I need #rstats meme help. I've just updated my MSc book and all of the chapters start with a (probably outdated) meme except chapter 10 (next steps). Any ideas? psyteachr.github.io/reprores-v5

Excited for today’s seminar by @juliehulme-psyc.bsky.social about the experiences of disabled and neurodivergent students.

Time is running out to register for our pre-symposium workshop and Meta Research Symposium event at Paul Meehl Graduate School Check the information and registration links below: paulmeehlschool.github.io/workshops/

This fall I will have a blind student in my coding class for the first time. Do any other instructors or visually impaired coders have advice beyond making sure my book has useful alt-text for the images? #rstats #accessibility Class book: psyteachr.github.io/reprores-v5/

Our contribution to an upcoming book on teaching open science was "how to teach reproducible research". There are plenty of lesson plans or individual courses out there but less on how you can build skills across a whole degree. osf.io/preprints/ps...

I have discovered the most delicious oatmeal topping ever. Stir in a spoon of biscoff spread and top with flaky sea salt (measure with your heart, it really depends how you're feeling abut sweet vs salty on a given day).

Happy to share the first article of my PhD journey at @uofglasgow.bsky.social and @socialai.bsky.social @debruine.bsky.social, Prof Stumpf and I reviewed ~150 articles from 10 disciplines about trust in AI and synthesised how it forms in affective human-AI relationships: doi.org/10.1016/j.ch...

What was I supposed to do this morning? Make comments on a draft of the Papercheck paper. What did I actually do? Write an R function to add DOIs from OpenAlex to a .bib file (the bibtex citations you get from google scholar bizarrely don't have DOIs)

I've started 6 chapters in the past 3 days. It's very draft content, but I'd love feedback on whether this is the sort of thing people might use and what you'd want out of it. What metadata about each version would you want to be able to decide if a version is good for a lesson you're planning?

I'm putting together some datasets relevant to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (for teaching purposes) and wondered if anyone has suggestions for interesting datasets on these themes. You can see what I'm aiming at in the first chapter. psyteachr.github.io/sdg-data/

Am I being dumb, or is the only way to retrieve info about an entity like osf.io/4i578 using the OSF API to iteratively check if it is a node, file, preprint, registration, user, etc. until I find one that doesn't return a 404? If this is the actual case, please someone at @cos.io help 🙏

Does anyone from @cos.io know how to access info on the API about nodes you don't own with an active view-only link? My test link is: osf.io/ybm3c/?view_... But following the API docs at developer.osf.io#operation/no... I can't access info using api.osf.io/v2/nodes/ybm... unless logged in

The first version of the open science blog archive is complete, with 3530 posts from 52 blogs. Browse them in the online Shiny app: shiny.ieis.tue.nl/open_science... All blog posts are ordered chronologically. Have fun exploring part of the open science history in psychology!

If you just got an email from APA encouraging you to come to this session, YOU SHOULD! Because the "Open Science and Methodology panel member" is ME! Come say hi! Learn about registered reports, and other awesome open science things at APA!

This is going to be a very real challenge for all open content providers to handle. I'd love to hear from others in the preprint space about how we're addressing these challenges.

I'd really like reporters to get some Heterodox Academy types on the record about their role in gutting American academia Could start with the social psych people and reviewers and editors who published this

Replication Crisis xkcd.com/3117/

New blog post: Easily download files from the Open Science Framework with Papercheck daniellakens.blogspot.com/2025/07/easi... Downloading all files in an OSF project can be a hassle. Not anymore, with Papercheck! Just run: osf_file_download("6nt4v")

I love this podcast, but you know how things get when someone talks about your area of expertise? Imperfect (but not terrible) coverage of the replication crisis, but saved by entirely correct takes about my least favourite face research grifter (IYKYK)

Happy Glasgow Pride! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷🩵🤍🤎🖤 (The #NoPrideInGenocide event at Kinning Park is fab)

I'm off to York St John to run an R workshop. We will cover reproducible documents using Quarto, data visualisation, and data wrangling. The materials are here if you're interested: bartlettje.github.io/Intro_R_Rese... I love running workshops, and I'm available for birthdays and bar mitzvahs!

And news write up of our project on Distributed Peer Review, presented yesterday at #metascience2025, in Science today https://www.science.org/content/article/should-grant-applicants-judge-competitors-proposals-unorthodox-approach-gets-two-real

As one of my favourite colleagues Etienne Roesch just whispered to me in response to a #MetaScience2025 speaker suggesting AI could act as an additional grant reviewer: A👏I👏is👏not👏an👏analytic👏tool

Outstanding commitment by @marialep.bsky.social president of @erc.europa.eu to provide data to researchers who want to assess ERC policies (And also passionate defence of incremental research 👏) #MetaScience2025

In the Qs, @alexrushforth.bsky.social makes the great point that scientific societies can help research assessment reform by moving away from individual awards and towards awards for teams and infrastructure contributions (@improvingpsych.org does a great job of this) #MetaScience2025

I’m hoping we can get papercheck developed to the level soon that it can appear in this company of services #MetaScience2025 scienceverse.github.io/papercheck/a...

Anastasia Garnick from @convergentresearch.bsky.social presents the “gap map” and how Focussed Research Organisations (FROs) can help #MetaScience2025 www.gap-map.org

I ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🩷🤍🩵🤎🖤 this take on the tension caused by involving big corporate sponsors in #MetaScience2025. I fall pretty firmly in the “dismantle existing power systems” camp for both, but can also see the wisdom in strategic working with power

There was no bad intent, but it reduces credibility if you say you “asked GPT” and then recite a hallucination that @psysciacc.bsky.social was essential in resourcing the ManyLabs studies (which happened before the PSA was founded) #MetaScience2025

#metascience2025 peeps, if you know the name of the ?-er who got shut down, please DM. I'd like to reach out and thank him and show my support. Marginalized communities will pay the price of this highly privileged technology and it's worth making space for the convo even it's tangential to the conf.

Two useful perspectives on the comment/question we’ll all be talking about after the #MetaScience2025 AI panel:

So nice to see the results of a @improvingpsych.org hackathon matured to a paper! Jane Herbert presents a Bestiary of Questionable Research Practices in Psychology osf.io/preprints/ps... #MetaScience2025

Both optimistic and pessimistic conclusions from @tomhardwicke.bsky.social #MetaScience2025 Open practices are increasing, but not very fast. doi.org/10.1177/2515...

@luiseee.bsky.social presents fascinating data from the World Bank Reproducibilty Initiative #MetaScience2025 reproducibility.worldbank.org/index.php/home

Key takeaways from @davidvalenta.bsky.social • Al-assisted teams do not outperform human-only teams • Some Al-led teams successfully assessed #ComputationalReproducibility • Al is not reliable - a significant human component is still required #MetaScience2025

Conclusions from a systematic replication of 30 highly cited AI studies (Odd Erik Gundersen) #MetaScience2025 arxiv.org/abs/2412.17859

The question I’d love to ask this morning’s #MetaScience2025 panel is: How do we, as a community of metascientists, prevent grifters from weaponising the issues we discuss?
