    Was wondering this too. Why does it seem that all the optimistic stuff in psychology fails? http://nymag.com/scienceofus/2016/08/the-replication-crisis-might-be-fueled-by-inspiration.html … by @jessesingal

        also thinking of these "self affirmation" studies that didn't replicate http://psycnet.apa.org/?&fa=main.doiLanding&doi=10.1037/edu0000141 …

        I predict a negative correlation btw counterintuitive & replication success (mediated by weaker methods in original)

        and perhaps the most surprising results are those that propose simple, easy solutions with long term effects.

        Was thinking (speculating) that psych that can be turned into "life hacks" is just more commercial. Can sell books...

        that and scientists do (I think altruistically) want to help people live better. And maybe there's a bias there.

        I do think we're an optimistic & prosocial bunch. Combine w/ confirmation & publication bias => new meaning to 'false positive'

        huh, I don't share the intuition that depletion, grit, facial feedback, social priming = a rosy view of human nature

        they're all topics that wind up in a particular brand of pop psychology book. Thinking of "Presence" as an example

        maybe a little less on social priming. (but even that has a "life hacker" quality to it)

        Is optimistic slant more related to replicability or to marketing, appeal to popular press?
