“The false ‘hard problem of consciousness’ assumes upfront that there exists a metaphysical gap between mind and body. This contradicts everything we have learned about nature.”

So grateful to see our books on belonging for children, educators & parents now published. These books are special thanks to talented co-authors & one amazing illustrator, but the real magic happens when these stories start conversations on belonging 💕
Fostering a sense of belonging in early childhood is crucial for development & wellbeing 🍎
This set of books provides a toolkit for educators to create immersive play environments that teach children about the importance of feeling included & valued.

YO this is my favorite thing on tech x this week:
1) kid makes leet code cheating tool for big tech interviews
2) uses it on Amazon interview, gets offer
3) YOUTUBES THE WHOLE THING, tells Amazon to f*** off
4) Amazon gets mad and emails Columbia, gives him disciplinary letter
5) TWEETS THE LETTER
@im_roy_lee do you want an internship brother because this is AMAZING
amazon execs r so mad LOLLL maybe stop asking dumb interview questions and people wouldn't build shit like this

Sam Gershman writes beautifully about how theory-free neuroscience prevents the field from reaching its promise. Beautiful and true. Most folks do not test hypotheses. Running a NHST does not a hypothesis make. thetransmitter.org/theoretic…

We are looking for computational scientists with experience using multi-omics data. Neuroscience experience is a plus but not required. All levels welcome to apply. DM me if interested! #VCID #EndDementia

Not every study needs to have a power analysis, but every study needs a sample size justification. I discuss 6 approaches, and 6 ways to think about which effect sizes are of interest in the study you are planning.

Introducing “Sandwich Builder” - a gamified short-term memory measure
📝 Pre-print: osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/zf…
We find that subjects exit SB less fatigued & more motivated than classic memory measures (& show convergent+predictive validity, etc)
Built w/ @GorillaPsyc Game Builder

Burnout happens when there is no progress. Burnout also happens when you have no visibility into how dots will connect in the future. Burnout is about not being able to close the loop after putting a ton of effort and not seeing enough results.

I've made this pretty poster of my books, so far, for an upcoming event. Maybe one looks relevant to you? :)

So grateful to have this opportunity to dive deeper into school belonging. What's truly exciting is that this project is designed to translate findings along the way. I can't wait to share things! Thank you for all the beautiful messages of support and congratulations! ♥️
Congratulations to Associate Professor Kelly-Ann Allen who’s secured a highly prestigious Australian Research Council DECRA fellowship in the 2025 round for her research addressing the decline in school belonging in Australia.
Her project expects to generate new and applied knowledge in the area of school belonging, contributing to both theory and practice. Expected outcomes include actionable insights and approaches for educational practice, derived from stakeholder engagement.
Given that school belonging profoundly influences student wellbeing, engagement, and broader societal factors like employment and further education, this project should provide significant benefits in these areas.
DECRA grants, awarded by the Australian Research Council, are highly competitive and prestigious. They recognise early-career researchers. They signify a notable achievement and provide support for ambitious research objectives.
Congratulations @drkellyallen

Well-deserved honor for a pillar of the belonging community! I am excited about the wonderful work @drkellyallen will be doing in the years to come! 🥳🍾😃
Huge congratulations to our very own brilliant @drkellyallen on being awarded a prestigious and highly competitive #ARC #DECRA fellowship. She is too modest to publicise herself. But this is rare, especially in education research.
BIG claps for Kelly! 🙌🏾✅🎉
