Spotted the Tottenham bus before the game in East London - wild to bring it on the pitch and park it there for 90 minutes 😂

It's a hilarious sign of continued incompetence that the post from The White House where they wanted to paint Trump as a Jedi for the 4th of May didn't realise that red lightsabers are classically Sith weapons 😂

Completely agree - with the cuts to funding and the embrace of a president who seemingly wants to clamp down on free speech on university campuses, I really hoped The Royal Society would have expelled him.

10) With @alexljohnson.bsky.social , we explore how perceived trust can lead to potential hesitancy for people’s willingness to engage with misinformation inoculation. This highlights a practical challenge for the approach.

9) With Nicole George, we test the impact of using real-world cases in teaching of cognitive psychology. We show that student perception of application and theory increases in a pre- and post-class survey.

8) Data-limited cases are difficult for computational models, as it does not allow for precise management predictions. In this paper with @carrknight.bsky.social , we use rejection sampling for strategic guidance.

7) With Ashleigh Arton, we show that Tragedy of the Commons type situations can emerge organically when fisheries are faced with otherwise reasonable interventions, such as a total allowable catch quota.

6) Using the POSEIDON fisheries model, with @rmbailey.bsky.social we propose a novel behavioural framework for decision-making in natural settings. This introduces an anticipatory rather than reactive model.

5) With David Young and Lee de Wit we show that polarisation can emerge given different assumptions about the dependencies of sources. This shows that polarisation can occur rationally.

4) In an argumentation study with Cassy Teigen and others, we show that arguments labelled as AI-generated are seen as less persuasive than the same arguments from supposedly human sources.

3) With Sayeh Yousefi and others, we test Quine’s Epistemic Principle of Charity. Over two experiments, we find that people broadly update their beliefs and their assumptions about the beliefs of others in line with this principle.

2) With Jeanie So, we explore how trust is built and maintained in leaderless protests movements via the Hong Kong protest as a case study. Alongside social identifiers, we show that protesters are aware of reasoning dependencies.
