Very pleased to share this, out today - we highlight a shift in how misinformation is used not primarily to misinform, but to strategically influence public debate www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

New in Cortex: Theta band activity during event-file retrieval is influenced by stimulus salience in the preceding action episode. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Psychologische Forschung zeigt, dass Einsamkeit Auswirkungen haben kann, die weit über das subjektive Gefühl des Alleinseins hinausreichen. Mehr zu diesem ernstzunehmenden Risikofaktor auf unserer WissKomm-Seite! #Psychologie #Einsamkeit #PsychischeGesundheit #MentalHealth #PsychologischeForschung

Excited for #OHBM2026 in Bordeaux! I'm presenting at an oral session on arcuate fascicle maturation in 1-year-olds (Monday, June 15 at 4:45 pm) and a poster (Monday, June 15 at 12:30 & Tuesday, June 16 at 12:30). Come say hi, happy to chat about infant brain development! #OHBM #HumanBrainMapping

Research on “the testing effect” routinely conflates direct and forward testing effects: A meta-analysis of testing effects with free recall. doi.org/10.1037/xlm0.... New paper by Annabel D. Gereau and Neil W. Mulligan in JEP:LMC.

Come see us at #PuG2026! Charlotte Grosse Wiesmann (@milestoneslab.bsky.social) and I will be presenting the symposium on "Memory, Space, and Perspective: Internally Constructed Neural Representations in the Developing Mind", today 4pm in HS 14!

Paying peer reviewers works. Expanded Fast & Fair experiment @biologyopen.bsky.social: • 5.5 vs 37.7 working days to decision with reviews • ~3 vs ~9 reviewer invitations per manuscript • no reduction in editor-assessed review quality • similar acceptance rates www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

We have two job openings in my lab currently — for a postdoc (100% FTE some teaching four years) and a postdoc/phd student (75% FTE no teaching three years). Check them out at www.uni-luebeck.de/aktuelles/be...

New opinion article: Explaining SCAN connectivity and hyperconnectivity through psychological theories of perception-action binding. doi.org/10.3389/fnhu...

New preprint: The causal role of β-oscillations in maintaining perception-action representations. doi.org/10.64898/202...

New paper in Nature. The more a government controls its domestic media, the more it dominates AI training data, the more pro-regime outputs we get from AI. By scraping the open web, LLMs are unwittingly laundering state-coordinated narratives into seemingly objective answers.

Updated my textbook with a cleaner lay-out, better accessibility, and eight new interactive visualizations made completely in html (such as this illustration of the positive predictive value). lakens.github.io/statistical_...

Many of us were taught experiments are for testing hypotheses. In Ch 1 of Experimentology, our free, open methods textbook, my coauthors and I argue differently: experiments are for estimating the magnitude of causal effects. This reframing has important consequences. 🧵 experimentology.io

Fellow Europeans, did you know about this alternative to COS/OSF? They have upload templates for the usual academic formats, but also data and even Bachelor's /Master's theses. www.psycharchives.org/en

Selecting an effect size for power analysis is hard. Many researchers fall back on Cohen's thresholds, but they have no empirical basis and vary wildly by field. Our new paper offers a better option: field-specific effect size distributions built from meta-analytic data doi.org/10.3758/s134...

🦊🧠 Hello Bluesky! We are the Milestones of Neurocognitive Development Lab, a joint research group at @mpicbs.bsky.social and the University of Technology Nuremberg (UTN). Led by Prof. Charlotte Grosse Wiesmann, we explore the neural and cognitive milestones of the developing mind!

'to treat peer review as a throughput problem is to misunderstand what is at stake. Review is not simply a production stage in the research pipeline; it is one of the few remaining spaces where the scientific community talks to itself.' 1/3

New post: replicating Loftus and Palmer at scale. rolfzwaan.substack.com/p/memory-mis...

Happy to share that our shared first-author paper with @febedemeyer.bsky.social is now published open access in @jcgntn.bsky.social 🔗 bit.ly/4bt2D8Q We developed and administered an open-source cognitive control test battery with often used tasks (bit.ly/4ql9gyP) in 247 students. Key insights in 🧵

still one of the best explanations of principal component analysis (pca), explained at different levels from layman to the more math inclined stats.stackexchange.com/a/140579/132...

Just kicked off the Kyiv Winter School of Memory 2026 with over 70 participants of different universities in Ukraine. So rewarding to see this slightly crazy idea become a reality. Thanks to @linniplidot.bsky.social and Karine Malysheva (National University of Kyiv) for organising this with me.
