization (WHO) announced that dogs cannot get Covid-19. Dogs can be released from quarantine. I guess you could say that "WHO let the dogs out"

Going into 6-figure debt and committing to a career path that'll allow me to *begin* paying off that debt when I reach age ~35. All to make science that's kept safely behind a huge paywall, inaccessible to anyone it could potentially benefit.
Totally nuts, I know.
