How do you know if two people "click?" A short thread on my first paper of grad school out in PNAS! In collaboration with my advisors @ThaliaWheatley and @lukejchang and two fantastic honors students Eli Reynolds and Marie Cone LeBeaumont. 1/ pnas.org/content/119/4/e2116…

Got really tired of seeing Bronfenbrenner's bioecological model illustrated only w/ white boys. So we made a new (prettier) version centering Black girls. Please RT & share in your psych classes! Full article on #attachment & #antiracism is open access: doi.org/10.1080/14616734.202…

Happy that this wonderful collaboration with @eredcay is finally out in the world! Critical examination of what "theory of mind" means (and doesn't mean) is necessary to move the field of social cognition forward.
This paper was 7 years in the making! Performance on one theory of mind task does not predict performance on others. doi.org/10.1016/j.cognition.…
