Currently a lot of attention is going to get people to preregister, to check preregistrations, and noting deviations. But the most important step will be evaluating the impact of the deviations! There is almost no work on this. Good topic for a young metascientist!

Our #openaccess paper on the Tree of Life methodology in a UK secure forensic inpatient setting is out in #CurrentPsychlogy ToL supported identity development, and fostered shared understanding & community. See link: link.springer.com/article/10.1... #ForensicPsychology #MentalHealth

The Perspectives on Scientific Error (#PSE8) conference was great - I will be coming back. It was nice meeting so many new people, and getting the opportunity to discuss statistical, philosophical, and meta-scientific issues of scientific error.

This was a banger of a talk.

Insights from the #PSE8 conference Day 2: I was particularly struck by a presentation from Prof Leif Nelson on the detection of problematic data. I wonder how many of us have came across problematic papers - or datasets and don’t what to do!? #ResearchIntegrity #OpenScience

Insights from the Perspectives on Scientific Error (#PSE8) conference 🧵 Day 1: what a thought provoking morning. Replication remains one of the cornerstones of scientific progress, yet replication studies are still notoriously difficult to publish. Many never make it into print at all.

Everything is ready for the Perspectives on Scientific Error conference that starts tomorrow in Leiden! I look forward to hanging out with the mix of metascientists, philosophers of science, and statisticians! So many old friends will be there (and hopefully some new ones)! #PSE8

Compositional data (proportions that sum to 1) behave in ways standard models aren’t built for I walk through why Dirichlet regression is often the right tool & what extra insight it gives using a real ex of eyetracking #Dirichlet #r #brms #guide #eyetracking open.substack.com/pub/mzlotean...

Hey #Criminology folk, Does anyone know of any research on how the #policing of different age ranges within populations impacts on how we understand the Age/Crime curve?? #LifeCourse #DevelopmentalCriminology #CriminalJustice #Desistance

To test mediation in an experiment, it's not enough to just randomly assign participants to X. Manipulating both X and M is ideal, but if you can't, this paper shows you how to perform sensitivity analyses that quantify how much confounders fucked up your model. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....
