Is "unlikely" quietly sabotaging climate communication? We show negative verbal probabilities make evidence and scientific consesus sound weaker than their positive counterparts. New in Nature Climate Change: www.nature.com/articles/s41... led by @mariejuanchich.bsky.social #SciComm
Our new research shows that explaining the nature of illness and providing point-of-care test results to patients might be just quite useful tools to calibrate their antibiotic expectations (changing threshold but also discernment)... #antibiotic @abc-network.bsky.social @essexuni.bsky.social
We are very fortunate to have received generous funding from @leverhulme.ac.uk to investigate the psychology of antibiotic-related judgements.

I had an interesting 2nd day at #ICBM2025 in Vienna today. In our session, I presented our work on communicating about #AMR and pudent antibiotic use when new antibiotics are developed.

Effective communication of uncertainty is vital for public accurate understanding of climate science. Here the authors find that projections using positive probability terms (for example, a small prob...
Fantastic to see @debbamber.bsky.social present ethnographic data on behavioural and social factors impacting blood culture sampling at the annual ABC Workshop. Great work as part of our NIHR-funded iSAMPLE project!
What do #ABCNetwork psychologists, sociologists, anthropologists, data scientists, behavioural economists, doctors and health communicators have in common?
They're all leveraging #behaviouralsci...

New registered report out in BJHP📣
How to reduce demand for antibiotics?
Using Signal Detection Theory, we show that clinician explanations & CRP point-of-care results reduce antibiotic expectations and improve discernment

Objectives Patients' expectations for antibiotics are among the strongest predictors of clinicians' decisions to overprescribe antibiotics. In this registered report, we used a signal detection theo...
I presented our latest preprint validating interventions to mitigate #AntibioticResistance by reducing the pressure that patients place on clinicians to prescribe unnecessary #antibiotics — slides and link to preprint below:

How can #BehSci combat #antimicrobialResistance?
Many patients expect needless #antibiotics (doi.org/10.3201/eid2...), which #nudges clinicians to prescribe 'em (pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih....).
So we validated nudges to improve patient expectations (N ≅ 1k): osf.io/preprints/psy...
