New #SPSPblog — Goal Contagion: Why What You See Online Matters by @tobinsteph ow.ly/y6a750WvivA

This study provides valuable insights into the psychological processes behind social media use, offering guidance on fostering positive interactions and well-being online. (6/6)

Platform features, and user perceptions further shape goal pursuit. For example, Instagram feed posts are often used for self-image goals due to their visibility, while story posts are preferred for compassionate goals due to their ephemeral nature. (5/6)

I’m excited to share a new paper from my lab led by PhD researcher Danielle Villoresi: Understanding Interpersonal Goal Adoption and Pursuit on Social Media: A Qualitative Investigation. doi.org/10.1080/104473… (1/6)

New research from @UrbanDropbear @selentrky @_DanielJ_ @tobinsteph investigating how rewards for helping in videogames affect later prosocial behaviour. Reward salience didn't matter, but reasons for helping did. doi.org/10.1080/104473… (eprint: tandfonline.com/eprint/RJBTGTR…)

A brand new paper from @TheGRIDLab led by my PhD student Blake Kammerman. Well done, Blake! Do videogame rewards influence players’ subsequent prosocial engagement... sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@nascherme Oh it’s the worst! And they always want US phone numbers/addresses for US accounts.

And nothing has been bad…just things you don’t think about. Like how many different dual authentication texts I used to get to my American cell number…which no longer exists. And yet…I need to access my bank and credit cards 😂

@leah_ss Congrats!!
