Preregistration 101

By Geoff Cumming Posted on December 24, 2016 Posted in Open Science No Comments

Of all Open Science practices, researchers often find preregistration most strange, and perhaps most puzzling and challenging. Of the three Open Science badges, the Prereg badge is the rarest, at least so far. “Does it really make much difference?” “But …

By Geoff Cumming Posted on December 18, 2016 Posted in Open Science, Replication No Comments

Get into the discussion – The Psych Methods and Practices Group on Facebook

By Bob C-J Posted on December 7, 2016 Posted in Open Science No Comments

Robert Ross pointed me towards PsychMAP, the Psychology Methods and Practices Discussion Group hosted on Facebook.  It’s a very strong group; you can easily become completely absorbed scrolling through the posts and responses. https://www.facebook.com/groups/psychmap/  

SIPS: Getting better all the time

By Geoff Cumming Posted on December 5, 2016 Posted in Open Science No Comments

The Beatles sang about “getting so much better all the time”. So perhaps Getting Better by Paul McCartney and John Lennon should be the theme song of Open Science? (Although some of the lyrics would need to be expunged…) Bob …

NHST: The double whammy!

By Geoff Cumming Posted on December 2, 2016 Posted in Applied research, NHST No Comments

When I gave a talk at the HFESA conference, I started of course with an example of the damage done by NHST. My chosen article describes three examples in the field of road safety of how reliance on statistical significance …

By Bob C-J Posted on December 1, 2016 Posted in Open Science, Replication, Stats tools No Comments

It feels like every day there is a new development in the Open Science movement.  It’s overwhelming, but exciting.  Here’s a site that I only just stumbled on: Kaggle.  It provides high-quality curated data sets for statistical exploration.  It also …

This kid pyramid scheme is wildfire in our neighborhood this week.

I guess we are in the ‘teach our kids tough lessons’ phase of quarantine?

Come teach stats with me in the fall (and spring)!

Dominican University is hiring an adjunct instructor of psych for 1 or 2 section of Stats/Methods I. Fall is online synchronous, MWF daytime for 1h40min (10min break in middle).

A great example of how you can prove negligible effects and why it is so important to do so. Otherwise, how would we ever identify boundary conditions or refine theories? @adamcchang

Some studies do replicate, including this interesting association between mathematical operations and body position (+ to the right, - to the left). Plus this paper has a detailed tutorial on a Bayesian analysis of a factorial design in JASP. Is +/right universal?

Just posted to @PsyArXiv -- a new paper with my students Keelyn Brennan and Michaela Rutledge:

"Arithmetic operation signs elicit spatial associations: A confirmatory Bayesian analysis"

If you teach ugrad science, this paper has something for you: https://tinyurl.com/juliopaper

Though focused on neuroscience, it:
* summarizes research on good science pedagogy
* explains why good teaching alone is not enough to confront discrimination
* tells admin how to support us

Because everything that can happen in 2020 does happen, a squirrel joined my stats zoom yesterday (from a 2nd floor window!)

If my students remember one thing about this semester, it will now probably be this squirrel. Wish I had somehow connected it to a stats concept.

Dear rec letter portal developers:

Who approved adding the "end of knowing" date field?

Is this because I am writing letters from the afterlife? That would make sense, because it feels like I am in hell.
