So proud of the @equalstrength.bsky.social team! 👏🏻

Over two years ago, we started this project and soon decided we did not want to just select names for our experiments but carefully pretest them first. [1/2]
⁉️What do people read into names? ⁉️

✨New publication in Nature’s Scientific Data ✨

When people see an ethnic minority-sounding name, do they infer race, religion, gender, or social background?

🤓First @equalstrength.bsky.social publication 😅

After so many months of fieldwork, it was great to present findings from our @equalstrength.bsky.social's project at the LIVES centre in beautiful Lausanne! Stay tuned for more in the coming months!
After seemingly endless meetings online, meeting in-person is so unbelievably valuable 🤩

Get ready for lots of research from Team Science coming your way 🤝

@distasioval.bsky.social already gave a keynote summarising the state of the art... and there is still so much more to come 👏
