Think of an emotional memory of yours.
Does it involve one or more other people? Chances are yes.
The amazing talk by Sahura Ertugrul at #DGPs2026 showed how perception of emotional and social content are intertwined.

"Alexa turn on the TV" - children copy how their parents interact with artificial intelligence. The talk by my talented PhD student Sahura Ertuğrul at the @dgps-epsy.bsky.social symposium at #DGPs2026 was a wonderful reminder that we as parents are role models for young children when using AI.

Primary school kids stay fair, even if they see someone being ostracised - towards humans as well as towards robots! This highlights how relevant fairness is at school age. Wonderful talk by my talented PhD candidate Niloofar Goharbakhsh at the @dgps-epsy.bsky.social symposium at #DGPs2026

Who can tell if an emotional is fake or real? Find out in our new paper on individual differences in emotion authenticity perceptions- and wonderful international collaboration with Mircea and Fatima!
📢 Excited about our (Louisa Kulke & Fatima Felisberti) new paper in Motivation & Emotion! It echoes a theme from my recent ISRE talk: rigorous methods, precise estimates, and theory-driven predictions are essential if we want cumulative emotion science.

When parents synchronise with their children, this relates positively to children's self regulation in the classroom. However the positive relationship was only visisble in relaxed but not in stressed parents. Great talk by Tose Akinmola-Milone at #SPR2025

Myth busting at #EPSY2025: kids' screen use before bedtime does not affect melatonin levels, the "blue light myth" is busted by Carolin Konrad. There are many screen time recommendations which make strong claims based on very weak evidence - something worth considering!

Are babies aware of their self? Very exciting findings from Margherita Belia. Babies might recognise their voice before they recognise their face in a mirror. If all alternative explanations can be excluded, this will be an amazing new measure! #DUCOG2025
