@almagro.bsky.social and I are now ready to tell you when and why therapy-speak might be wrong.

New paper accepted!🎉
Is Taylor Swift responsible for how she makes her fans feel?
Yes; the notion of affective power (the ability to influence how others feel) can help identify the responsibilities celebrities have towards their fans.

📢New paper!
Do we shift our views on bioethical issues after reflecting on consequences?
TLDR: Yes, but not as we predicted.
Reflecting on consequences does NOT make views more progressive or unified.
