🚨THRILLED to share new preprint for a project I have been working on for 4+ years. In this work we do a deep-dive into the internet's most fascinating repository of everyday morality: Reddit's Am I the Asshole? (AITA). 🧵 osf.io/preprints/psya…

New paper led by my wonderful friend and coauthor Aneesh Rai. Top-line insight: larger homogeneous groups are more likely to diversify than smaller ones. Ironically, this means large homogeneous groups are surprisingly rare (and small ones are excessively common).

In our new PNASNews paper, across 21 experiments with 23,000+ participants, we identify a critical distortion that shapes decisions involving tradeoffs: we find that people systematically overweight quantified information in such decisions. Paper: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pn… 🧵

Research from Erika Kirgios, Ike Silver, and Edward Chang suggests that measurable #diversity goals signal to marginalized candidates that they are more likely to be hired, belong, and encounter a genuine commitment to diversity at the organization bit.ly/3D4t3iB
