Nice way to start the weekend: just found out that we'll be presenting new work at Psychonomics in Nov. @lajake209's talk will cover data on people's preferences for descriptions of durations. For a preview, check out her #cogsci2020 paper: https://t.co/jgsSaj20Sz
.@lajake209 recently discovered a cool bias. When people read this: Event A went from 1 - 10pm. Event B went from 4 - 5pm. they prefer descs such as "A started before B started" over "A ended after B ended". Hear about these biases at our #cogsci2020 poster today @ 11am P-3-538 2

Psyched that our lab's latest paper (led by @lajake209) is now out in JoCN! It's about how people make systematic mistakes when they reason about durations, as in the sentence: A happened _during_ B. OSF: https://t.co/xnLCs8tirE https://t.co/VKAgk9Nevu
