In our new tutorial, @meanwhileina.bsky.social and I walk you through meaningful hypothesis testing using a less known form of calculating Bayes Factor. osf.io/preprints/ps... People transitioning to Bayes often wonder how to decide if an effect is meaningful or not. Here you go... 1/🧵
Happy to share the first version of my textbook "Quantitative Data Analysis for Linguists in R". stefanocoretta.github.io/qdal/ Comments and suggestions welcome! (on the GitHub repo: github.com/stefanocoret...) The textbook takes you from 0 to basic stat modelling with Bayesian regression.

Dear Linguist List community, I am conducting a survey as part of my research on emotions. If your first language is English or Japanese, please consider taking less than 10 minutes to answer it. It’s anonymous and there’s a small gift at the end! You can find the English survey here https://tinyurl.com/3amdd6pc and the Japanese survey here https://tinyurl.com/y3xua6t7 THANK YOU!

A surprising number of data sets in linguistics do not converge with lmer() when you include random slopes in the model. I don’t think this is about the failure to use an optimizer (btw, it shouldn’t be necessary *all the time*). What works and what doesn’t? An example… 1/n
