We all saw this coming. How should we move forward?

The US Dept. of Justice is seeking to challenge Equal Employment Opportunity Commission guidelines, court precedents, and civil rights law. While these are currently still in force, this DOJ finding will make it more difficult for workers to bring discrimination cases against employers.

This year's Society for Industrial-Organizational Psychology (SIOP) conference will be held in New Orleans, overlapping with the New Orleans Jazz Festival.

I rarely have commitment issues, but this situation may manifest some.

Fear of AI replacing you at work may have less to do with the labor market than with how AI is portrayed in the media.

Our new preprint provides the first experimental evidence that vicarious exposure to narratives framing AI as in control is what triggers replacement anxiety.

Why do some workers fear AI far more than others, and what does it cost them?

Despite growing interest, the field still lacks a validated, theory-driven framework for workplace AI anxiety. Our ongoing research program is building one across a growing number of studies combining experiments, cross-sectional surveys, and psychometrics, grounded in Fear Acquisition Theory and the Technology Acceptance Model.
