- Is "unlikely" quietly sabotaging climate communication? We show negative verbal probabilities make evidence and scientific consesus sound weaker than their positive counterparts. New in Nature Climate Change: www.nature.com/articles/s41... led by @mariejuanchich.bsky.social #SciComm
- Our new research shows that explaining the nature of illness and providing point-of-care test results to patients might be just quite useful tools to calibrate their antibiotic expectations (changing threshold but also discernment)... #antibiotic @abc-network.bsky.social @essexuni.bsky.social
- New registered report out in BJHP📣 How to reduce demand for antibiotics? Using Signal Detection Theory, we show that clinician explanations & CRP point-of-care results reduce antibiotic expectations and improve discernment doi.org/10.1111/bjhp... #PsychSciSky @rhulpsychology.bsky.social

- Reposted by Miroslav SirotaAs grant money starts drying up, it's more important than ever not to waste it on paying publishers' open access "article processing fees" when we can host PDFs for free. Tom Morgan and I wrote a paper on this, forthcoming at Science and Public Policy. Accepted draft here: osf.io/preprints/os...
