Does “being authentic” mean always sticking to your “true self”? Pop culture suggests this but our identities constantly shift.
Laura Visu-Petra (Babeș-Bolyai Uni) & PhD student Lexi Bulbuc (BBU & Uni of Warwick) explain how identity flexibility can be a gift and curse.

@warwickpsych.bsky.social

Is it Me I’m Looking For? The Dark Side of Flexible Identity

We’re told to just be ourselves, as if identity was something we turn on and off. Yet, we are often challenged to reinvent ourselves. How can we navigate between stability and fluidity of self?

Read @melissa-thalhammer.bsky.social paper bit.ly/3Ki9pTt @dieterwolke.bsky.social is very pleased to be part of showing the heterogenous effects of prematurity on brain development from birth into adulthood. It indicates there is plasticity and early social environment can make a difference.

Heterogeneous, temporally consistent, and plastic brain development after preterm birth - Nature Communications

This study reveals that brain aberrations after preterm birth are highly individual yet shaped by early injury and social environment, influencing long-term cognitive outcomes.

New paper in Language and Cognition! Although interaction can amplify individual biases and learners like simplicity, participants in interaction do not converge on category-based conditioned linguistic systems, instead they favour lexical conditioning despite the increased memory demands.

How do we perceive aging, and can certain beliefs buffer older adults from internalizing stereotypes?

A new post by Prof. Anu Realo in Psychology Today explores the complex relationship between people's views about aging and their effect on well-being:

Old Age Is No Joy? Why Beliefs About Aging Matter

Holding a positive view of your own aging while distancing from negative stereotypes of older people can help support a longer, healthier life.
