This case … squarely presents the issue whether non-citizens lawfully present here in United States actually have the same free speech rights as the rest of us.”
“The Court answers this Constitutional question unequivocally ‘yes, they do’.

The 6th edition of The Handbook of Social Psychology is out today—and it's open access for the first time! I’m honored to have contributed to this seminal resource that’s shaped our field since 1954! Read my chapter with Tory Ash & Trish Devine here: openpublishing.princeton.edu/read/prejudi...
Academic friends, if your NSF grants have been terminated by the administration, FABBS is hosting a webinar Friday about appealing the decisions. It's important that as many people appeal as possible to show we're not accepting this targeting of science. Link to the webinar registration is below.
If you’re looking for a postdoc, Benny is awesome!
What an exciting symposium! And for anyone that remembers SRCD2023, this is the promised update to my talk from two years ago

Excited to see everyone at #SRCD2025! Come check out our symposium on children's books as a tool for parent-child ethnic-racial socialization on Friday at 11:30AM (Room 101E).
Statement from SRCD President Vonnie C. McLoyd on SRCD Member Rümeysa Öztürk’s Detainment by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) The United States (U.S.) has proudly built an international reputation for upholding fundamental freedoms, including speech, press, and religion—principles that are not only protected by the U.S. Constitution but are also essential to a strong and thriving democracy. Academic freedom, derived from these core liberties, is a fundamental pillar of higher education in the U.S. The Society for Research in Child Development (SRCD) is deeply concerned when these principles are violated, as in the recent detention of SRCD member Rümeysa Öztürk, a Fulbright scholar and doctoral student at Tufts University. Öztürk held an F-1 student visa, which allows international students to pursue education in the U.S. Öztürk, like many members of SRCD and other scientific societies, legally migrated to the U.S. with the intention of experiencing the freedom to explore, express, and contribute to the scientific community. As a doctoral student in child and human development, Öztürk is one of many emerging scholars poised to make crucial contributions to research, ultimately helping to ensure that children and families thrive.1 Research consistently demonstrates the significant contributions of international students to the U.S. economy and the advancement of the scientific enterprise.2,3 SRCD stands with science and the scientific workforce, ensuring that our members have the freedom and opportunity to engage with their peers, challenge prevailing ideas, and contribute to the advancement of knowledge. This is the engine of the research enterprise—the freedom and opportunity to conduct excellent science and be a force of change for good. An important part of rigorous science is the exchange of ideas across national borders. Actions that threaten this exchange can ultimately disrupt international research collaborations that are essential to expand…
Thank you @srcdorg.bsky.social for issuing this statement concerning Rumeysa Ozturk from Tufts University. I am hoping that other scholarly societies will provide statements. To read the statement in whole: contentsharing.net/actions/emai...

I was just going to test my in-class activity for tomorrow and found that this was gone! Glad I looked at Bluesky (read: procrastinated) rather than prepping a new activity. Thanks so much for saving this resource!
AERA has just learned that all restricted-use NCES data licenses will be cancelled, possibly as early as March 20. We urgently request that all AERA members and others in the research community with restricted-use licenses take these two actions: www.aera.net/Research-Pol...
I'm going to be teaching Intro Psych for the first time this fall semester. Would anyone be willing to share syllabi, activities, slides, anything else? I would also love to teach this using only open-access materials, so I'm especially interested in open-access courses!
I’m thrilled to share that I will be moving to Bowdoin College where I will continue as an Assist. Prof. of Psychology (starting Fall 2025)! I'm so excited to continue my teaching and research in a SLAC environment with fantastic students and colleagues, and to move to the beautiful state of Maine!
I am looking forward to presenting about picture books as tools for parent-child ethnic-racial socialization at #SRCR2025 alongside Grace Reid (presenting her work with @ryanlei.bsky.social), @katharinescott.bsky.social, and Christina Rucinski! #devpsych #devsci #psychscisky
I used to run a summer internship for expanding psychology... if you don't remember here it is: som.yale.edu/news/2018/09...
The news is that we're back up and running in partnership with the Summer Research Opportunities Program (SROP) at Northwestern: www.summerpsych.com
Applications are open!
I’m considering integrating a class-run experiment in my stereotyping/prejudice grad class next semester.
Has anyone done something similar and would be willing to share their assignments/syllabus?
Underrepresented minority faculty in the USA face a double standard in promotion & tenure decisions, with more negative votes, lower chance of receiving unanimous votes and harsher evaluation of scholarly productivity. URM women experience largest double standards. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Overparenting is on the rise and hurts children’s motivation starting in early childhood. How can we help parents step back? Our new paper in Child Dev shows that pointing out learning opportunities reduces overparenting.

Excited to share a new preprint (accepted for publication in Group Processes and Intergroup Relations)! In prior work, we've found that thinking about God increase cross-religious prosociality. Here we ask: But what about when intergroup conflict is salient? osf.io/preprints/ps...

Thanks to @katharinescott.bsky.social for visiting us our brown bag! Such important work designing and testing interventions with parents to get them to talk about race with their kids! #psychscisky
Reading Whistling Vivaldi in one of my classes right now. Overheard in small group discussions: "Vivaldi is one of the Beatles, right?" "Yea, I think so."
2022 fit! + Doc Mary Janes!
