What explainer/resource do you direct researchers to when they conclude the null hypothesis is true on the basis of not rejecting it? It ought to mention that possible solutions include equivalence testing (or just interpreting the confidence interval) and Bayes factors. Maybe just "ask AI".

How preprints accelerate the time to first citation of the subsequent journal articles? - Scientometrics

This study examines whether journal articles with preprints are cited more rapidly than those without preprints. We construct a matched sample of articles published in the same journal, year, volume, and issue to ensure comparability between articles with and without preprints. Survival analysis is employed to estimate the temporal advantage of articles with preprints in receiving the first citation relative to those without preprints, while OLS regression quantifies this advantage in terms of days. The key findings are as follows: (1) articles with preprints have a 35.2% higher hazard of receiving their first citation than those without preprints; (2) among articles that received at least one citation during the observation period, articles with preprints were associated with a 69.042-day shorter time to first citation than comparable articles without preprints; (3) both early visibility and the additional dissemination channels of preprint platforms are associated with a shorter time to first citation, with early visibility showing a relatively stronger association. Notably, these estimates reflect conditional associations rather than causal effects, given the observational design.

New Jingle assessment: we show that the "Perspective Taking Protocol" has very poor reliability and near-zero convergent validity with other nominal measures of emotional and spatial perspective taking, empathy, and theory of mind. w/ @malte.the100.ci

In the last 2 years I (and our lovely collaborators) have been rather obsessively working on Metacheck - a tool to automatically check best practices in papers. In this RIOTS summerschool talk, I walk you through what the tool can do, and future plans www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWd2...

Had the privilege to give a #SAA2026 keynote today. Showed early results from WARN-D ML competition, & EMA'd the audience on how different parts of the data—Baseline, EMA, Wearables, & Followup—contributed to predicting depression onset, with live leaderboard & two prizes. Got 220 live responses:

This practice is happening on a large scale! :( Confuses me that it's called a mill, though,which sounds like something organised, when it seems to just be individual researchers accepting a lot of review requests and asking to be cited.

· #AcademicSky · #AcademicPublishing · #ReviewMills · Review mills — researchers who write fake referee reports with coercive citation requests — are setting off a war in academic publishing. What happens to those caught in the middle?

I'm interested in finding and potentially supporting people who are interested in doing long-form writing on the big efforts in global health: Gavi, Global Fund, PEPFAR, etc. If this is you or someone you know, please make yourself known!

We have a new Economic Inequality topic page— Public attention to economic inequality has grown a lot over the last twenty years. At the same time, the available data has greatly improved too: it now covers many more countries and longer time periods, and is more comparable and accessible than ever

Dot-and-line chart of monthly income or consumption at the 90th and 10th percentiles for selected countries, where it illustrates large gaps between the richest and poorest 10%. It shows the richest 10% in the United States at about $5,508 per person per month versus $789 for the poorest 10%, and smaller absolute amounts but clear gaps in Brazil (about $1,626 vs $161), Vietnam (about $875 vs $177) and Madagascar (about $156 vs $32).

Very happy that my project about "gaming" automated peer review tools has been awarded an NWO XS grant 🤩 🤸‍♀️ We know that peer review is overburdened, so could we use automated tools to help out? ... maybe, but one of the things we still don't know much about is the risk of "gaming" these tools.
