New paper by my PhD student @semihaktepe.bsky.social now published 🚀 "Revisiting the effect of discrepant perceptual fluency on truth judgments" tinyurl.com/2eepue5y --> Two experiments & a meta-analysis indicate that high visual contrast does not lead to higher truth judgments.

How does plausibility shape the truth effect? In our new paper with @danielheck.bsky.social, we propose a Bayesian model specifying how repetition and plausibility jointly influence binary truth judgments in light of nonlinear transformations. 🔓 Read it for free: rdcu.be/eccDv

New preprint by my PhD student @semihaktepe.bsky.social: Revisiting the Effect of Discrepant Perceptual Fluency on Truth Judgments osf.io/preprints/ps... We could not replicate the effect that higher color contrast results in higher truth judgments in two online experiments (N=98 and N=294).

We have a new reproduction. Siepe et al. reproduce: "A systematic review and Bayesian meta-analysis of the acoustic features of infant-directed speech" by Cox et al. @naturehumbehav.bsky.social. Full report below.

We (matzekloft.bsky.social, Semih Aktepe, @danielheck.bsky.social) recently participated in a robustness reproduction of articles in Nature Human Behaviour. It was a nice learning experience to check the reproducibility of others' code and to think about useful additional robustness analyses
