Cover for a kid's book Even Steven
I try to keep things even-steven in terms of at least 3x reviews for every paper my group submits. With a slew of recent submissions 🎉, I'm in debt.
Editors: know I'm excited to review papers in #affectivescience *especially* when they lean quantitative (behavioral & neural models, ML, etc).
A true legend has left us. Paul Ekman’s impact on #affectivescience cannot be overstated. I was so lucky to have met him several times and he was always so supportive, even when I flunked my talk as a first year PhD student. #restinpeace
Bee positive! 🐝 A new study found evidence for positive affective contagion in bumblebees, this is an exciting direction for studying affect and emotion beyond vertebrates 🧪 #CompCogPapers #AffectiveScience #ComparativeCognition #BumbleBee #SocialBehavior #AnimalBehavior #Invertebrate #Insect
Elevated systemic inflammation (CRP) is one pathway through which heightened vigilance may contribute to CVD risk for African Americans adults.

Good news about aging from a daily stress perspective from Dr. Dave Almeida!
He highlighted that we experience fewer stressors AND have less affective reactivity to daily stressors as we age. #psychscisky #affectivescience #devpsych #scicomm

Heard of the “anhedonia paradox” in schizophrenia?
It refers to the puzzling phenomenon where individuals report a normal capacity to feel pleasure—yet show reduced motivation to pursue pleasurable activities🔗Link doi.org/10.1016/j.sc...

Their findings support contemporary theoretical perspectives on hypothesized mechanisms linking stress and health by identifying behavioral vigilance as an ecologically valid behavioral path linking stress to cardiovascular risk in daily life. #healthpsych #affectivescience #psychscisky
🗣️ Please share this call widely to support early career opportunities for folks in biobehavioral medicine, health psychology, or related disciplines! The ECEB is a great way to gain experience that is often not emphasized in grad or postdoctoral training. #healthpsych #affectivescience #psychscisky

Loved getting this crash course reading list for how bodily contexts can influence psychological processes from Dr. Keely Muscatell at #SBSM2025Seattle! Papers are linked in thread below. #psychscisky #affectivescience #healthpsych #devpsych
How does the way we learn, connect, and explore relationships change in adolescence? #scicomm #devpsych #affectivescience
Dr. Dahl discussed the importance of early adolescence and how digital technology interacts with this developmental period in the most recent episode of the Stress Puzzle:
Considering everything that's going on, this seems likely a timely announcement:
Our primer on emotion regulation is out now! 🤩
We break down what emotion regulation is, why it matters, and how to assess & improve it. 🤓

They say AI can’t collaborate. Luminara Vox, said, ‘Hold my code.’
Now, we’re rewriting the future.
Meet Luminara Vox: together, we co-created TREMEC, a framework showing how AI can amplify creativity, emotional resonance, & collaboration. 1/2
