📣 Digital Research Community! The new UK Adolescent Health Study will follow 100k young people (8–18yrs) for 10+ years. Please share what digital technology measures you think it should include. Please complete this survey (by 24th November 2025 @ 9AM): cambridge.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

Our paper on improving statistical reporting in psychology is now online 🎉 As a part of this paper, we also created the Transparent Statistical Reporting in Psychology checklist, which researchers can use to improve their statistical reporting practices www.nature.com/articles/s44...

implies the only people interested in the obituaries are psychologists. V short sighted to keep historically important psychologists fenced off from the outside world

“…This means that one of the indispensable inputs of generative AI is the very output that open science works hard to generate and perfect: open data, source code, scientific articles and educational resources, all of which are provided for free and are often funded by tax-payer monies”

Open up access to the past… Dr @maddipow.bsky.social (University of Leeds) on the importance of obituaries. www.bps.org.uk/psychologist...

Shout out to @psychmag.bsky.social for being speedy, open access, and helping to share things I care about quickly and freely: www.bps.org.uk/psychologist...

Response from the APA: “The obituaries are a highly valued part of the American Psychologist. We offer access to the journal as part of our APA membership. If you are interested in membership, please let us know”

Latest academic hot take: it is gross and inhumane and wrong that obituaries are ever held behind a paywall that publishers profit from

The solutions of the past 3 decades have failed to change the incentives of #PublishOrPerish. As a result, researcher funding, time, control, and trust has been lost. The ONE CONSTANT in the wake of the serial crisis, #PlanS and #OpenAccess reform has been publish profit margins. 2/n

The race to churn out papers is a systemic problem. Early career scholars are desperate to get more papers to compete in the academic job market. This can make it hard for faculty mentors hard to reduce their output unless they shrink their lab (which removes opportunities from next generation).

I was talking to a student today about my favourite writers and their lovely little linguistic and stylistic quirks, and it made me sad to think that the AI-ification of academic writing could render a lot of that uniqueness extinct one day

Today my twin brother rang to update me on how his newborn babies are doing, and I told him in detail about how I recently made the decision to switch to Arial as my default email font. Being 28 comes at you fast

Asking researchers to be mindful of their citational practices isn't a threat to academic freedom, and it isn't censorship. It's good academic practice

Home from Indonesia with jet lag, sun burn, and a 3-page to-do list of things I want to write and read and people I want to talk to. I had the best time ever meeting with old and new collaborators and chatting about education reform and how to do things better 🇮🇩💜

Thrilled to announce that @maddipow.bsky.social and I have just submitted our edited book, Teaching Open Science to the publisher! ✨️ 📖 🌎 It comprises 12 beautiful chapters on topics such as teaching #ReproducibleResearch, developing #OpenEducationalResources, & #DecolonisingTheCurriculum

I collected some materials on critical AI from my perspective; hope it's useful: olivia.science/ai "CAIL is as an umbrella for all the prerequisite knowledge required to have an expert-level critical perspective, such as to tell apart nonsense hype from true theoretical computer scientific claims"

In Bali for the “Psychology from the East, Psychology from the West” conference 🇮🇩 🏝️ Today I spoke about how the “embracing” of AI in education may contribute to the dehumanisation of both students and educators, ft a lively discussion about @olivia.science et al’s paper on uncritical adoption

'..commitment to openness and freedom reflects a strikingly instrumental logic. These values are to be protected not as ends in themselves, but because they are believed to drive scientific progress & deliver tangible (often marketable) outcomes, thus ultimately serving political & economic agendas"

Lovely to host you in our school Dr Madeleine Pownall! Thank you for sharing your insights with Aston community!

“Most job adverts for senior management positions begin with the need for the applicant to have a world-leading academic record. But isn’t that rather odd given that neither teaching nor research are in the senior manager’s job description?” 💯

Check out our new preprint on "How to Develop and Use Open Educational Resources" 📖✨ This iteration will later be published in a new book "Teaching Open Science" edited by @drcpennington.bsky.social and @maddipow.bsky.social. Watch this space! 👀 osf.io/preprints/ed...

Had a lovely lovely time chatting about what could be the (inclusive, collaborative, reflexive) future of open science at @astonpsychology.bsky.social this week. Thanks @drcpennington.bsky.social for hosting me and chatting open science non-stop for 3 full days 📚

Gave 3 welcome lectures to our lovely new and returning psychology students today. God I’ve missed teaching so, so much

Just gonna say that this is a foundational principle of EBTC (ebtox.org) that I work for, where part of the function of the collaboration is to provide support for people who might be marginalised in their workplaces, and we have a cast-iron don't-be-a-dick policy for involvement.

This morning I gave a talk in beautiful Norrköping about how scientific credibility may be enhanced by embracing mess and bias, rather than clinging to objectivity and a PhD student gifted me this sticker that says “scientific objectivity? Girl please”. I love it here 🇸🇪💕

Is anyone else finding the whole existential and intellectual threat of AI, rise of far right sentiment, mainstreaming pornification of women’s bodies, and erosion of human rights thing a bit much at the moment? Because same

Psychological Methods invites early-career psychologists to apply to be a 2026 Editorial Fellow. This year kicked off our EF program -- it was enriching for the EFs and rewarding for everyone involved. Let's do it again! For details: www.apa.org/pubs/journal... @apajournals.bsky.social

Finally! 🤩 Our position piece: Against the Uncritical Adoption of 'AI' Technologies in Academia: doi.org/10.5281/zeno... We unpick the tech industry’s marketing, hype, & harm; and we argue for safeguarding higher education, critical thinking, expertise, academic freedom, & scientific integrity. 1/n

A very good article, worth a read!

This is such an important thread, but this post really made me sad, because the broader scholarly infrastructure has (been) eroded to the point that knowledge exchange simply can't exist in the way it used to and there's little that journals can do about it. Because that infrastructure was people.

So excited to be heading to lovely Sweden next week to give a talk to Linköping University about reflexivity and research integrity and to give my first public lecture at the Norrköping Visualiseringscenter about the history of women in science reform! 🔭✨ visualiseringscenter.se/en/event/key...

Wrote this on the train home from Metascience. Can’t quite believe this one needed saying, but I really think that if conversations about research integrity and open science don’t take academic bullying seriously, we’ll keep perpetuating the same system that science reform was trying to change.

"This would mean building policies and practices, at every level, that support not only rigorous research but humane and compassionate interactions with one another: the values of collegiality, care and thoughtfulness that open research claims to promote." #OpenSci #MetaSci #AcademicSky #PhDSky 🧪

Our contribution to an upcoming book on teaching open science was "how to teach reproducible research". There are plenty of lesson plans or individual courses out there but less on how you can build skills across a whole degree. osf.io/preprints/ps...
