Excited to share that our paper with @mhennecke.bsky.social was published yesterday!   We asked: How well do others really know our self-control? Turns out, surprisingly well - but it depends on what they’re judging, the life domain, and how close they are to us. doi.org/10.1016/j.jr...

The Center for Open Science recently announced its decision to phase out OSF Projects. We want to share how those changes will affect PsyArXiv, a psychology preprint server run and maintained by SIPS volunteers but hosted on the OSF platform. improvingpsych.org/2026/08/11/w...

What Researchers Need to Know about PsyArXiv Given Upcoming Changes to OSF Projects

In just a few short days (August 15th, 2026), PsyArXiv – the community preprint server for psychology – turns 10! 🥳 Over the past decade, our community has published over 58,000 preprin…

Over the next several months, we will phase out some popular OSF features. These changes do not affect current public content, which remains safe and accessible. We have prepared support material to help users adapt. I am very sorry for the disruption to your work. Please read this post for details.

OSF Changes | Center for Open Science

We are preparing substantial changes to OSF that will reduce its functionality, focus OSF on its unique strengths, and move toward an integrated model with complementary services. As part of that shif...

Big changes ahead: the OSF will stop support sharing (new) data, materials and code. Feels like the end of an era!

COS is announcing important changes to the Open Science Framework (OSF). OSF Projects—used for project collaboration, file mgmt, & storage—is being phased out as an active workspace over the next 6 months. This change does not affect persistence & accessibility of existing public projects. (🧵1/2)

Congratulations to the project “Core principles of responsible generative AI usage in research,” which received🏆2026 SIPS commendation! This is an expert-consensus framework that helps assess, document, and report whether the use of GenAI aligns with enduring principles of responsible GenAI use.

I'm very much calling out my own field here, psychology, more than any other field. We've largely ignored social and environmental determinants of mental health in our theories, models, prevention, and intervention efforts.

And so after a very brief hiatus, version 0.7.0 of "learning statistics with R" exists. Full rebuild in quarto, stylistic fixes, "epilogues from 2026" to comment on how the world changed since original publication, and as an added bonus, no longer misgenders the author learningstatisticswithr.com

Grateful to have had the opportunity to attend the very first edition of the theory building summer school organised by the theory methods society at university of Amsterdam! It was an inspiring week full of exciting approaches to building and improving theories in psychology.

Excellent news! Nature is expanding Registered Reports to all the fields in which they publish! A great result by all those proposing this strong solution to publication bias and selective reporting (and getting expert feedback before data collection)! www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Wonderful work, talk, and database by Björn. Highly recommended.
