A huge thank you to my amazing co-authors —
@rcyeung.bsky.social, @juchiyu.bsky.social, Carina Fan, Richard Daker, Ian Lyons, Adam Zeman, Hervé Abdi, and the one and only @brianlevine.bsky.social — and to my institutions @baycrest.bsky.social + @torontomet.bsky.social for supporting this work.
Across three samples, spatial imagery predicted selection into STEM fields across genders.
Non-spatial/object imagery showed a different pattern: men with poor object imagery were more likely to pursue computationally-intensive STEM occupations, a pattern not observed in women.
New paper from my postdoc with
@brianlevine.bsky.social now out in #PersonalityandIndividualDifferences!
We examined how different types of visual imagery relate to #STEM occupations across genders using a dimensional approach to code occupational attributes.

What are the benefits of taking a phonics-inspired approach to early maths? This summer, Tes spoke to @numcog.bsky.social to find out – and to hear how it might work
Really enjoyed writing this article with Nathan Lau!
