You are someone who does quantitative #metascience? Want to do this as a #professor? With a research-focused, tenure-track position in Germany? At a great institute with a super smart and fun team? This one is for you! 🤗

We have made public #openscience materials from the Münster Center for Open Science, specifically flyers and cheatsheets on #OpenAccess, #OpenData, and #Preregistration. Flyers are already on Zenodo, Cheatsheets will follow: zenodo.org/communities/muecos/ and lukasroeseler.github.io/MueCOS-Infom...

🫶By joining our team, you won’t just design curriculum — you’ll shape how thousands of scientists learn to do rigorous, trustworthy research. Imagine seeing a student halfway across the world use materials you created to strengthen their science. That kind of impact lasts. Apply at: buff.ly/nJxjaKd

Great work by @abitter.bsky.social @mariogollwitzer.bsky.social @kaisassenberg.bsky.social @t-1m.bsky.social et al. on FAIR data sharing in Psychology. They also suggest 6 simple checks that can be implemented in the editorial process to improve data FAIRness.

How FAIR is shared data in psychology? We analyzed 11,384 datasets (2013–2024): They're findable, but less reusable! What relates most to differences in FAIRness? #Repository choice. 👉 Preprint: doi.org/10.23668/psy... @mariogollwitzer.bsky.social @kaisassenberg.bsky.social #metascience #SciSci

Next Monday (September 29th), Jessica Rohmann (@jlrohmann.bsky.social) & Toivo Glatz will give an interesting talk on Peerspectives, a researcher-led peer-review training course @zpid.bsky.social! Join us at ZPID or online! More info and registration here: leibniz-psychology.org/en/products/...

Kicking-off her PhD journey, @wagunyego.bsky.social talked about her initial findings capturing epistemic injustice and its relationship to trust in science. So many interesting avenues to go from here, more exciting stuff coming over the course of the next years of her dissertation. #SciReLab
