“women in social science have long practiced and promoted principles now hailed as innovative, although their contributions are often left out of mainstream narratives”

I'm delighted to learn that this article on open science by @maddipow.bsky.social is just one taste of the collection of stories in her new book "Absent Minds" about women who changed psychology forever: www.bps.org.uk/psychologist...

@maddipow.bsky.social this is fantastic work for the #openscience community helping bring important parts of its history(ies) to light journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

"We open the issue with Madeleine Pownall’s article, 'Women as the First Open Scientists'.” @maddipow.bsky.social

Introduction to a special issue on feminist metascience and open science by Christin Munsch and @divreyes.bsky.social doi.org/10.1177/0891...

New paper! Values such as openness, transparency, collaboration, clarity about conflict of interests have been promoted by women for *decades*, and now we have reframed this around the branding of 'open science' that we start to take them seriously. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

P.S. if you liked this paper, I wrote a whole book about it (that's out now!) www.waterstones.com/book/absent-...

Just read this paper and thought it was excellent! Would recommend to anyone interested in the feminist foundation of open science practices.

Amazing work from @maddipow.bsky.social 🔥 🔥

This really is an excellent paper. Incredibly informative and an instant addition to my methods class

I'm not being hyperbolic when I say I have been writing this paper for literally years now, so I'm proud that she's finally out in the world. It was also probably the most constructive, kind, challenging review process I've ever had.

"Contemporary narratives often frame Open Science and metascience as novel frontiers of transparency and rigor, obscuring their deep roots in feminist methodologies and critical social science traditions." New work by @maddipow.bsky.social

Brilliant! "[C]ontemporary understandings of Open Science, as both an epistemological orientation and a set of practical tools, may be strengthened by more clearly connecting them to the scholarship and practices developed by women" 👏👏 cc @sabinaleonelli.bsky.social

[…]as an entirely new movement overlooks its intellectual precedents […] risking the neglect of earlier scholarship. Second, when historical work is cited as foundational to Open Science, it typically reproduces existing patterns of gendered exclusion, rarely crediting women’s longstanding work […].

Adding this to my To Read list. Unfortunately, even just the abstract will teach you more than most people know. #OpenScience

If human editors can’t control who reviews science, it’s no longer peer review — it’s a rubber-stamp machine designed for volume and profit, not quality. I have no intention of attaching my name to it. So I’m out.

"The transition [to university] is primarily social with academic and emotional aspects of that transition often flowing from the social experience." New work by @lilliansmyth.bsky.social and team. #AcademicSky #HigherEd #SocialPsyc

At @maddipow.bsky.social's book launch, one descriptor for her stood out: "Joyous". Perhaps a rare quality in life generally, and academia specifically? That energy leaps off the pages of her book... read the extract now. www.bps.org.uk/psychologist...

It’s finally launch week!

A womanless Psychology is an incomplete Psychology… An exclusive extract from ‘Absent Minds: The Untold Story of the Women who Changed Psychology Forever’, by @maddipow.bsky.social @headlinebooks.bsky.social www.bps.org.uk/psychologist...

An exclusive extract from the conclusion of Absent Minds is out today in The Psychologist! www.bps.org.uk/psychologist...

At @sussex.ac.uk @maddipow.bsky.social presents important arguments on the relationship between qual research and open science

« The voices and practices of people who live/breathe/feel/imagine/construct knowledge in the maroons of life-along with their stunning/quirky/ complex/unpredictable ways-may be lost or worse; sacrificed. » Absolutely, why are the AI-bros so angry?

The publication of this article has managed to get all the white men academics on X really really angry--even if they do not actually do qualitative research and are not qualified to comment. Once again, why are the AIbros so ANGRY when we refuse? journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

ah the irony of claiming it's "mumbo jumbo" when they are going to discover AI is research misconduct statistically so too doi.org/10.31234/osf... oopsie poopsie

While I was finishing up my book, my twin brother and sister-in-law had twins, aka my two new best friends for life. Showing them this today was pretty special ❤️

This new book by @maddipow.bsky.social looks great: 'Absent Minds: The Untold Story of the Women who Changed Psychology Forever'. ['A scintillating tour of the human mind through the work of history's forgotten female psychologists. Illuminating, engrossing and beautifully written'.] #psychscisky 🧪

First copies of Absent Minds are here 💙 Launch on 7th May! www.waterstones.com/book/absent-...

In what’s been a busy week here at @micireland.bsky.social Psychology, a highlight was getting a sneak preview of @maddipow.bsky.social ‘s new book at the start of our annual Psychfest event.

Can't begin to tell you how proud I am of this acknowledgment from @maddipow.bsky.social in her new book 'Absent Minds: The Untold Story of the Women who Changed Psychology Forever'. Looking forward to the launch!
