Our detailed tests of high-speed OLED monitors for vision, eye-tracking, and EEG research are finally out in 𝐵𝑒ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑖𝑜𝑟 𝑅𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑐ℎ 𝑀𝑒𝑡ℎ𝑜𝑑𝑠. So why did it take 1.5 years to publish this? Because we discovered a new property of OLEDs that vision researchers should be aware of... [1]

New #EEGManyLabs paper out in Cortex! We asked whether contralateral delay activity, or CDA, can serve as a reliable EEG marker of visual working memory capacity. doi.org/10.1016/j.co...

Many Labs 5 was such a cool project. Authors who argued that a study from the Reproducibility Project: Psychology was 'too different', leading to a null result, could propose their own replication. Mostly null results again. Blaming auxiliaries is easy. Replication is hard.

The need for positive data is the original sin of science. To exist in science, you need grants. To get grants, you need to publish papers. To publish papers, you need positive data. This leads to null data staying in file drawers, and false or misleading positive data being published.

A multi-lab replication effort (@eegmanylabs.bsky.social) of the contralateral delay activity (CDA) has just been published online! In brief, the set-size effect appears to be robustly observed, but CDA correlation with VWM capacity is not reliably strong. doi.org/10.1016/j.co...

JOB ALERT: PhD opening in my lab! @cimecunitrento.bsky.social in Italy, as part of an Italian FIS3 starting grant. The project will use advanced analysis methods of MEG data to investigate how our world's naturalistic hierarchical structure facilitates predictive neural processing.

Today, the SCORE program releases its primary results! 865 researchers examined research credibility across the social and behavioral sciences, publishing three papers in Nature + five preprints. 📑 Explore the papers: www.nature.com/colle... ℹ️ Read more about SCORE: www.cos.io/score

UAB is recruiting neuroscience faculty at two different levels - come join our vibrant neuroscience community!

Now available on the OSF as part of a growing collection of preregistration resources, the new EEG & ERP Methods template guides researchers through every stage of ERP study planning. In our Q&A, two of its creators share how the template can help researchers at all stages:

main goal for this year: find a new job! 🙂 looking for a role with fun & complex technical challenges & within a great community. my main expertise is in signal processing/EEG/MEG, but topic-wise I am quite flexible. science/industry both great! starting mid-year. nschawor.github.io/cv

Happy to share that our #Python implementation of GEDAI (Generalized Eigenvalue De-Artifacting Instrument) is now available 🐍 💻 🧠 neurotuning.github.io/gedai/dev/in...

Yeah! Let's get this year started off right. A new theoretical model for everyone's favorite sensitive and specific neural marker. So why is it a marker of goals if it is called the Reward Positivity? 1/4

Grading and googling hallucinated citations, as one does nowadays, and now that LLMs have been around for a while, I've discovered new horrors: hallucinated journals are now appearing in Google Scholar with dozens of citations bc so many people are citing these fake things

Have other people had this issue with PsyArXiv and Google Scholar? None of my recent PsyArXiv papers are showing up in Google Scholar, including ones posted over two months ago. @improvingpsych.org @briannosek.bsky.social

🚨 New preprint: Invisible neural frequency tagging (RIFT) for the underfunded researcher: 👉 www.biorxiv.org/cgi/content/... RIFT uses high-frequency flicker to probe attention in M/EEG with minimal stimulus visibility and little distraction. Until now, it required a costly high-speed projector.

After a couple of years in the making, we are thrilled to launch the new home for #EEGManyLabs: eegmanylabs.org

How do you share annotations of your (i)EEG data? Super excited to share our new manuscript describing the HED library schema with 396 standardized, machine readable, @bidsstandard.bsky.social compatible, #EEG or #iEEG annotations, based on the SCORE standard: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

We’re hiring! 🥳fully funded PhD and postdoc positions in human cognitive neuroscience @mpicybernetics.bsky.social M/EEG and brain stimulation methods to study timing/ prediction/ attention/ oscillations tinyurl.com/5dku4du9 @timingresforum.bsky.social @gtc-tuebingen.bsky.social please repost 🙏

🚨 New preprint alert! Excited to share our latest work on alpha/beta activity, eye movements, and memory. Across 4 experiments combining scalp EEG/iEEG with eye tracking, we show that alpha/beta activity directly reflects eye movements, and only indirectly relates to memory. 👇 Highlights (1/7):

Happy to have contributed together with @lgrabot.bsky.social to discuss #traveling_waves and cognition!

We're excited to share the new logo for COST Action AFFECT-EVO! How many species can you find in the phylogenetic tree?

Enjoying #IOP2025 and it was my honour to chair this symposium and present our progress with the #EEGManyLabs replications. Learned a lot from the talks by Martin Constant, Peter Clayson, Aleya Marzuki and Katharina Paul

🎉 Exciting news! Our Stage 1 Registered Report on the Coherence of Gamma-Band EEG Activity as a Basis for Associative Threat Learning has been accepted at Nature Human Behaviour! You can read the uploaded protocol here: doi.org/10.6084/m9.f... Stay tuned for Stage 2! 🧠

746 proposals for a total of 3M (about 13 will be funded). If orgs spent 4000 in personnel time preparing their proposals on average, then this mechanism actually reduced funding for open science. Open science is extremely underfunded.

Once upon a time I couldn't replicate a published finding...and decided to do something about it. Little did I know how long it would take to finish 😭...but here we are. I'm super proud of this paper and grateful to the other 68 (!) authors. ❤️ royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/...

Big news. After 48 drafts, Clay Holroyd and I are excited to present a narrative review and new theoretical summary on our favorite sensitive & specific EEG marker of reward receipt - the Reward Positivity: tinyurl.com/yzy98rur

$500 million is… less than 1.25% of the NIH’s 2024 budget. When I say there is no capacity to absorb the shock, I mean it.

🚨Exciting news! We now have the first-ever complete #EEGManyLabs replication. This large-scale multi-site study revisits a key debate in EEG & reinforcement learning. A thread! 🧵👇 📄 Full paper: doi.org/10.1016/j.co...

As part of #EEGManyLabs project, a network of collaborators will attempt to replicate Hajcak and Foti’s (2008) findings on the ERN and defensive motivation. Check the preprint: Revisiting Defensive Motivation and the Error-Related Negativity: A Multi-Site Replication Study osf.io/preprints/ps...

Here is something I suspect happens *a lot*: Researchers have nested data. Run rmANOVA. Don't get significant results. "Hey, how about multilevel models?" Run MLM with only random intercept. Everything is significant. "I guess MLMs have more power!" Publish. #stats

Entering my final year as editor of @psychscience.bsky.social #AMPPS in 2025. I'd love for us to receive papers on open science practices in human neuroscience-- any of the sub-areas (social, affective, etc)! Send us a best practices paper. Also: which are the strong papers out there now?

🚀 Excited to share our preprint! 🌍 "Doing conferences differently: decentralising for ecological and social sustainability" highlights #CuttingGardens 2023, the multi-hub conference #CuttingEEG designed to reduce carbon emissions and enhance inclusivity in international events.

Why did we choose the name “Pack&Go?” We wanted a name that showcased just how easy it is to put MATLAB/PTB studies online. Just upload your scripts to the online portal, test, and start distributing links. It's that easy—just Pack... and GO! Learn more at: replug.link/BSPnGOct6

I have recently started using Pack & Go, and it's as easy as they make it sound. Upload your PTB code, and hey presto you have your experiment in a browser.
