After sitting on some revisions for months, I've made some major changes to one of my preprints. I outline an assessment approach which embeds the concepts of reproducibility and replicability while students are demonstrating their analysis skills. osf.io/preprints/os...

Papers from July to Sept 2025 at AMPPS are killer. We don't have formal print issues, but we have this-- journals.sagepub.com/toc/ampa/8/3

Ever year when I introduce NHST and the importance of effect sizes, I get students to respond what success rate would convince them that someone could see the future. Weirdly, most of the time, the answer isn't 53%...

Excited to share that I’ll be the incoming Editor of AMPPS. My first priority is building a diverse team of Associate Editors and Editorial Board members. If you’re interested, DM me or add your name via this super simple survey. cornell.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_... Please share!

Love this, very fun!

Proposal for how to fix family wise error rates. For every uncorrected p value you must add an extra letter to the claim. “Eating chocolate maaaaaaaaay be associated with lower rates of stroke”

Psychological Methods is looking for Editorial Fellows. We are looking forward to applications of early-career psychologists who will bring experiential diversity to their work. If you are interested, reach out to me or directly apply here to work with a wonderful team: www.apa.org/pubs/journal...

This fall I will have a blind student in my coding class for the first time. Do any other instructors or visually impaired coders have advice beyond making sure my book has useful alt-text for the images? #rstats #accessibility Class book: psyteachr.github.io/reprores-v5/

Our contribution to an upcoming book on teaching open science was "how to teach reproducible research". There are plenty of lesson plans or individual courses out there but less on how you can build skills across a whole degree. osf.io/preprints/ps...

Keen to help develop the international #StatsEd research community? Interested in running large-scale collaboarative #StatsEd research projects? Consider joining the @rosenetwork.bsky.social committee! There are a few days left to apply. More details: www.rose-network.org/about-us/vac....

At the FORRT Replication Hub, our mission is to support researchers who want to replicate previous findings. We have now published a big new component with which we want to fulfill this mission: An open access handbook for reproduction and replication studies: forrt.org/replication_...

I’ve had a beautiful few days in Münster. Now for a 4 hour adventure around Frankfurt until my late late flight.

Workshop done and dusted before the welcome event! All the attendees got their books up and running with minimal R Studio and GitHub shenanigans. All materials here with a walkthrough video for the book output: bartlettje.github.io/disseminatio...

I managed to make up for it 💛🖤💛

I had planned to watch a football match, but got the unlucky side of resale tickets 🥲 Instead, I had a lovely 2 hour wander around Bochum…

We’re looking for enthusiastic colleagues to join our voluntary committees and help shape the future of statistics education. Current vacancies are now live lnkd.in/eAXCBZ3j 📅 Deadline: 10th September 2025 (midnight, your time zone) 👉 Apply here: lnkd.in/euqHE4s4

Ever stared at a table of regression coefficients & wondered what you're doing with your life? Very excited to share this gentle introduction to another way of making sense of statistical models (w @vincentab.bsky.social) Preprint: doi.org/10.31234/osf...

Absolutely love this submission for the Munro Tidy Tuesday!

HE equivalent of being paid in exposure.

One of the best bits of advice I ever received was keeping a log of things you do over the year. It's invaluable for promotion applications and performance reviews as you will 100% forget cool stuff you did. At Glasgow, we have four criteria, so I log things down to make it easier later:

Out today in Teaching Statistics! Our paper on getting started in (statistics) education research, inspired by our 2024 @ukcots.bsky.social panel on the same. #StatsEd onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

What beautifully clear visualisation!

I love some of the points in this interview. Reproducibility is essential but a failure to replicate not necessarily a problem. They describe helpful and non-helpful sources, where you expect a rate of replication failure given uncertainty in the system. hdsr.mitpress.mit.edu/pub/6an6ppum...

As an aside, immensely funny that undergraduates are (rightly) paid to complete verification reports, since it's - you know - a job role that should be compensated 🤷‍♂️

Some really interesting details in here for supporting/training undergraduates to complete reproducibility checks. Given the new psych science initiative, I didn't realise some economics journals have been doing it systematically for years. www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Come work with us! We are recruiting for a 1 year fixed term Assistant Professor in Psychology @micireland.bsky.social has a beautiful campus right in the heart of Limerick city & MICPsych is a small but beautifully formed welcoming & supportive department www.mic.ul.ie/about-mic/va...

It was also the most ridiculous editorial experience I've ever witnessed, where it was published around two years after submission, despite being a registered report 🤷‍♂️

Led by Thomas Rhys Evans, we recently had this multi-site replication study published on unethical workplace behaviour: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....! It was a great opportunity to pool resources and get dissertation students involved.

This looks incredible! I absolutely adore it when there is an open online book but you can pay for a print copy if you want one.

We are very pleased to announce the 2025 Awards Winners for the Society for the Improvement of Psychological Science! Join us in celebrating the exceptional projects that have revolutionized the field of psychological science. buff.ly/rzTeLYL

Neat little article on using Quarto and creating course materials: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10..... Resonates nicely with our experiences creating all our workbooks in R Markdown / Quarto.

I completely forgot I wrote this in a past life to support creating tasks in OpenSesame osf.io/tm3z2 😅 I'm essentially looking for a longer version of PDF page 22 about creating/recreating tasks, so maybe I need to go back and write it myself...

Does anyone know of a (preferable accessible) guide to understanding / building cognitive tasks? You have software specific books like Building Experiments in PsychoPy, but I'm looking for more of a dummy's guide to tasks to think about trial structure, responses etc.

Really interesting post here. For me, statisticians teaching statistics to psychologists rarely goes well, while the average psychologist teaching statistics is borderline dangerous. I think the combination of data skills, statistics, and domain knowledge is the key thing and often one is missing.

We have issued a statement with @ima-maths.bsky.social & @londmathsoc.bsky.social on our growing concerns over university assessment integrity - especially with the rise of AI We urge universities to support a full range of assessment methods, including in-person exams

My comment about open research and qualitative methods is out! I argue that open research needs to take seriously the notion that "rigour" looks different for different methods and can learn from qualitative traditions. It feels very apt to be at #QMIP2025 for this publication day rdcu.be/evEpk

Also, I've wrangled being in Münster two days before the conference. So, if any of my German contacts have any recommendations on things to do/see near Münster or want to meet up, sag mir Bescheid!

Super excited to see the final programme for ESPLAT! The final conference in my workshop roadshow creating open education materials. No pressure being the only event on the morning prior to the welcome session 😅 www.uni-muenster.de/Psychologie/...

Ah this reminds me when I was a PhD at Coventry University. GTAs were employed and paid through a subsidiary so you couldn’t technically say you were employed by the university 🤷‍♂️

I cover research ethics / integrity in a lecture every year and you couldn't script the whole Ariely / Gino fiasco. It's unbelievably fun updating the timeline every year for another layer of shenanigans.

🧑‍🔬💰 PhD Scholarship open for a September start at #SussexUni Great opportunity if you're interested in sleep, biological rhythms and signals, physical & mental performance, or elite sports. Application deadline: 25th July Details at: realitybending.github.io/jobs/phd/ #Psychology #PhD

Here is my checklist summarising a small set of some of the simplest tasks you can do that have high potential to improve the reproducibility of your analysis code. This is based on my year of reproducibility reviews for the J. of Archaeological Science: authors.elsevier.com/a/1lHjN_6yUM... 🧪🏺

For some self-evaluation, really pleased with how it went and everyone had running Quarto documents with visualisation and wrangling skills. Just as too much for a 11-16:30 workshop as I had to cut the code review segment at the end!

I'm off to York St John to run an R workshop. We will cover reproducible documents using Quarto, data visualisation, and data wrangling. The materials are here if you're interested: bartlettje.github.io/Intro_R_Rese... I love running workshops, and I'm available for birthdays and bar mitzvahs!

Some interesting reflections but I sigh whenever someone mentions study hours and doesn’t acknowledge most students have to work part- to full-time now, given living costs are astronomical www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

🤷‍♂️

Really nice design and analysis on this paper by Bitzan et al. Great example of rigorous scholarship work but I find the comparison absolutely baffling. Particularly in a psychology department, I don't know why software *or* hand calculations would be the choice. doi.org/10.1177/1475...

Many articles are written to be published, not to be read. I propose this new badge to help me know when to save my breath.
