Brilliant day hosting and chairing the 2nd Experimental Analysis of Behaviour Conference covering a wide range of behavioural psychology research on Mild Cognitive Impairment, Climate Change & Sustainability, Multiple Sclerosis, Music, Perspective-Taking, Moral Reasoning, Racial Bias, Cognition

Would recommend Alex Edmans' book 'May contain lies: How stories, statistics and studies exploit our biases - and what we can do about it'. Very enjoyable read and the 'Ladder of Misinference' is a very useful framework for psychology researchers, supervisors, and reviewers.

Just three days left to the 2nd Experimental Analysis of Behaviour Conference! Looking forward to hosting talks by great behavioural psychologists from around the world!

Excited to host the 2nd Experimental Analysis of Behaviour Conference on Friday 21st February! @richiemay.bsky.social @jamiecummins.bsky.social

Here's a short article on what we found, and some advice on how to battle the bots! #psychSciSky #cogsci www.bps.org.uk/psychologist...
