The current mod @Eli hasn't been active since last July, so I have requested to be modded (thx @dessalines).

Edit: I have added rules and a new community image. If you find any news regarding psychology, its fields, or you want to ask/discuss something, please do so :D And if you have any more ideas for this community, please share them here!

Looking at /r/psychology, it seems that restricting the content to only scientific news/papers might stop an inflood of low-quality submissions that are just unscientific at best; but many of the articles over there are often just the results of one/two studies taken at face value.
