representativeness is a big issue for BTS. our argument is backed by a new study, from Cindel White & @michael.muthukrishna.com: "more highly educated ppl are significantly more culturally similar to WEIRD countries, such as the Anglosphere and Western Europe." www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Do big team science studies guarantee the global generalizability of findings? At the risk of not overgeneralizing ourselves, we reanalysed one big team science study on temporal discounting. Together with peerless @psforscher.bsky.social & @hcp4715.bsky.social www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Finally this long-last meta-research is done! We examine the demographics of subject from 1000 Chinese psych journal articles & 27 big-teams science. Findings: these participant are not representative of the 🇨🇳population, in terms of sex, age, & edu. @btscon.bsky.social @sakshighai.bsky.social

I'd like to re-up this paper we published last year bec I believe it makes a fundamental contribution to theoretical metascience but it is woefully underappreciated. We address a key challenge in estimating the reproducibility of a result: The distance of a replication study from the original. 1/n

Screenshot of an article abstract. Title: Statistics in Service of Metascience: Measuring Replication Distance with Reproducibility Rate Authors: Erkan O. Buzbas and Berna Devezer Abstract: Motivated by the recent putative reproducibility crisis, we discuss the relationship between the replicability of scientific studies, the reproducibility of results obtained in these replications, and the philosophy of statistics. Our approach focuses on challenges in specifying scientific studies for scientific inference via statistical inference and is complementary to classical discussions in the philosophy of statistics. We particularly consider the challenges in replicating studies exactly, using the notion of the idealized experiment. We argue against treating reproducibility as an inherently desirable property of scientific results, and in favor of viewing it as a tool to measure the distance between an original study and its replications. To sensibly study the implications of replicability and results reproducibility on inference, such a measure of replication distance is needed. We present an effort to delineate such a framework here, addressing some challenges in capturing the components of scientific studies while identifying others as ongoing issues. We illustrate our measure of replication distance by simulations using a toy example. Rather than replications, we present purposefully planned modifications as an appropriate tool to inform scientific inquiry. Our ability to measure replication distance serves scientists in their search for replication-ready studies. We believe that likelihood-based and evidential approaches may play a critical role towards building statistics that effectively serve the practical needs of science. Keywords: replication distance; reproducibility rate; philosophy of statistics; scientific inference; idealized experiment; minimum viable experiment

🌍It’s Open Science Week!🔓 From Oct. 20–26, we join the global community in celebrating open access to knowledge and research. 💡This year’s theme “Who Owns Our Knowledge?” invites us to reflect on how research & education are shared, who creates knowledge, & whose voices are recognized in shaping it.

Kind words from a recent connection “I have been going through your wonderful book. I am going to assign readings from your book to my students. I am currently teaching a course where the students conduct a research project with a client. There is so much here that is relevant to their process.”

Thank you @nancyrmack.bsky.social and @princetonneuro.bsky.social for a great explainer about our paper! pni.princeton.edu/news/2025/wh...

When a rat makes up its mind, these neuroscientists know

Scientists can now freeze-frame the exact moment an animal makes up their mind and commits to a choice — simply by looking at their brain activity
