✨ The new ConnectLab website is live! We’re excited to announce the launch of our new site with a fresh look, updated content, and everything you need to explore our projects and services. 👉 Check it out here: connectlab.psicologia.unimib.it
🎓✨ Day 5 The morning opened with the group project presentations, masterfully guided by Ilja Van Beest. The day continued with a session featuring Alessandra Sciutti and Emily Cross, both recipients of the prestigious ERC grants. Our week comes to a close. See you next time
🧠💻 DAY 4 | Designing Interventions for Digital Well-being Today we welcomed Maria Teresa Graffeo, Claudia Marino, Elisa Wegmann, Gianluca Esposito. The day focused on how to understand and address problematic social media use and emerging forms of technological addiction.
Day 3 | @dongning_ren helped us reflect on the importance of framing research questions clearly before even looking at data. Marco Ciapparelli and Davide Marengo explored the promises and limits of using generative AI tools for tasks such as idea generation and item construction.
Day 2 – What makes a robot feel social? Can machines spark empathy, trust—or even discomfort—through looks & movement? Today we explored anthropomorphism in social robotics with brilliant talks from Alessandra Sciutti, Nathan Caruana & Emily S. Cross.
📣 The Summer School has officially started! ☀️🎓 The first day was dedicated to “Connecting and Disconnecting through Digital Technologies”. A special thanks to our speakers: Ilja van Beest, Sarah Lutz, Marco Marinucci, and Francesca Cocchella.
🚨New Paper🚨 Together with Paolo Riva and Luca Pancani, we introduced a new experimental paradigm to study the impact of #Ghosting compared to direct #Rejection over time. Turns out rejection stings, but ghosting haunts! 🧵
On Monday we had the pleasure of hosting a well-attended and thought-provoking seminar by Adam Waytz (Northwestern University) at the Department of Psychology, University of Milano-Bicocca. Many thanks to everyone who attended his talk 'Humans and Machines', in person and online.

#Ghosting has become a popular buzzword, but what exactly is it? 💔👻 In our newly published paper, @JMSchokkenbroek, Luca Pancani, Paolo Riva, and I (@ConnectLab16) offer a theoretical analysis to clarify what ghosting is (and isn’t). Full-text #OA 👉 doi.org/10.1016/j.chb.…
Our lab members @AlessiaTelari, @tere_trave, and Ilenia Gasparini traveled to Denver for @SPSPnews to present some of the work we've done over the past years! Talked about #AI, #technology, and #imprisonment in the context of social connection and social exclusion ❤️

Do you care if a robot is left aside? Apparently yes. In our latest @ConnectLab16 research on @GPIR_SAGE with @PagliaroStefano Manuel Teresi & Chiara Ballone, three preregistered studies show that people experience negative emotions when observing a robot being excluded
