We often talk about the difference between what people say and what they think, but seldom we talk about the difference between what they think and what they feel

Warning signs someone's depression is setting in: They're much more quiet than usual They use the excuse "I'm tired" a lot They've lost their appetite They constantly look at the ground They want to be alone a lot They smile for a moment but go back to a blank expression right after They struggle to keep up/stay engaged in conversation They become more emotionally distant They become apathetic about things they'd ordinarily be engaged in

Your environment drives your habits, and your habits drives your emotions. So don't focus on the emotions nor on the habits, focus on your environment.

Analysis of 666,623 respondents over 17 years (2007–2023) finds the "American = White" effect is getting weaker

Open access: doi.org/10.1038/s415...

#SocialPsyc #Psychology #AcademicSky 🧪
Against the backdrop of increasing ethnic diversity in the U.S., we replicate, extend, and challenge previous examinations of the American = White/Foreign = Asian stereotype in the largest sample to date (N = 666,623 respondents) over 17 years (2007–2023). Six key findings emerged. First, a robust American = White association emerged on implicit (Cohen’s d = 0.50) and explicit (Cohen’s d = 0.51) measures. Second, the strength of this effect varied by respondents’ race/ethnicity with implicit stereotypes strongest among White respondents (Cohen’s d = 0.86) and absent among East Asian respondents (Cohen’s d = 0.02). Third, the strength of implicit stereotypes was modulated by age, religion, and ideology—older, Christian, and conservative respondents displayed stronger implicit American = White associations—but not gender or education. Fourth, respondents living in U.S. metropolitan areas with greater Asian representation or a history of voting for Democratic candidates exhibited weaker implicit American = White associations. Fifth, over the past 17 years, implicit and explicit American = White associations decreased by 41% and 47%, respectively, and 14/14 demographic subgroups changed towards neutrality. Finally, we observed suggestive evidence that implicit stereotype trends towards neutrality were temporarily disrupted during the COVID-19 pandemic for White Americans but not Asian Americans.

Not every battle is worth fighting. The easiest way to properly manage your emotions is to be selective about who and what you allow into your life.

3 main writing rules:
- The first – and practically the only – condition for good style is to have something to say. (Arthur Schopenhauer)

- Show, don't tell.

- Perfection is attained not when there is nothing more to add, but when there is nothing left to take away. (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry)

Here I write about such microconnections for @psychologytoday.com

You're a manager having a problem of slow app:

- System Engineer: "Get a bigger server."
- Developer: "Rewrite the code."
- Finance Guy: "Kick out free users."
- Priest: "Pray for speed."
- UX Designer: "Add a dancing cat."

And yet… it’s still slow. 😄
