If you are preparing your bachelor statistics course and would like to add optional material for students to better understand statistics on a conceptual level (see topics in the screenshot) my free textbook provides a state of the art overview. lakens.github.io/statistical_...

“The study authors asked GPT 4o-mini to evaluate the quality of 217 papers. The tool didn’t mention in any of the reports that the papers being analyzed had been retracted or had validity issues. In 190 cases, GPT described the papers as world leading, internationally excellent, or close to that”

In a new pub, we examined subgroup differences in Asian American children, particularly 1) the diversity of math achievement and 2) what factors predict this diversity. Ultimately, we wanted to see whether the factors predicting math achievement is the same across subgroups. doi.org/10.1080/1040...

Psychologists & related fields: what is a big methods question that you believe remains somewhat unanswered & that you'd love to see adressed? There may be an opportunity for a large-scale meta-science project with many teams trying to figure out a question. Any thoughts welcome! #psychscisky

Hey folks: A little while aback, @jschleiderphd.bsky.social and I created a repository of SOPs to help folks prepare for grad applications. If you'd like to add your SOP, feel free to use this form: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... Of note, mask as you desire as I will be posting them as is.

My Lab at the University of Edinburgh🇬🇧 has funded PhD positions for this cycle! We study the computational principles of how people learn, reason, and communicate. It's a new lab, and you will be playing a big role in shaping its culture and foundations. Spread the words!

At what point does giving #AI examples of ideal reasoning fail to produce additional benefit? With one popular #LLM analyzing clinical cases, improvement wasn't linear: accuracy peaked at around nine examples and then declined (on average). doi.org/10.1093/ehjd...#AI#LLM#edu #cogSci

🚨New article🚨 in Computers & Education We created and validated a measure of how teachers scaffold game-based learning. Turns out, teachers are great at cheering students on and keeping them on task—but need more support/resources to guide deeper thinking during games. Full study link below.

🚨 New commentary out! What guidance do academics need when partnering with digital companies on youth mental health OR edtech? We share hard-earned lessons, risks, and recommendations for ethical, transparent collaborations. Read it here 👉 doi.org/10.1111/camh...

New study in Computers & Education! When choosing educational apps, parents overwhelmingly pick what looks popular (5⭐) over what’s actually educational. The bandwagon effect is alive and well in the App Store. Here’s what we found 👇 📄 doi.org/10.1016/j.co...

whenever I play a game where the kids are every bit as good as the adults, I am floored by the elegance of the idea for example: spot it. speed game with a bunch of variants. it's a riot and works bc of cognitive psychology (8 items per card is right at the limit of working memory capacity)

New research shows happy emotions enhance brain rhythms that bind and retain memories more effectively. A glimpse into how our feelings shape learning in real time. Positive thoughts may power your memory. 🌟 While the full peer‑reviewed paper is under review, a write‑up is available. #Neuroskyence

In a study of professors, women got 378 new work requests over 4 weeks vs 118 for men. Women spent more time on service, advising & teaching; men on research. Orgs should track who is taking extra duties & ensure they are rewarded and distributed fairly. www.forbes.com/sites/kimels...

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.

We just got back from #MCLS2025, where we presented our research on numerical processing in mathematicians and on associations between long-term memory and math skills. Many fantastic talks and conversations with colleagues from around the world @mcls-official.bsky.social @mclstrainee.bsky.social

It was great to present at #MCLS2025 and #CRECE2025 at #EdUHK last week!

What a pleasure presenting our research at #MCLS2025 in Hong Kong. We shared outcomes from our study of a fraction intervention.

Sneak peak of a project we have been working on for the past two years... We hope to release more information by the end of the year. Watch this space!

Honoured to join the Sino-UK Summit in Beijing next week with colleagues from @ioe.bsky.social! 🇬🇧 Thank you, @BNU_1902, for inviting us! 🇨🇳 I will present findings from #Enigma & #Arithmos projects funded by @researchireland.ie & European Commission! 🇮🇪 #SDG4 #GBL #MathEd #MathsAnxiety #EdTech

Here is one we did for the home math environment: jnc.psychopen.eu/index.php/jn... We had 39 authors from around 14 countries work on this. Happy to talk to you about our process if you’re interested.

Thanks #EduHK for a great conference! #MCLS2025 was one for the books and Hong Kong was a beautiful location!

The #MCLS2026 conference in Hong Kong was much fun and very inspiring 😍 I was happy to see again all the great researchers I got to know over the past years, and to meet many more 😊 Also had the chance to present my research on spatial mental representations of ordinality in letters 💪🏼

Good morning #MCLS2025! We’re starting bright and early for the business meeting. Be sure to complete the DEIJ bingo and turn it in at the registration desk before the end of the day today!

It was a great #MCLS2025 as always. So happy to see everyone again and make new connections. See you all next year if not before for exciting collaborations! @mcls-official.bsky.social @mclstrainee.bsky.social

Good morning #MCLS2025 Day 3!

I absolutely loved the #MCLS2025 conference in Hong Kong! Great organisation and wonderful group of scholars. I'm grateful for all the fun and rich discussions, and for the feedback and suggestions I received on our maths anxiety study.

I had an amazing time at my first MCLS conference, where I presented some of our (soon to be published) work on fractions! It was lovely to connect with friends and meet so many new colleagues who are making amazing contributions to the field of mathematical cognition #MCLS2025
