Deeply grateful to have gotten the chance to do so much of this work in collaboration with YOU, @hayleybrooks.bsky.social!
It’s official! It’s been a journey, but by the confluence of lots of luck, late nights, great collaborators, & an endlessly supportive professional and personal community… I received tenure! I'll be processing this surreal feeling for a long time - but some celebrations are in order for now!
Thrilled to be in a great symposium "Affect Shapes Economic Decision-Making" today with Karolina Lempert, Candace Raio, and Joey Heffner. If you're at #AffectScience2024, come by Salon 9 now!
I think there are topics (incl. risky decision-making, my home turf, but many other kinds of cognition) where we ignored context to the detriment of our understanding.I think there are topics (incl. risky decision-making, my home turf, but many other kinds of cognition) where we ignored context to the detriment of our understanding.
During a debate on how brain decoding can (not?) help us understand the structure of emotion at #AffectScience2024, Phil Kragel argues that if we want to understand the structure of emotion, ignoring context might be helpful. Not sure I agree. Esp. with emotion, context might be *the point*.
At #AffectScience2024@ajaysatpute.bsky.social's conference-opening talk on how our assumptions about the structure of emotions can interfere with our ability to study the structure of the same. The threat of circularity is big.
