Incredible work on paper mills. I really wonder what happened to the cluster of fraudulent editors/authors at PLOSone in the lower right corner? Were there any real repercussions or are they still milling around?

he can't keep getting away with this

Why do measures of putatively the same construct so often fail to correlate strongly across units of analysis (self/informant report, behavioral, physiological/neural): measurement problems or truly actually capturing different constructs (or some of both)?

New work with UCL PhD student Max Maier. We develop a risky-choice variant, the Extinction Gambling Task, for studying repeated choice situations where choices are consequential. Max also derived the optimal policies and developed a computational model to classify strategies. Check it out!

Definitely trying this!

when the paper you're reviewing put the figures at the end

Nice work!

Very nice results, yet surprised interpretation all in terms of prior knowledge. Constant intervals allow predictability, but may also affect neural network dynamics w/o cognitive influences. Isn’t a control cond with predictable yet variable intervals needed to support conclusions ?

Great advice from Chris Chambers at our Cardiff University School of Psychology research away day on increasing the visibility of your research

Had a great time at the AVA Xmas meeting back in December where a lot of great vision work was being presented. I'm grateful to have been awarded a poster prize for our current work on measures of executive control; SSRT and our potential alternative, ΔT. Find the prereg at osf.io/n4xek/regist...

Congratulations to @heatherrstatham.bsky.social for her prize at the AVA Xmas meeting yesterday 👍 "How long does it take to convert visual signals into instruction driven commands?" delivered the first data towards our pre-registered study osf.io/n4xek/regist... #beyondSSRT 😁

It looks even better once it's typeset for Imaging #Neuroscience 😎 Come take your single trial #ERP : It only costs you an #EEG or #MEG dataset, a few assumptions and a reaction time per trial (and a bit of RAM to be honest) direct.mit.edu/imag/article...

Finished my PhD! And what a great way to wrap it up - very happy to get to discuss my work and the response inhibition field with @alinebompas.bsky.social! 🤓 These past years, I've been focusing on some of the assumptions we tend to use when researching action stopping... ⬇️
