I’m excited to present my work at UGA’s inaugural Franklin College faculty research mixer! Here are references to some of the work I discuss I my talk:
Most people expect some uncertainty in science and generally prefer to learn about uncertainty in science.
Check out the results of our survey: Ratcliff et al., 2023
In experiments, participants usually find the messages that convey uncertainty to be more credible and they trust the sources more.
Here are a few examples: Ratcliff & Wicke 2023 in the context of genetic risk and depression; Ratcliff et al., 2021 in the context of precision medicine; Ratcliff et al., 2018 in the context of cancer research
There’s usually no impact on attitudes or intentions regarding the health behavior.
Here are a few examples: Ratcliff & Wicke 2023; Ratcliff et al., 2021, but more research is needed in this area!
I love to collaborate, especially across disciplines. If you’re interested, please get in touch!
