On Saturday, I presented Catalina's research on self-affirmation & Facebook to alumni at the Communication Department open house and I think it went really well! A good number of people showed up and I had a great time talking with everyone :)

I have been working on the list of deception books for Jeff, and now need to go through the books to try to get a sense of different categories they might fall into. Part of the book proposal for Jeff's book is a "Primary Positioning" section where you lay out the other types of similar books already on the market and where the proposed book falls in comparison. So, now that I have a decent-sized collection of deception books sitting in the lab, I can start to group the books into different categories (academic, popular, etc.).

I still need to finish up coding for Sally, but we are still waiting on some of the translations. Some of the Spanish translations came in, but they weren't very good and seemed as if someone plugged the status update into a junky online translator and copied and pasted the results into the google doc...

So this week, I am hoping to finish up the coding (if we get translations), work on the books, and whatever else comes up :)
