If being social is so good for us, why do we often choose to be unsocial?
@ChicagoBooth’s Nicholas Epley, in a recent opinion piece for @WSJ, points out that many of us are too pessimistic about how others will respond when we reach out.

This is where use of AI writing in published academic papers has increased the most and the least, according to a new study. They tracked the prevalence of words that AI tends to use more than humans, like "juncture" and "delves."

It's neat to see the words. Some are formal/fancy (like "exacerbate" and "situates"), but others are simpler (like "offers" and "adjusts"). I presume "paving" is for "paving the way," not cement! 😆

I had a great time at APS! My theme was how we sometimes say one thing and the listener hears something difference, like how “estoy embarazada” sounds like “embarrassed” to Americans but means “pregnant” to Spanish speakers. 🇪🇸 @PsychScience #APSBarcelona26

I enjoyed getting the chance to talk about why people in collectivistic cultures agree LESS with survey items about identifying with relationships. Thanks to the hardworking people at @PsychScience for putting together the conference! 👏 #APSBarcelona26

What personality do people see in brands? In Spain, people see passion in some brands. In Japan, people see peacefulness, but not in the U.S. But Americans see ruggedness. 🏔️

Kunalan Manokara finds that people expect lower social class people to express other-oriented emotions (like gratitude) and higher social class people to express more self-oriented emotions (like pride).

Feelings of gratitude are more tightly linked to wellbeing for Latino Americans and Anglo Americans than for Asian Americans. Why?

Gratitude is less tightly linked to people’s wellbeing in collectivistic cultures, such as India, Kenya, and Egypt. 🇪🇬 #APSBarcelona26 @Rui_Cam
