Fully-funded PhD studentship to work on children’s financial literacy. Deadline end of June. https://ufncollaboratory.ac.uk/childrens-financial-literacy/

If you haven't been looking recently at the Open Encyclopedia of Cognitive Science (oecs.mit.edu), here's your reminder that we are a free, open access resource for learning about the science of mind. Today we are launching our new Thematic Collections to organize our growing set of articles!

🚨New Preprint alert! ANS and spatial skills are the same thing! doi.org/10.31234/osf... We aimed to explore how the Approximate Numbers Sense (ANS) and spatial skills related over time, but instead found that they are the same underlying construct.

Reminder to join us on Monday (February 24) at 11am ET / 8am PT / 4pm GMT / 5pm CET for our research article discussion on math cognition in context!

Removal of indigenous children justified by the use of psychometric tests that are unfit for non-Danish caregivers. Colonial mechanisms are perpetuated in insidious ways. 'The psychologist who did the test spoke Danish, the mother’s language is Kalaallisut' www.theguardian.com/world/2024/n...

Come to our wokshop ""Relations between space, language, and numbers" in Tübingen in April next year to beautiful Tübingen and spread the news! Merry Xmas anda happy new year to everybody!

Happy to announce our workshop "Relations between space, language, and numbers" in Tübingen in April next year! 😍 Feel free to share: t.ly/Db4BF Hope to see many of you there! ☺️

Would you be a great mentor? Sign-up as a mentor to the MCLS mentoring scheme today. You can be a mentor at all career stages!

See our new resources for educators and policymakers about spatial reasoning and maths ⬇️

Reminder: We're still taking applications. The deadline will be here before you know it!

⭐️ postdoc ad ⭐️ I’m hiring a postdoc to work on our bilingual (Spanish/English) math language e-book project! careers.purdue.edu/job/West-Laf... Please share with anyone who may be interested. First round of review starts January 15th. Position is for two years and pays $70,000/year.

I will likely have to miss MCLS and IMBES in 2024. Any recommendations of great conferences (num cog, cogn development) that are not in July?

Numerical/mathematical cognition list ⬇️

Are you or do you know a person that posts about numerical cognition? Please suggest them to us so we can add them to the numerical cognition list! Also, pin the numerical cognition list so you don't miss anything: bsky.app/profile/did:...

"PISA 2022 saw an unprecedented drop in performance. Compared to 2018, mean perf. fell by 15 points in maths, equivalent to 3/4 of a school year. 1 in 4 15-y-o is now a low performer. The decline in maths is 3 times greater than any previous consecutive change." www.oecd-ilibrary.org/education/pi...

Spread our flyer to make the MCLS Trainee Community larger! Send it to trainees in the field of numerical cognition and math education who might not know us yet :) (Flyer in different languages: drive.google.com/drive/folder...)

This term I have been overwhelmed by admin, management and meetings. It has sucked all the joy out of my job. In an attempt to improve things I’m doing a paper reading advent calendar. I’ll read and share one paper a day* from now until Christmas. See ⬇️ (*sometimes a skim read and not weekends!)

I had a great time leading these sessions and I'm excited for the next steps! Find out more about PCI here peercommunityin.org and join the mailing list to stay in the loop -- I promise not to send more than a few emails a month! groups.google.com/g/pci-psycho... #PsychSciSky #AcademicPublishing

The CogStat adaptation of Danielle Navarro’s Learning Statistics with R (by Róbert Fodor) has seen its second edition. Enjoy! learningstatisticswithcogstat.com

If you are starting to work in academia, do yourself a favour and learn to write reproducible manuscripts (for my workflow, see lakens.github.io/statistical_...). It will save you a lot of time and stress in the future.

Common misconceptions around regressions with interactions are causing us to systematically over-detect treatment effects! Especially in multi-armed RCTs!! Amazing work by @marome1.bsky.social, Karthik and Kaspar! Published in Restat & full text here: mauricio-romero.com/pdfs/papers/...

Open data sharing is a good thing; Protecting participant privacy is a good thing. Sometimes these two good things are in conflict. Our new preprint introduces a decision-making framework and open source tools to help share as openly as possible and as closed as necessary. osf.io/preprints/me...
