An Emotion-Enhanced Forest Plot
Sometimes, of course, we can be delighted to find evidence that an effect is zero-to-negligible. …as if good Open Science researchers would ever let their emotions intrude on their work.Geoff

[Update 7/4/2020 – Added reference to preprint on Cohen’s d for paired designs and put code in an actual code block] Lots of research questions boil down to estimating the difference between two means (Mdiff = Mgroup_of_interest – Mreference_group). This …
Bob has tweeted, but it’s worth a quick post. His 90 min new-statistics zoomfest was part of SIPS2020. More than 100 folks, almost all staying to the end. Excited and positive chat all the way through. Yes, a 5am start …
Just had an update about Fiona’s big project to study how well researchers can judge the chance that some result can be replicated. She and the team are doing well, but need a last push during July to meet their …

A recent viewpoint article (free download) in JAMA argues that decisions should not be based on mere p value criteria, but need “consideration of the outcome in terms of effect size and accompanying CIs, [and] placing the findings from the …
I (Bob) love large-scale collaborative projects (Many Labs, Many Babies, Psych Science Accelerator, etc.).ย I like the teamwork involved.ย I like the careful deliberation over study materials.ย I like the large sample sizes and the hopes of investigating how psychological …
In brief: Two studies provide yet more evidence that researchers make poorer interpretations when they focus on statistical significance testing and its .05 threshold. Statisticians make similar errors, although in some situations to a lesser extent than do other researchers. …
