DataPipe (pipe.jspsych.org) is ready for its post-OSF life. You can use it as before to save data from online experiments, but now the data can be sent to Zenodo, Google Drive, or a Dataverse instance. Existing OSF connections work until 11/16 I took this opportunity to do some major updates...

I used to love this time of year, hearing from students applying to work in my lab. No more. Every day a fresh batch of nearly identical emails with nonsensical remixes of the text on my lab website. It makes me so sad.
This summer I led a series of conversations in my lab about "AI" and our research. Some colleagues have shared "AI policies" for their labs and we discussed whether this would make sense for us. We decided it did not, and came up with a different approach. Please feel free to share & adapt!

Psych Science (the journal) is broader than you might think! Do you do descriptive research? Or research w/ underrepresented populations or cultural frameworks? Or research on AI/LLMs for psych? Or research testing lab findings in the real world? We have a special issue for that!
Send your best work to Psychological Science! Four special issue calls: 1. Descriptive Research in Psychological Science www.psychologicalscience.org/publications... 2. Advancing Psychological Science Using Large Language Models www.psychologicalscience.org/publications...
With the upcoming changes to OSF, DataPipe (pipe.jspsych.org) is migrating to a multi-backend model. We're currently developing support for Zenodo, Dataverse, and Google Drive. If there are other providers that you'd like to see as options please get in touch.

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)
I'm hiring a postdoc in 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐬𝐲𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲! This project will focus on psychological change in the Middle East and North Africa, with a particular interest in Islamic history. Topical themes include religiosity, creativity, morality, and institutions. 1/n

In a new paper out in @cognitionjournal.bsky.social, @gordpennycook.bsky.social and I argue the classic view that System 2 spontaneously corrects System 1 is flawed. We provide evidence that S2 is instead triggered by conflict between competing S1 intuitions www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
🚨 New preprint out! 🚨 We’ve spent years assuming liberals and conservatives prioritize fundamentally different moral values—and designing persuasive messages based on that assumption. Our data suggest there's more to the story, and that making that assumption can backfire.

Our new short piece in TiCS on intuitive theories of truth: how people judge whether statements could be true, whether statements are true, and whether to assert them as true. A great collab with @keremoktar.bsky.social @ihandleyminer.bsky.social @kevinzollman.com @lianeleeyoung.bsky.social
New paper: Intuitive theories of truth We connect philosophical theories of truth with cognitive science. We suggest new avenues for research around questions of how people judge statements as truth apt, what makes them true, and whether to assert something as true. Check it out!
