🤔 Interested in models of social interaction and computational psychiatry? 🤗 If so, Shawn Rhoads and I are seeking a highly motivated and talented postdoc to work on these topics! Please share widely! apply.interfolio.com/165809

Now out in JPSP (open access paper): "Lifestyle Polarization on a College Campus: Do Liberals and Conservatives Behave Differently in Everyday Life?" psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/2026-… w/ Diana Jordan, Sam Gosling, and Gabriella Harari

Why is almost nobody in Washington talking about the horrific humanitarian catastrophe unfolding in Gaza? That's what I am talking about LIVE on the Senate floor. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

Come join us! I have startup funds to hire a 2-year postdoc for Fall 2025 at Rutgers University. I am seeking postdocs who are a high fit for my research priorities. Link to the job and a detailed write-up of what I'm looking for in the🧵below. Please share widely!

What is happening in Gaza will be a permanent stain on the world's collective conscience. History will never forget how our government was complicit in enabling and sustaining this ongoing humanitarian disaster. We must end funding for the Netanyahu war machine.

Conventional wisdom says interdisciplinary research is valuable but harder to get through peer review (need to please diverse reviewers, etc). In new PNASNews paper, Sidney Xiang Daniel Romero and I partnered with IOP Publishing to test this wisdom and add nuance (1/3)

I'll be giving a talk at the 2025 APS Annual Convention in Washington on the power and limits of AI emotional support, including a story from my glory days as a bellboy (now apparently termed "bellhop"). If you're around and would like to meet, let me know. #APS Association for Psychological Science

✨Deadline approaching, June 1st!✨ Apply if you want to investigate brain orchestration in visual (free!) exploration. You will learn a bunch of cool cog neuro techniques, and get to work with a great team of scientists within and beyond the lab. ucl.ac.uk/work-at-ucl/se…

The rise of Dr Jordan B Peterson & similar influencers among men doesn't stem from their advice & guidance. Those are pretty basic. It's the demand that signifies the crisis men are facing, and society's failings. I talk with Richard V. Reeves of American Institute for Boys and Men podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how… 🧵

🔆 I'm hiring! 🔆 There are two open positions: 1. Summer research position (best for master's or graduate student); focus on computational social cognition. 2. Postdoc (currently interviewing!); focus on computational social cognition and AI safety. sites.google.com/corp/site/sydn…

When are LLMs-as-judge reliable? That's a big question for frontier labs and it's a big question for computational social science. Excited to share our findings (led by Aakriti Kumar!) on how to address this question for any subjective task & specifically for empathic comms

New paper in Nature Human Behavior (led by Matan Rubin), where we manipulated the perceived identity of a real-time empathic response to be or AI. We observed a drop in perceived empathy when label was AI, and this effect was mainly driven by emotion. rdcu.be/et9ad
