A fellow member just asked me about abbreviations used here on PsychCentral. I only know a few that are used here in the forums. I rarely go to chat, however, I know there are a ton of them used there. Does anybody have a list of the most common abbreviations? I don't need to know absolutely every one of them because that would be too overwhelming. Maybe just the most popular/common ones that are consistently used in chat. Can anybody help me out?
