Really excited to be able to join such a wonderful team and contribute to this important work!

After many years of anticipation (mainly by me), @drlarisa.bsky.social and I have a paper on the way people understand two mental state terms used in the criminal law -- "knowingly" and "recklessly" -- forthcoming in JEP:Applied. 1/

I am giving a talk called "Children perceive moral identities as more changeable for the better than do adults" on 5/1 at 10:00 in room 208C. Daniel is presenting a poster called "Probing children's social information-seeking" on 5/3 at 11:10 in Exhibit Hall B. Please stop by!

Are you on your way to SRCD? If so, please come visit with @dymoral.bsky.social & me - we'd love to say hi and hear your thoughts on some new work! Our fabulous lab manager James made a pretty poster about our presentations, see below.

🎉 I DID IT! 🎉

I am thrilled to share that I successfully defended my dissertation! 📚✨

This wouldn't have been possible without the support of my mentors, peers, family, and friends. A special thank you to my advisor @drlarisa.bsky.social and committee for their guidance throughout this journey!

Three of us will be speaking at pre-conferences on 2/20: (1) I will be giving a talk entitled "Children's and Adults' Perceptions of Redemption in Intergroup Contexts" at the psych & law pre-conference. (2) Daniel Yonas will be presenting at an unnamed pre-conference (maybe moral psych?); his presentation is entitled "The Role of Group Membership in Judgments of Ambiguous Harms" (3) Christian Mott will be presenting at the moral psych pre-conference; his presentation is entitled "Punishing Probabilistic Harms." Also! Sophie Charles will be presenting a poster during Session C on 2/21 at 12:30. Her poster is entitled "Adults' Moral and Punishment Evaluations of Identity Denial Targeting Bisexual Individuals." Please stop by!

Many SAMC lab members will be at @spspnews.bsky.social next week and we would love to chat with you if you will be there too! Our lab manager James Nesbit made the lovely poster below to help you find us.

Was absolutely delighted to give a talk today in @fierycushman.bsky.social ‘s joint lab meeting! I presented on Black and White adults’ moral evaluations of ambiguous harms! It was a fantastic experience and received plenty of wonderful questions!

1. New year, new paper! Work on redemption - i.e., moral improvement - first-authored by @dymoral.bsky.social now in press at Dev Review. More info in thread, full text here: columbiasamclab.weebly.com/uploads/5/9/....

I can’t wait to experience this myself Dr. Lo!

This paper was so cool to read as an undergrad and re-contextualize how we think about our understanding of prosocial behavior. And just as cool to see so many people committed to replicating the study and figuring out what’s actually at play.

Finally made a #Blackademics starter pack! Let continue to build community here. This is part of #Blacksky so please show your appreciation to the architect, @rudyfraser.com

What an amazing group! Would definitely like to be part of such a community 🙂

Could I please be added? Thank you 🙏🏾

1. Excited to share work in press at Child Development first-authored by Daniel Yonas (@dymoral.bsky.social)! Older kids & adults, but not younger kids, show greater curiosity about why transgressions - vs prosocial acts - occur. Details below, paper here: columbiasamclab.weebly.com/uploads/5/9/...
