omg that Ari's song...

Thought I'd end up w JPSP
But it wasn't a match
Cut it shorter for PsychSci
Now I read it and laugh
Even almost got reviewed
And for JESP, I’m so thankful
Wish I could say, "Thank you" to SPPS
'Cause editor was an angel

Thk u next. Thank u next next...

About our Blog

Why is this blog called Character & Context?

Everything that people think, feel, and do is affected by some combination of their personal characteristics and features of the social context they are in at the time. Character & Context explores the latest insights about human behavior from research in personality and social psychology, the scientific field that studies the causes of everyday behaviors.
