I found the official FIFA app for the World Cup to be far too confusing, so I made my own website that just shows the results clearly and nothing else. It allows highlighting of two teams (Netherlands and Curacao by default). sachaepskamp.com/FIFA2026/

New pre-print! Estimating Network Temperature Through Multi-Group Ising Modeling - bridging measurement invariance and Ising modeling. pre-print: osf.io/preprints/ps... Galvoro explainer: galvoro.app/capsules/net...

I spent the past semester building interactive teaching apps with AI-assisted coding. I used my personal website to share them with my students, but that makes them hard to find for other educators. So I built Galvoro — galvoro.app

Eight years ago, @adelaisvoranu.bsky.social and I made a card game called Statcheck: The Game for friends who like verifying each other's statistical accuracy! But what if you don't have any friends?! The first online version against CPUs is now playable: 🔗 galvoro.app/capsules/statcheck-the-game

27 new videos on research methods and statistics are now live on my YouTube channel! 🧵 www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

New paper— everyone is collecting intensive longitudinal data but recent review studies report that less than half of studies consider measurement/psychometrics. The paper covers a few foundational psychometric methods for ILD and provides a shiny app to apply them link.springer.com/article/10.3...

My last game was frequentist. This one's Bayesian. In BATTLE BAYES you're M₀, the intercept-only null model — fed up with being rejected. Collect evidence, INTERCEPT your rivals' excess θ, get SELECTED. Yes, the button name is a pun. sachaepskamp.com/battle_bayes/ #rstats #statsed #bayesian

EXTREME GALTON now also contains a "LEARN" mode to run simulations and learn more about sampling and the central limit theorem. No bazookas though... sachaepskamp.com/extreme_galt...

After 150 years of boring wooden Galton boards, I finally fixed it! Now with lasers, bazookas, bombs, pinball bumpers, and extremely serious sci-fi hamsters. 🎯 EXTREME GALTON 👇 sachaepskamp.com/extreme_galton

Exam prep for a research and statistics exam in 2026! sachaepskamp.com/PL2132_games...

Thrilled to share that our work (with Sverre Urnes Johnson and @sachaepskamp.bsky.social) on invariance partial pruning (IVPP), a novel approach to comparing networks in time-series and panel data is now online at Psychological Methods 10.1037/met0000824 (preprint link: 10.31234/osf.io/vb8dz_v2).

mlVAR #Rstats 📦 version 0.6.1 is now on CRAN! Major updates include the mlGGM function for multi-level GGM estimation on nested cross-sectional data (e.g., students nested in classrooms) and the inclusion of residuals + predicted values from the mlVAR results. cran.r-project.org/web/packages...

The largest #Rstats 📦psychonetrics update so far is on its way to CRAN!

Last day of AMPC 2026 at NUS — the first time this conference was held in Asia! Thank you to all the speakers, participants, co-organizers, and volunteers for an incredible three days. #AMPC2026 #ampc26sg #MathematicalPsychology #NUS #Singapore

Why use Powerpoint, LaTeX or Markdown if you can just vibe-code anything you want... For #ampc26sg I re-created my slides as an immersive online slide-deck: sachaepskamp.com/AMPC2026/. Including support for mobiles to scroll through the presentation.

Last day prep for the 2026 Australasian mathematical psychology conference at @NUSingapore! #ampc26sg

Excited to be leading my new lab at the NUS Department of Psychology!

Only one week left to submit abstracts for the 2026 Australasian Mathematical Psychology conference! Come join us in Singapore this February! ampc2026.com

Please share! There are still spots available for my 3-day workshop on psychometric network modeling of longitudinal data in Singapore Dec 11 - 13! fass.nus.edu.sg/psy/network-... The workshop can be combined with a workshop Dec 8 - 10 on Foundations, Theory, and Cross-sectional Data Analysis!

Excited to be hosting the AMPC conference on mathematical psychology, psychometrics and behavioral data science in Singapore this February! Please share with whoever might be interested! ampc2026.com

Very excited to host two events in Singapore: the professional certification workshops on Network Psychometrics in Decemer and the 2026 edition of the Australasian Mathematical Psychology conference in February! Links for registration below. fass.nus.edu.sg/psy/network-... ampc2026.com

Welcome to the world Luna! And happy birthday to your big brother turning 4 already ❤️

Happy to share that our article, led by @xinkaidu.bsky.social, on confirmatory network modeling has been published in Psychological Methods! psycnet.apa.org/record/2026-...

Save the date! Next year we will host the 2026 Australasian Mathematical Psychology Conference in Singapore! Including research in mathematical psychology, computational modeling, psychometrics and data science / AI! #AMPC26SG

🚀 New Article Alert! "Observed correlations between person-means depend on within-person correlations" By Jonas Haslbeck (@jmbh.bsky.social) & Sacha Epskamp (@sachaepskamp.bsky.social) advances.in/psychology/1...

I gave a 2-hour workshop on Structural Equation Modeling and Confirmatory Factor Analysis in lavaan for the Psych #rstats Club. the recording is available here: youtu.be/YrxvV8zlNLY?... Supported by @improvingpsych.org!

Super excited today to teach the first summer school / workshop on longitudinal network modeling in Singapore and to receive the first ever translation (in Japanese!) of our textbook!

Did anyone check if the #Paris2024 Olympics mascot follows a normal density?

Updated preprint on potential bias in mlVAR between-person network results! osf.io/preprints/ps...

Two more weeks to register for our workshops on network psychometrics and longitudinal data modeling in Singapore next month! Registration closes July 15. fass.nus.edu.sg/psy/network-...

Very excited to teach the first ever workshop on psychonetrics at the Modern Modeling Methods (M3) conference in Storrs, Connecticut today! All materials are now available on the OSF: osf.io/dax8g/

Just in time for the Modern Modeling Methods (M3) conference starting this Monday (modeling.uconn.edu), #Rstats 📦 psychonetrics version 0.13 is now on CRAN! This version (finally) includes bootstrap methods for accuracy and stability checks.

Interested in Network Psychometrics? This summer there are workshops in three different continents! June 24 (US): modeling.uconn.edu July 1 - July 4 (Netherlands): psychosystems.org/psynets-work... July 29 - August 3 (Singapore): fass.nus.edu.sg/psy/network-...

Just in time for #aps24sf, the psychonetrics #Rstats package for (dynamic) SEM and network psychometrics has been updated to version 0.12 on CRAN! This is a massive update that should resolve many issues with the package (e.g., convergence issues and poor start values).

I am teaching "Research and statistics II" for the first time next semester, which covers ANOVA, correlational/regression analysis and basic psychometrics. I will teach the course using @JASPStats and I am looking for potential textbooks to use for this course. Any suggestions are very welcome!

Ok I'm a million years late to the party, but I finally found my way to bluesky! ✋ Hi! I'm Michèle, a meta-scientist interested in statistical errors & improving overall robustness of psychological science. 🙏 If anyone has tips to build up my network here, please let me know!

3/3 We also look at two families in detail (who had most data) & conduct simulation studies. Thx to all co-authors, incl @sachaepskamp.bsky.social. Paper: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
