PS is excited to announce the launch of "Individual Differences in Cognition” (IDIC), an open-access journal on research in cognitive psychology, science, and neuroscience. Co-Editors-in-Chief are Andrew R.A. Conway & Michael J. Kane. Manuscripts accepted this spring. More information coming soon!

If you’ve ever attempted a meta-analysis, you’ll know that authors generally do a poor job reporting statistics. If you do this well, you’ll improve your chances of your work being included in a future meta-analysis.

Psychological Assessment is seeking its new editor, to start receiving manuscripts in early 2027 to prepare for issues published in 2028: www.apa.org/pubs/journal... Deadline for accepting nominations is Monday, January 12, 2026, at editorsearch.apa.org @apajournals.bsky.social

I’ve long used FiveThirtyEight’s interactive “Hack Your Way To Scientific Glory” to illustrate the idea of p-hacking when I teach statistics. But ABC/Disney killed the site earlier this month :( So I made my own with #rstats and Observable and #QuartoPub ! stats.andrewheiss.com/hack-your-way/

Take your factors for a spin tomorrow…

I cannot emphasize enough, the importance of consistently naming any variables that you plan to combine/compare across forms/time. So that when it comes time for an urgent analysis, you don't have to spend gobs of time mapping and renaming variables before you can begin that analysis. ❤️

Roy Baumeister called ego depletion "one of the most replicable findings in social psychology." As someone who spent 20 years studying it—and ultimately had to admit it wasn't real—I have to respectfully disagree. Here's my perspective of what went so wrong.
