What happens when someone screams "Urgent, Hurry Up!!!" at you while you're trying to perform a task requiring fine motor control?? We borrowed the integrative framework of stress, visual attention, and motor performance to answer this question. Check out the updated preprint (v3).

I recorded a step-by-step tutorial of programming experiments in PsychoPy for undergrad thesis students in my lab. Sharing it here for anyone new to programming in psychology, or those transitioning to PsychoPy from other software. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMJX...

Why does time pressure affect motor performance? ⏰ We* identified distress as a mechanism in two studies of US adults. 😩 Preprint linked below 👇 Includes formal tests of replicability and link to OSF project with open data, code, and materials.

🧵How *moral* are the moral foundations?

We asked this question in my (now published!) first, first-author paper: "Values in Context: The (Dis)connections Between Moral Foundations and Moral Conviction" in PSPB!

Great work led by Paul Plonski (@paulplonski.bsky.social). We’ve been thinking about how emotion and emotion-regulatory responses to climate change information might relate to beliefs about and support for climate change solutions.

To correlogram, try ggstatsplot package for #rstats. Great customizable options and returns a #ggplot object.

Paul Plonski @paulplonski.bsky.social is now on Bluesky. He studies emotion and emotion-regulatory responses to climate change information. He’s on the market for a job (PhD expected in 2024)!
