The role of risk, regret, and rejoice in non‐instrumental information seeking
Journal of Behavioral Decision Making, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Standard theories suggest that humans should seek information only when it can help them make better decisions.

Across three experiments, we examined how this preference for non‐instrumental information was related to the

Carrying the Moral Burden of Safe Fieldwork
The Bulletin of the Ecological Society of America, Volume 104, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Fieldwork in ecology and the environmental sciences often leads to negative physical and emotional outcomes for workers. I argue that this is largely due to an abdication of responsibility on the part of their supervisors, and that supervisors are charged with carrying three interlinked moral burdens: first, the duty of promoting safety ...
