Hugo Münsterberg
@munsterberg.bsky.social
The still kickin' Founding Father of I-O Psychology!
I considered other names for my band:
Hugo and the Statistical Outliers
Hugo and the False Positives
Hugo and the Null Hypotheses
Hugo and the Gas Light Orchestra
Hugo and the Placebos
Hugo and the Unconditioned Stimuli

My band hated all of them for some reason.

You know what that means--time to get cracking on that paper that got accepted!

His last name is "Putsch"? Really? As in Casey "Beer Hall" Putsch?

One does not "vote" for a putsch.

You "make" a putsch happen!

Ya, I thought "eternal rest," yadda yadda yadda.

Like you, Herr @iosyislam.bsky.social, I'm a big proponent of teaching employees to listen more attentively to their managers!

In my day, a "Brooklyn clothesline" meant something much more violent.

Wait--I thought this WAS the post-apocalypse!

I had better start collecting books to stack all around me, then. Is there time to find my second pair of glasses, I wonder? No matter! I'm sure I won't need them...

Aud Wiedersehen, Gil Gerard!

As a fellow once-frozen, inadvertent cryogenic time traveler, I salute you!

On the occasion of my alleged death 109 years ago today, President Woodrow Wilson released this message in what is now recognized as a completely normal Presidential sentiment that should be shared with the Nation and the World, at large.

Reminds me of the cigarette smoke from students floating above the Harvard Union building back in the day.

I look forward to RFK Jr discovering Hans Eysenck's studies that showed personality causes cancer--not smoking!

How I miss my between-courses cigars when dining out...

How It Feels to be Run Over by a Car (1900). Directed by Cecil M. Hepworth, who later directed the classic 1900 sequel, Explosion of a Motor Car.

Make sure you stay for the end of this 60 second classic thriller...if you haven't run from the theater screaming!

From now on, the "Four-Fifths Rule" for spotting disparate impact in hiring will be replaced by the "Five-Second Rule" more commonly used for food that has been dropped on the ground.

Trust me: Royce, Palmer, and James are much scarier.

They couldn't get me to sit for this one. That blank spot in the middle was supposed to be me!

This one still gives me the bumps from the goose!

So much action and drama! Is he being chased? Oh no! Why? Or is he chasing someone? But whom? The constant cliffhanger! Why was there no sequel?

The Father of #FilmTheory must go lie down now.

Guidance on "using #AI in hiring" pulled from the #EEOC website and replaced by guidance on discrimination caused by woke #DEI policies.

Setback or new opportunity for #IOPsych consultants?

Psst! Graduate students, listen to me. You can organize! For real! It's been done!

In my day, we'd have hired a dozen Pinkerton men to beat you into submission.

But professors today are soft!

Fight the power, grad students!
