Has transparency improved in clinical psychology? New cross sectional study from us (Bianca Kotoulas, Justine Blackwell & me). Adoption of transparent research practices has increased between 2012, 2018, & 2024, but aside from coi and funding disclosures, they remain uncommon osf.io/preprints/ps...

First PPDI Lab paper of the year, led by our amazing lab manager Sara Schwind (🚨she's on the PhD market next year🚨)! we reviewed the transparency practicesat BBI. #OpenScience 1/6 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Today, author @tomhardwicke.bsky.social argues "that without safeguards, Synchronous Robustness Reports could inadvertently create more confusion than clarity about robustness. The reviewer, among other things, suggests distinguishing between different types of reports. 👇 Read it now on MetaROR

Two days ago, the Australian Research Council (ARC) and the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) released a joint statement about promoting research integrity. Let's hold them to it! www.arc.gov.au/news-and-pub...

I just created a series of seven deep-dive videos about AI, which I've posted to youtube and now here. 😊 Targeted to laypeople, they explore how LLMs work, what they can do, and what impacts they have on learning, well-being, disinformation, the workplace, the economy, and the environment.

New post! "Valuing the Process vs. the Product in Research," in which I try to describe some of the tensions around using GenAI/LLMs in scientific research, and why it can be so difficult to have productive conversations on the topic. getsyeducated.substack.com/p/valuing-th...

Australia: NHMRC, MRFF adopt open science policy (free to read): www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-aust...

Just out—a piece I wrote a piece for the APS Observer (@psychscience.bsky.social) in which I share recommendations and resources for running a research lab at a small, liberal arts college. I hope it helps others in the same boat! www.psychologicalscience.org/publications...

I wrote a blog for the Meta-Research Center expressing my infinite frustration about not getting data. What else is new, you might think? Well, I added an extra layer of annoyance directed at the journals who do NOTHING to enforce promised data sharing. metaresearch.nl/blog/2026/2/...

📅 Mark your calendars for #SIPS2027! The 2027 SIPS conference, organized in collaboration with the Association for Interdisciplinary Meta-Research and Open Science @aimosinc.bsky.social, will be held in November at the University of Melbourne, Australia. We are looking forward to seeing you there!

Call for entries 📣 The international €350K #EinsteinFoundationAward honors researchers and institutions across all scientific disciplines working to advance #research quality and integrity. Deadline: April 30, 2026 Please share! 🌍 ➡️ award.einsteinfoundation.de #OpenScience #reproducibility

What should psychology journals do about this? What’s a reasonable policy/standard to apply to research using online data collection methods?

We're excited to share the application for the next Research Transparency and Reproducibility Training (RT2)! Join us May 19 - 21, 2026 in Berkeley for hands-on training in open science tools and methods. Apply by Feb 8: cega.submittable.com/submit/34383...

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! 🎉🥂🌟

“In this case we are up against the seductive allure of claims we’d like to believe are true but aren’t – that tobacco is really not that harmful, at least not by itself, or that we can prevent and cure cancer with some kind of ‘mind work,’ and so on."

Nominations for the UKRN Dorothy Bishop Prize 2026 have opened! Named after @deevybee.bsky.social, the prize, first awarded in 2022, celebrates the contributions of early career researchers to research improvement. Nominations close 18 January 2026. #AcademicSky #Research

Preparing this talk gave me an opportunity to reflect on what lessons I've learned from psychology's replication crisis and credibility revolution, and what advice I would have for other fields. We've come a long way! Video: youtu.be/_vb1CNwC3CM?... Slides : osf.io/cuj62/files/...

Following up from @drjbeaudry.bsky.social's wonderful recap email yesterday, here is the group photo from #AIMOS2025. If you couldn't make this this year, we hope to see you next year in beautiful Wellington!

“The articles in AMPPS offer, month in and month out, the invitation to practice aligning your values, intentions, and actions to do less scientific harm and reach for the methodological ceiling” Grateful to @dsbarra.bsky.social for continuing what @profsimons.bsky.social & co started at AMPPS!

METRICS is accepting applications for the 2026–27 postdoctoral fellowship in meta-research at Stanford. Deadline: Feb 15, 2026. Start date will be around Oct 1, 2026 (+/- 2 month flexibility). See: metrics.stanford.edu/postdoctoral... #MetaResearch #postdoc

Congratulations to @simine.com for winning the Einstein Foundation Individual Award! 🎉 A well-deserved recognition for her seminal efforts to improve scientific rigor, which includes instituting detailed checks for errors and computational reproducibility at Psychological Science.

Science is a collective effort, but @simine.com is a singular force. She is an exemplary model for all of us to follow in her commitment and action to improving science, on every dimension. She is so deserving of the award. The only uncertainty is whether the award deserves her!

This is such wonderful news. Simine has done so much for advocating for robust, fair, transparent practices throughout psychology and beyond 👏

@simine.com has an astonishing combination of intellectual humility, willingness to publicly state unpopular opinions in pursuit of truth, and thoughtfulness about how to deploy that truth-telling for maximum positive impact. Bravo Simine!!

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 🥳

My amazing friend and MetaMelb co-director @simine.com has won the 2025 Einstein Foundation Award! @unimelb.bsky.social @psychunimelb.bsky.social and @replicats.bsky.social are so lucky to have you

Congratulations to @simine.com well deserved winner of the Einstein Foundation Individual Award for Promoting Quality in Research 2025 🎉 www.einsteinfoundation.de/en/media/pre...

Synchronous Robustness Reports could explore implications of different analytical choices – but they could still suffer from bias. Hardwicke argues that preregistration is crucial to prevent it. @tomhardwicke.bsky.social
