"frequent makerspace participation showed a significant positive relationship with STEM career interest only among men (Frequent × Men: β = 0.89, OR = 2.44, p = 0.002), while women’s predicted career interest remained essentially flat across participation levels." link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Selecting an effect size for power analysis is hard. Many researchers fall back on Cohen's thresholds, but they have no empirical basis and vary wildly by field. Our new paper offers a better option: field-specific effect size distributions built from meta-analytic data doi.org/10.3758/s134...

Is mental imagery a single process? Our meta-analysis of 46 fMRI studies suggests not. We find a key divide between object imagery (visualizing an object in rich detail) and spatial imagery (mentally transforming objects). This split mirrors the ventral and dorsal streams of vision

In a number comparison task, the size effect is, in fact, at least three distinct size effects with three corresponding generators. See more details about the anatomy of the number comparison size effect at doi.org/10.3758/s134...
