Just heard my paper was selected as Editor's Choice for JEP:LMC! Pretty chuffed to say the least psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

Really thrilled to see one of our Keele Psychology undergraduates win this national prize! It really was an amazing piece of work!

Spent the morning writing a lecture on computational modelling of visual short-term memory, and I get to talk extensively about our paper in press at QJEP (with @sbmoore.bsky.social)! I love my admin roles, but nothing beats being in the classroom! osf.io/preprints/ps...

Woo! Paper just accepted reporting 7 experiments from @sbmoore.bsky.social's excellent PhD work. Will appear in the Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology. Early version here: osf.io/preprints/ps...

Oxford’s new “Life & Mind” Building brings Biology and Experimental Psychology together, an example of how psychology thrives as an empirical, theory-driven, biological, and computational science. You can feel the intellectual energy there already! www.ox.ac.uk/news/2025-10...

Really fascinating discovery. But also fascinating how this came about (and what a shame we can't write it like this in papers!)

Gabriel Weindel@gweindel.bsky.social · last yr.

In this new preprint, in review @elife.bsky.social, we show what processing steps make up the reaction time using single trial #EEG modelling in a contrast #decision task. In this 🧵 I'm telling the story behind it as I think it is quite interesting and I can't write it like this in the paper...

I am happy to announce the publication of our new work on the impact of arbitrary analytical choices on type I and type II error rates. We simulated reaction time data in a conflict task and analyzed the notable CSE effect in a multiverse manner. Worrying results: link.springer.com/article/10.3...

I often see papers using GPower for power analysis in repeated measures factorial ANOVA designs. I don’t know what it’s doing, but it’s definitely giving wrong answers: substantially underestimates required sample size. MorePower seems like a much better alternative github.com/LewisPeacock...

On the left is a rabbit. On the right is an elephant. But guess what: They’re the *same image*, rotated 90°! In @currentbiology.bsky.social, @chazfirestone.bsky.social & I show how these images—known as “visual anagrams”—can help solve a longstanding problem in cognitive science. bit.ly/45BVnCZ
