In one of his books, the orientalist Fareed Zakaria – I was once his reader – writes about the supremacy of western (diplomatic) fashion: suits & neck ties – and how even Arabs and Indians have had to abandon their traditional wear in diplomatic spaces. But how do we love the Iranian diplomat in high-neck buttoned shirt, and their Jesus-like beards. Or the capacious garments ayatollah’s wear. They aren't just mature and re-assuring and mature, but also more elegant than their neck-tied beardless adversaries! It is true that Iranians embrace and embody their maturity while their nemeses are obsessed with youthfulness. Recall Robert Bly’s The Sibling Society – about the child adults of western societies.

🚨 New paper in Personality and Individual Differences! We introduce the Words Can Harm Scale (WCHS): a 10-item measure of the belief that speech can cause lasting psychological harm. Who believes that words can harm, and what does this belief predict?🧵 ⬇️

Your cold emails can be the golden ticket to your dream PhD lab. Here’s how: Most applicants treat cold emails like polite introductions. That’s a mistake. A PI isn’t looking for politeness. They are scanning for signal. Can this person think, contribute, and reduce my uncertainty? Here’s a research-oriented, high-leverage approach: 1. Start with a paper, not a profile Don’t begin with “I’m interested in your work.” Begin with a specific claim from one of their recent papers. Identify a gap, assumption, or unexplored extension. 2. Write a 3 to 4 sentence micro-proposal Structure it like this: Observation: What they did Tension: What remains unclear or limited Idea: Your proposed extension Method hint: How you would approach it This signals you are already thinking like a researcher, not an applicant. 3. Attach proof of execution, not just potential Link 1 to 2 artifacts only: A GitHub repo A preprint A tight 2-page research note Each should directly relate to the idea you pitched. 4. Use the adjacent expertise angle Labs do not just need clones. Position yourself as someone who brings a method or perspective they do not currently have but clearly need. 5. Ask a low-friction question Instead of “Are you accepting students?” ask: “Would this direction align with your current priorities, or am I missing a key constraint?” This invites engagement, not rejection. 6. Timing is strategic, not random Email right after: A new paper release A conference talk A grant announcement You are entering when attention is already on new ideas. 7. Subject line equals hypothesis, not a request. Good: “Extending your X paper: idea on Y limitation” 8. Keep it under 350-400 words Constraint forces clarity. Clarity signals intelligence. DM me “cold-email” if you also want to create highly magnetic cold-emails that turn into interview offers.

This past weekend, I attended @APLS41 in Reno, Nevada and presented a poster on the co-occurrence of true crime consumption & victim-blaming attitudes. 🧪⚖️

@ShakiXela But I’m appreciating him as he appears in the picture alone. He didn’t say the wife is in office at 5a.m. Did I miss something?

I have a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering. I am 28. I currently work as a security guard in Qatar. Every morning I put on my uniform and think about the version of me that graduated thinking the world was waiting. Nobody tells you that sometimes the world is not waiting. You just have to keep showing up anyway.

People who laugh at their mistakes are judged as warmer and more authentic than people who express embarrassment. Maybe differs across cultures? 🧐 psycnet.apa.org/record/2027-25…

Enjoyed presenting my work on how counterfactual thinking relates to belief in conspiracy theories at #SPSP2026 in Chicago. I was delighted to meet scholars I admire, including Dr. Kurt Gray and the legendary Dr. Tom Gilovich. Already looking forward to #SPSP2027 in Philadelphia!
