New preprint www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... How does the brain separate "how long was that?" from "was it longer than expected?" We designed a task in which physical duration and categorical judgment vary independently, and used EEG to separate these signals. #neuroskyence #psychscisky 1/8

🥇 The €100K Institutional Award goes to the Brazilian Reproducibility Initiative - a nationwide effort to evaluate lab biology research and the largest coordinated replication effort in the field worldwide, catalyzing lasting improvements across Brazil's research ecosystem. Congratulations!

My first post-doctoral paper is out! Grateful to have worked with @andrecravo.bsky.social and the amazing team at UFABC on this.

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

FAPESP recently announced two new calls to attract international researchers to São Paulo. Both opportunities include grant funding and scholarships, and could be interesting depending on career stage and plans. #neuroskyence #AcademicSky Here is a quick summary of each:

Thanks to everybody who chimed in! I arrived at the conclusion that (1) there's a lot of interesting stuff about interactions and (2) the figure I was looking for does not exist. So, I made it myself! Here's a simple illustration of how to control for confounding in interactions:>

Honey, we fixed Signal Detection Theory (SDT)! In this preprint, Constantin Meyer-Grant, David Kellen, Sam Harding, and I critically evaluate the (unequal-variance) Gaussian SDT model in recognition memory and pursue the Gumbel-min model as a principled alternative: doi.org/10.31234/osf... 🧵

🔔 Action needed to save #Psychtoolbox New for PTB in 2025 is native support for 🍎 Apple Silicon and a new licence funding model. Importantly, PTB will remain 👐 open source. If you want to see PTB continue into the future, please support us by buying a licence at www.psychtoolbox.net

Not sure who made this but it made me lol

I found this to be an informative and provocative read - what happened to cognitive science? Authors argue, based on bibliometric and scientometric analysis, that cognitive science as a discipline is basically dead. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This list looks really handy for teaching and research ⬇️

I'm happy to release this preprint along with @andrecravo.bsky.social and the our wonderful colleagues at the Timing and Cognition Lab at UFABC.

Overfitting, as it is colloquially described in data science and machine learning, doesn’t exist. www.argmin.net/p/thou-shalt...

🕒 Excited to share our latest study on Temporal Binding, recently published in Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics! We explored task-dependent variations and reliability across paradigms. Here's what we found: rdcu.be/d4eLP #TemporalPerception #Causality #TemporalBinding #Reliability

Happy that this has now been published: link.springer.com/article/10.3... Open (view-only) version can also be seen here: rdcu.be/d4eLP Code and data: osf.io/tk8f6/
