Now and then, it is worth looking into your file drawer to see what hides inside. It's been a while since we worked with Peter on this one, and it's currently a bit underdeveloped, but its time is gonna come. :-)
Not quite sure how to announce this :-) — but after four years since its acceptance, our paper on political identification has finally appeared in print! #socpsych

3️⃣ How does their perception differ between the general public and activists themselves?
4️⃣ How does support for these actions depend on political views?
In three studies, we answer the following questions:
1️⃣ What is the level of support for radical pro-climate actions taken by environmental activists?
2️⃣ How are the different dimensions of the perception of radical pro-environmental behaviours interrelated?

We don’t need advanced features like AI or business intelligence—just a clean interface, solid randomization options, and the ability to connect with research companies. Usuall #PsychSciSky #socialpsyc staff. Do you have any recommendations?
I’m looking for an easy-to-use survey platform to replace Qualtrics. The prices have recently skyrocketed, and it seems we can no longer justify the cost.

It’s not that people doubt biodiversity is declining—it’s that we underestimate how many others already share this concern.
In our new Perspective, we review work on pluralistic ignorance and set out a research agenda to:
Our first preregistered report on climate communication has just been accepted. It will form the first‑author paper for my PhD student, Dominika Jurgiel. The process wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. #SocialPsyc

Let's see how many things may go unnoticed: it is possible to classify these actions using several criteria (Borges, 1942).

OUP has announced the release of a volume on climate obstructionism. The publication is set for September31. The entire volume will be available as OA. Inside is a chapter on climate misinformation led by @stecula.bsky.social and John Cook, with my small contribution.

'the average effectiveness of choice architecture ("nudge") interventions on behaviour is smaller than often reported and there is substantial heterogeneity in their effects.'
Delayism links to lower climate anxiety and higher denial, posing a subtle but rising barrier as outright denial is low in both countries. Study conducted with Taciano Milfont and Michal Glowczewski. #socpsych #socialpsychology #environmentalpsychology

You can find out here, if anyone is interested in how the British and Poles think about the need for immediate climate action. Our study reveals that "climate delayism"—beliefs justifying inaction despite accepting climate change—is prevalent in PL/UK.

Our new preprint on measuring green workplace behaviors has just been published on SocArxiv! The paper is based on three solid studies and quite a painstaking analysis. I'm curious to hear your feedback, as the paper will soon be submitted to its target journal.

We lack knowledge of participants' reactions to our inquiries, and traditional practices like cognitive interviewing have largely been phased out. Consequently, the experience of studying human versus synthetic users yields similar phenomenological outcomes.

Loose thought. The rapid acceptance of LLMs within the psychological community as substitutes for human participants can be attributed partly to the significant reliance on data from external research firms and web surveys.
How do I see the future of psychology? For example, this passage may be a standard one in a few years: We analyzed the synthetic users' data generated by three alternative AI algorithms to check for the robustness of the results.
Can we take the psyche out of psychology?
Loose thought. I wonder who is the equivalent of Feyerabend in statistics?

Seriously though, this is a decent review. It was a pleasure to write it with the next generation of environmental psychologists from NCU, who took over at some point when I couldn't look at a screen anymore.

Statistics play an essential role in an extremely wide range of human reasoning. From theorizing in the physical and social sciences to determining evidential standards in legal contexts, statistical methods are ubiquitous, and thus various questions about their application inevitably arise. As tools for making inferences that go beyond a given set of data, they are inherently a means of reasoning ampliatively, and so it is unsurprising that philosophers interested in the notions of evidence and inductive inference have been concerned to utilize statistical frameworks to further our understanding of these topics. However, the field of statistics has long been the subject of heated philosophical controversy. Given that a central goal for philosophers of science is to help resolve problems about evidence and inference in scientific practice, it is important that they be involved in current debates in statistics and data science. The purpose of this topical collection is to promote such philosophical interaction. We present a cross-section of these subjects, written by scholars from a variety of f ields in order to explore issues in philosophy of statistics from different perspectives. The articles in this collection can be divided into roughly two categories. The f irst group contain articles by Mayo and Hand (2022), Radzvilas et al. (2021), Rubin (2021), and Spanos (2021), and are concerned mainly with foundational issues in philosophy of statistics.
