3️⃣ That impoliteness is consequential. In a follow-up experiment, we used seller responses from these real-world negotiations & found that incivility discouraged future negotiations, illustrating how demand-side biases can lead to supply-side differences in negotiation propensity

Effective conversations aren’t just ones that leave people feeling connected and happy. Research by Drs. @JuliaMinson and @emyeom finds moments of conflict can lead to growth, understanding, and stronger relationships: at.apa.org/vgo

Gino's case against us has been dismissed. Scientists cannot effectively sue other scientists for exposing fraud/errors in their work. Those who work to correct the scientific record can sleep better tonight. Those who don’t want it corrected, well, I don’t care how they sleep.

Stepping down now, I have been the Data Editor for Management Science for four years and ~1000 replication packages (supported by @MilosFisar, @chrhuber_ and @ozkesali). So here is some look back at trends, mostly in pie charts. 1/17 xitter.cf/bgreiner_tweets/status…
After 4 years and ~1000 replication packages, I am stepping down this month as Code/Data Editor at Management Science. It's about time, but also the role/process has become untenable. Management Science is at a critical turning point here. A longer thread. 1/17

There are 3 types of conversations: practical, emotional, and social conversations. Understanding the differences between them—and how to better participate in each—can improve your relationships. Sketch notes for an ep from the APA podcast featuring @cduhigg & @emyeom 💬
