New preprint. Feedback welcome! Example yesterday, in the wild. Me: "If I do a nice thing for my friend, we both expect they will later do a nice thing for me, but if I do a nice thing for you, then we both expect that I will keep doing that nice thing for you. Why?" Reply: "Cuz you're my Mum!"

New preprint! osf.io/782ta@jessicas.bsky.social@rebeccasaxe.bsky.social. We (and others) had previously found that kids do not expect other kids to favor family over friends when it comes to sharing items like candy, toys. But what about parents sharing with their children?

I’m excited to post a “failed” scientific study. We formulated and tested a hypothesis that I really liked. The hypothesis was wrong. osf.io/preprints/os...@jessicas.bsky.social@ashleyjthomas.bsky.social

Also fun when claims are confirmed with new methods 😀

So fun to see our data be used in so many ways
