Congratulations to @bethclarke.bsky.social on her PhD graduation!! It’s been amazing watching you become the incredible scholar that you are, thanks for letting me come along for the ride! You’re the best! 🎉🥂🌟

1. Transparency is necessary for credibility 2. Transparency is hard to change 3. Require transparency* 4. Transparency is not magic 5. Journals are part of problem 6. Expect more from journals 7. Peer review is not magic 8. A crisis can look a lot like „normal“ science 9. Meta-analysis is not magic

We're very excited to see the first recommendation by PCI Psych out now in Peer Community Journal! 🎉 Not only can you read the full article for free below, you can see the full peer review history and editorial decisions. It cost the authors $0. This is what scientific publishing should be.

🏆 Individual: @simine.com, psychologist at @unimelb.bsky.social & editor-in-chief of Psychological Science, is recognized for pioneering methodological rigor, reproducibility & collaborative research, driving initiatives such as @improvingpsych.org & the journal Collabra @ucpress.bsky.social. (2/5)

Parabéns à Iniciativa Brasileira de Reprodutibilidade, nosso projeto-mãe e membro da Rede, pela conquista do Einstein Foundation Award for Promoting Quality in Research na categoria instiucional!

I think it's hard to overstate how much Simine has changed research practices and standards in psychology for the better, despite at times massive resistance from powerful parties with a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. Very well deserved award imho 🥳

🚧 OSF experienced a temporary slowdown today due to a surge of automated bot traffic. This overwhelmed parts of the production environment that didn't yet have the right safeguards in place, causing performance issues. The underlying issue has been addressed, & further protections are now in place.

This. If you can't make an informed decision based on the reviewers' comments and your own thoughtful assessment, you shouldn't be an editor.

Please help us, #MetaScience community! It's time to decide on a forever name for papercheck (scienceverse.github.io/papercheck/). We don't want it to be confused with papercheck.ai, and we plan to check other research artifacts like repo contents, data, code, and prereg. Any suggestions?

Dear PsyArXiv users! The OSF platform, which hosts PsyArXiv, has updated the PsyArXiv user interface! Unfortunately, some key moderation functions need repairs after the upgrade. This will delay some moderation decisions this week. 🔧 Thank you for your patience!

Have you done (or are you planning) a replication of a social-personality finding? Then submit a poster or flash talk on it to the virtual SIPS@SPSP preconference, happening online on February 24, 2026. 🔗 Find out more:

It has been an amazing experience to be President of @improvingpsych.org for the past year. There aren't many societies that would engage early career researchers in leadership, but SIPS is very special 🧡✨
