Many claim memory biases toward percepts reflect corruption in sensory signals. We challenge this view by showing that ppl adapt their integration rationally w/ experience. w/ @timbrady.bsky.social Humans adaptively integrate memory and perception based on stimulus history | osf.io/preprints/ps...

I wrote up something that's been in my head for a while: psychometric methods alone can't tell us what cognitive tasks and their indicators measure. Correlating indicators across tasks is circular when constructs are defined by those same correlations. osf.io/preprints/ps... 🧵1/3

📢 PhD position in the @cognition-zurich.bsky.social at University of Zurich I’ve been part of the lab for 7+ years, and it’s a genuinely collaborative and supportive place to grow as a researcher and do research on working memory and cognition 👇

The Center for Theoretical and Computational Neuroscience at WashU has an opening for a postdoctoral scholar! Deadline is May 1. ctcn.wustl.edu/postdoc-fell...

I'm so tired of seeing this argument – as working memory is a limited resource, and as the modern environment is now so information-rich and complex, and as our brains evolved in the olden times to have dopamine reward circuity - ATTENTION SPANS ARE CRATERING INTO THE GROUND. youtu.be/t0qq9R__XiQ

Only 5 days left!!!

We're #recruiting a research assistant to work on a DFG-funded project on #MetaScience at the University of Cologne. Some coding skills in #python required, and interest in modelling the #cognition of #reading! Please spread the word!

Conventional systematic reviews can become outdated before they're even published. In our new @nathumbehav.nature.com piece, we discuss how living systematic reviews can help keep evidence current by continuously integrating new evidence. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I’m searching for the original and/or rights owner of this fabulous picture of Birmingham in the early 1970s. It popped up on my Instagram feed, but I’ve been unable to track it down. Any leads? I’m really hoping to use it in a book. (And would much appreciate a RT please)

Can We Process Information Without Encoding It into Working Memory? Our findings with @gidon-frischkorn.bsky.social and @koberauer.bsky.social suggest that processing entails encoding. Task-irrelevant information enters working memory during processing, impairing memory for relevant information.

A feature in Nature examines the research about aphantasia, which is the experience of people with no mental imagery, and how it could offer a window into consciousness. #Neuroskyence 🧪

Interesting @pubpeer.com thread. A paper was retracted because "one of the authors acted as a reviewer". pubpeer.com/publications... The authors respond that it's the editors' fault for inviting an author as a reviewer. The author honestly didn't recognize their own manuscript (it was double blind)

New draft: "Decline effects, statistical artifacts, and a meta-analytic paradox". In this manuscript I show how a common practice in meta-analysis (eg the 2015 Open Science Collaboration) creates artifactual signatures of poor scientific behavior. PDF: raw.githubusercontent.com/richarddmore... 1/x
