Conversational turn-taking feels effortless, but it's a complex dance. We find social context—who you're talking to and what you're talking about—fundamentally changes conversational dynamics in both autistic & TD children. 1/ onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... w @chrismmcox.bsky.social

One @interacting-minds.bsky.social initiative that I'm very proud of is our Friday writing cafe. If you're around @au.dk and want to experience the magic of co-writing, come along tomorrow at 10.00 - 14.00. There'll be snacks! Big thx to our organisers @chrismmcox.bsky.social @trupthi.bsky.social

Follow @interacting-minds.bsky.social for a view into an interdisciplinary research environment on - surprise - interacting minds and bodies. It brings in researchers from humanities and health research, from social and natural sciences. And listen to the podcasts, interactingminds.au.dk/podcast!

Our mega-analysis of infant-directed speech preference is now out at Open Mind, integrating data from a multi-lab replication (@manybabies.org) and a meta-analysis. w/ @chrismmcox.bsky.social, @chbergma.bsky.social, Maya Mathur, @mcxfrank.bsky.social + a fab team direct.mit.edu/opmi/article...  1/

How do you plan a study? Would increase trials help, or rather participants? @chrismmcox.bsky.social has you covered w a great integrated simulation-based power analysis tutorial: - video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWCe... - commented code: 4ccoxau.github.io/PowerAnalysi... #psysky #neurosky

Definitely check out the website if you're looking for beautiful code to run simulation-based power analyses: 4ccoxau.github.io/PowerAnalysi... @chrismmcox.bsky.social put together a really incredible resource.

Our Power Analysis workshop, led by @chrismmcox.bsky.social, is TOMORROW! You can still register to attend live or get the recording link sent to you by going to manybabies.org/events/ See you there! #stats #devpsych #manybabies

Our next workshop is coming up soon! Power Analysis March 12, 2024 | 14:00-15:30 UTC (3-4:30pm CET) on Zoom Presented by: @chrismmcox.bsky.social, Aarhus University Learn more and register now! manybabies.org/events/ #psychsky #devpsych #manybabies #academicsky

New paper from @thaliawheatley.bsky.social, me, @stolkarjen.bsky.social & @lukejchang.bsky.social at Perspectives on Psychological Science! "The Emerging Science of Interacting Minds" Read about why we think that this is an auspicious moment for interaction science! Link: doi.org/10.1177/1745...

"Repeat after me? Both autistic & neurotypical children commonly align their language with that of their caregivers" in which we critically assess alignment and echolalia, out now in Cognitive Science:  dx.doi.org/10.1111/cogs... w @ethanweed.bsky.social, @rockberta.bsky.social &al. A thread: 1/n

As I said elsewhere: What's supposed to be surprising about arriving at different results under different models making different assumptions, using different methods that also make different assumptions? It's almost as if our inference depends on the model & method. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
