Was talking to my daughter about the old Kurt Vonnegut book titled "Player Piano" tonight (great book IMO, and very relevant given the AI bubble of today). Came across this quote: “Everything you think you think because somebody promoted the ideas. Education—nothing but promotion.”
New replication paper is out in Meta-Psychology "Reality Television Shows Focusing on Sexual Relationships and College Students’ Engagement in One-Night Stands: A Replication Report". Shout out to lead author and senior grad student Somer Schaffer. Open access: open.lnu.se/index.php/me...
SO EXCITED to share this work (with the lovely @queersian.bsky.social, @cq-n.bsky.social, and @johnsakaluk.bsky.social) on trans-for-trans (T4T) attraction! In short, T4T is a label used by trans people to denote romantic/sexual attraction to other trans people. 📝: osf.io/preprints/ps... 🧵 (1)

This meta analysis reminded me of a research co-authored by my colleague Erin Heerey on "The Role of Experimenter Belief in Social Priming" (see abstract below). Cool study (and meta analysis).

From an old slide deck on replication research. Rewatching this episode of the Big Bang Theory hit differently after my own experiences with conducting replication research ;)
We’ve created an overview of the current state of theory development in psychological science (doi.org/10.31234/osf...). We're now conducting a survey on the topic to collect your views on the current state of theory development: --> forms.gle/Ct4qq4a4raun...

Vonnegut, in his 1952 book “Player Piano”, wrote about a dystopian world and the people struggling to sort it all out. When too many people are made redundant with technology, then what happens? Worth another read IMO.
If anyone is interested in a journal leadership position, there is a call for editor-in-chief for the Journal of Open Psychology Data: openpsychologydata.metajnl.com/announcements. I'm on the board, so I'm happy to chat to anyone or put your in touch with others!

Join us for the LOVE REPLICATIONS WEEK from March 2 - 6 with talks on reproductions, replications, how to find them, how to conduct them, how to have them conducted on your study, where to publish them, and much more!
I wrote a blog for the Meta-Research Center expressing my infinite frustration about not getting data. What else is new, you might think? Well, I added an extra layer of annoyance directed at the journals who do NOTHING to enforce promised data sharing. metaresearch.nl/blog/2026/2/...

A study finds only 5% of transportation research papers share code and 4% share data, underscoring the need for open science. Using Large Language Models, researchers created a pipeline to track data availability, boosting transparency in transportation research. https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.14429

Learned last week that the new version of the OSF removed the “comments” function. I really liked it, but I guess not used enough overall. So far not impressed with the user facing side of the OSF—feels like a house mid construction; it stands and has a roof and windows, but no finishing touches.
Lorne Campbell@lornejcampbell.bsky.social · 2y agoFirst time for me using the OSF as a tool for teaching a joint Grad/Undergrad course. All students are contributors to the project. A weekly assignment is to upload paper related to class topic, and use the comment function to share views on paper and talk to each other about them.
I certainly was not able to predict specifically what would happen, but the evidence was clear enough in September 2024 that the US was going to a dark place if/when Big T won the election. And that darkness casts a long shadow, with threats to former friends and brutality within. Hate and greed.
Lorne Campbell@lornejcampbell.bsky.social · 2y agoI admit I am waiting until to see outcome of US election before attending any US based academic conference. So many good things in academia outside the US nowadays. I imagine more growth in conferences etc outside the US if it moves toward autocracy this year.
For the middle powers of this world: “when we only negotiate bilaterally with a hegemon, we negotiate from weakness. We accept what’s offered. We compete with each other to be the most accommodating. This is not sovereignty. It’s the performance of sovereignty while accepting subordination”
Carney: "We stand firmly with Greenland and Denmark and fully support their unique right to determine Greenland's future. Our commitment to NATO's Article 5 is unwavering ... Canada strongly opposes tariffs over Greenland"
CARNEY: “.. You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration when integration becomes the source of your subordination.” 🔥
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 7mo agoCarney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "

Trump introduces a tariff for goods from The Netherlands. Great. Bring it on. I am happy to suffer any damage to our economy, and subsequent reduction to my wealth, for doing the right thing (being willing to protect Greenland).
