If you're a #visionscience or #psychscisky person starting to think about student dissertation projects, you might be interested in our visual search/foraging experiment code at github.com/scienceanna/.... You can configure everything via CSV files (lots of options!) and it all runs on Psychopy.

@riadsala.bsky.social and I have been spending a long time thinking about modelling visual foraging. v2 model glow up: 1) it can account for individual diffs in lots of summary stats 2) it can deal with 'outliers' really nicely and 3) it should be easier to use! osf.io/preprints/ps...

A little pre-print for your Monday morning #visionscience: www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-6.... This was a fun, if slightly wacky project... would love to hear any thoughts/critiques!! @riadsala.bsky.social

Post SVG ice cream with @riadsala.bsky.social and @tsawallis.bsky.social! Lots of excellent science in the sun this weekend :) #visionscience

Good news: we've extended the deadline for SVG 2025 to 28th Feb so even more people can join us! #VisionScience #PsychSciSky

Scottish Vision Group 2025 website is now live: sites.google.com/view/svg2025/. It's one of my fave conferences - small, friendly, excellent scenery. Join us 4th-6th April 2025! #VisionScience #PsychSciSky @riadsala.bsky.social

A little paper about foraging with @riadsala.bsky.social. I enjoyed this RR process a lot - getting feedback at stage 1 is so helpful. Also, big shout out to all the FAB students involved in this project. royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/... #VisionScience #AcademicSky

Happy news for a Friday - the first RR I've been involved in is out: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti.... We did some pretty nerdy modelling trying to replicate (and extend?) Target Contrast Theory. Thanks to our infinitely patient reviewers and Editor over the last 2 years... #VisionScience
