Are you using height-adjustable workdesks?
Recent research has suggested that cognitive functioning might be enhanced when standing up compared to sitting down.
In two works from my master's, we tested these claims to show how different attentional functions are affected by standing posture: (1/n)

News from a different field today👩🔬: To power a greener future, we need better batteries. My sister published her BSc thesis, where she explored how to improve lithium-sulfur batteries - a promising battery type that could outperform conventional ones in cost & capacity🔋Cool work & promising impact!

First paper of my dissertation now out in EJPR with @bnbakker.bsky.social & @gijsschumacher.bsky.social
Can we measure affective polarization in systems with 6, 10, or even more parties without overburdening respondents or compromising validity? We show how.

Congratulations to @linushof.bsky.social from our lab @tum.de for being the runner-up at this year’s #teap2025 poster competition! His research shows that people search adaptively in decisions from experience.

New year, new research: In our latest paper published in JEP:LMC, my co-authors Thorsten Pachur, Wolfgang Gaissmaier and I answer the question: “Is there a description–experience gap in choices between a described and an experienced option?” (psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...)

New from my lab: "Priors for natural image statistics inform confidence in perceptual decisions"
We used a natural image statistics approach to investigate the computations underlying perceptual confidence. 🧵

Exciting news from cbdr-lab.net: Olivia Fischer presented her recent project aimed at better understanding to what extent the risky choices behavioral scientists study reflect the choices people actually make in real life - and if not, to what extent it matters.

We won the IgNobel Prize in Probability for 350,757 coin flips.
František Bartoš and EJ Wagenmakers received the prize yesterday on behalf the 50-author team.
Fair coins tend to land on the same side they started on (probability = 50.8%).
