OMG - So I'm in Australia and this is what every 19-year-old guy looks like right now. Jacob Elordi (the actor/teenage dirtbag shown here) is Australian... so blame Australia I guess? Or Elordi?

The book is real! To celebrate, I will give out five copies to interested early career folks. DM if you’d like one.

A recent redesign of OSF by @cos.io led to widespread access failures. What began as a few broken download links became for me a total disappearance of eight years of DOI-registered work. What happened, how was it resolved, and what it reveals about trust and infrastructure in open science

This November, like every November, I am teaching basic research proposal writing to the new phd cohort at my institute. Here is the 2 page template we start with and adapt. Link to LaTeX github.com/rmcelreath/P...

🚨 Spread the word! We're (w/ @whitneyringwald.bsky.social & @aleksakaurin.bsky.social) organizing a special issue at PD:TRT focused on innovations for measuring context in ambulatory assessment studies of personality pathology. We'd love for you (yes, you) to submit a proposal (deadline Nov. 14th):

Major shoutout to @andrew.heiss.phd for recreating FiveThirtyEight's p-hacking app. My teaching prep panic at discovering the broken link lasted only a few minutes of googling thanks to this beautiful replacement: stats.andrewheiss.com/hack-your-way

We're looking for #Turkish speaking study participants! We are exploring the #iconicity levels of #Turkish words, and your participation would really support our research!

Made it on the Celtics Jumbotron at the preseason game against the Raptors. Peak Boston.

And now the paper has finally been accepted, I just wanna say to all the editors: PLEASE stop sending papers back out to reviewers after 1 (at most 2) round! It’s a burden on the system when a decision could be made without reviewers’ approvals. It’s not the reviewers’ job to have a final say!

Dear PsyArXiv users! The OSF platform, which hosts PsyArXiv, has updated the PsyArXiv user interface! Unfortunately, some key moderation functions need repairs after the upgrade. This will delay some moderation decisions this week. 🔧 Thank you for your patience!

Is anyone going to #SAS2026 and would like to be part of a symposium on the measurement of emotions? I wanna present results from mixed methods study where we asked people to explain HOW they chose a certain number during each emotion assessment. @affectscience.bsky.social #AffectSci Pls share!

In this behemoth effort led by @anhhtran.bsky.social, we reanalysed 11 experience-sampling datasets, and found limited evidence that context (intensity, controllability, and social features) meaningfully shaped everyday emotion regulation strategy use.

What happens when someone screams "Urgent, Hurry Up!!!" at you while you're trying to perform a task requiring fine motor control?? We borrowed the integrative framework of stress, visual attention, and motor performance to answer this question. Check out the updated preprint (v3).
