Important results!

My friend, colleague, and former Dean Rich Lyons is UC Berkeley's new chancellor - can't think of a better choice! The two great Bay Area universities will be led by economists and former b-school deans. Running a university is indeed running a very big business! Congrats Rich!!

Along with Mitchell Chan and Jessie San, I tried replicating Study 2 from Gino, Sharek, & Moore (2011). The original results hold up: people overestimate their control when they have no control, but underestimate control when control is high. osf.io/skz59/

Did you know that in Sweden most people can file their tax return by text message?
Tax prep firms have prevented that from happening here but this new effort is a good first step. If eligible, try it and give feedback! Danny Werfel wants to make this work and you can help.

We're looking for a fulltime lab-manager! This could be an interesting position for those who plan to apply to gradschool in a few years but want a little more experience first.

Amazing and important work by my colleagues Douglas Guilbeault Solene Delecourt!!! The data collection effort behind this paper is insane 🤯
