Even psychologists get amazed when non-human animals can do things that are essential to survival (and thus NOT surprising!), like categorizing stimuli.

Our error? Humans truly overestimate our uniqueness in animal kingdom.

Toying around with a new academic website. I've been prompted to say "I'm a cognitive psychologist, linguist, etc". Decided to just write "interdisciplinary scientist"

Leaning into interdisciplinarity as a benefit 🤞🏻

I got it in my hands!
It's so absurd to see the whole book when I've only interacted with single digital chapters for 2,5 years!
Cool experience with awesome co-editors and co-authors.
I guess now I have something that says Music Psychology with my name on it 😁

Hmm I wonder if some political and financial events caused this 🤔

Hmm I wonder
A map with EU Members States showing how attached EU citizens feel to the #EuropeanUnion.

🇱🇺 Luxembourg tops the chart with 82% feeling attached to the EU

🇬🇷 Greece is the least attached to the EU with 37% of its citizens feeling attached to the EU

If #preregistrations were obligatory for all publications, some academics would not even have a #phd

I wonder about what people *write* they did and what they *actually* did, and how well some people don't feel obligated for these two to be the same.
Tired of lessons to avoid.

Instead of overthinking academic bullying, I should be thrilled (and exhausted and relieved) for the publication of the first Music Psychology edited volume in **Greek**, making #musiccognition accessible for Greek undergrad students.

After a terrible morning of academic bullying, I'm so happy I get to randomly listen to traditional mourning songs from Epirus Greece to get my students discuss the blurry boundaries between language and music.

Examples from other cultures welcome!

The Intervention Consensus for Language Disorders (TICLD) group are running a short survey on resources used in the teaching of Rx for children with #DevLangDis in SLP programs, and taxonomies used to describe those interventions. #SLPeeps
As part of the TICLD programme of research we aim to develop a taxonomy to precisely and comprehensively specify the active ingredients of oral language SLT interventions for children with or at risk for (D)LD.
