I (Geoff) recently came across an article published in 2014 with the title Six Persistent Research Misconceptions. All six are important, but it’s no. 6 that would be most familiar to anyone reading ITNS: Misconception 6. Significance testing is useful…
Introduction to the New Statistics
The online community and blog for ITNS
Month: April 2017
Studying statistical cognition is essential for improving rigor and reproducibility. You can participate! Here's a link to a short study of statistical cognition: https://t.co/EKAAdbkQUN
This study is being conducted by @lonnibesancon and @jouni_helske .

Finally had time to check out @russpoldrack on reproducibility in neuroscience:
“First, we must acknowledge that we have a problem, and that all of our careers have benefitted from the research practices that we now realize to be questionable.”
Amen.

Thanks, Nick! It was great to visit with the MCB grad students and postdocs. Lots of energy for planning strong research.
Went to a phenomenal seminar about sample-size planning by Bob Calin-Jageman @TheNewStats. I have a LOT of work to do in how to plan experiments and determine relevance (not P values!) of results. He would make a great speaker at any department! Check out https://t.co/U5Ztw630a0
New preprint.
Adversarial team collaborated to specify when facial feedback effects should most reliably emerge. 2 pilots revealed evidence for the facial feedback hypothesis. Next, 18 labs (17 countries) will test whether these findings are replicable.

Oh sh-t. Why can't we have nice things?
The study showing handwritten notes are superior to typed notes fails to replicate https://t.co/2RdBOwVh9O
In my first pre-print, working with @lakens we present 2 methods from clinical/health research & show how they can be used in basic psych research to determine the smallest noticeable change/difference & thus the SESOI for research questions interested in noticeable change. 1/2 https://t.co/udPb9UomF1
