Looking for open-science and meta-research events? Been tracking these in the past month, manual and automated. Encouraging to see that there are quite a few. If you want to see what I'm keeping track of: metaventory.vercel.app/events?view=...

Check out the new pop-up events by @improvingpsych.org ! ⭐You can now also submit under the ECR Pop-up category, introduced to provide a platform for ECRs, including grad students, to host events that further SIPS' mission. Excited to get to help with this as part of the outreach committee :)

Society for the Improvement of Psychological Science (SIPS)@improvingpsych.org · 2w ago

SIPS meetings happen once a year, but improving psychological science is a year-round endeavor! Because of this, SIPS is launching a Pop-Up Event series, where SIPS members can propose monthly unconferences, hackathons & workshops, open to everyone!💪 buff.ly/OFgUncY #OpenScience

And so after a very brief hiatus, version 0.7.0 of "learning statistics with R" exists. Full rebuild in quarto, stylistic fixes, "epilogues from 2026" to comment on how the world changed since original publication, and as an added bonus, no longer misgenders the author learningstatisticswithr.com

This afternoon I took part in a demo of the 'openESM' initiative by @bsiepe.bsky.social hosted by @psychrstats.bsky.social. What a fantastic opportunity for those who are looking to explore or expand their research background with ESM data.

But it's real. Students bring a ton of anxiety around statistics and the math behind it into the courses. And our training infrastructure sucks. This paper is a really nice overview of the challenges we face in statistics education. www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1...

Statistical Education in the 21st Century: A Review of Challenges, Teaching Innovations and Strategies for Reform

Over the past few decades there has been a large amount of research dedicated to the teaching of statistics. The impact of this research has started to change course content and structure, in both ...

Spent some time today playing around with the #Rstats package orchaRd 2.0 It offers a really nice way of visualizing #metaanalysis, especially moderator meta-regression models (with both categorical & continuous moderators!) #dataviz 🔗 daniel1noble.github.io/orchaRd/ 📄 doi.org/10.1111/2041...

#AcademicSky #PsychSciSky In intro grad class, I still (yes) have students read Baron & Kenny(1986) Make sure all get mediation vs moderation But it's awfully dated, especially statistically. (Sobels; tested in sep regressions) Recommendation for new Masters students to read & discuss in class?

Anyway, I really feel like the whole environment, including the state of the published literature, is really colluding against students learning how to do proper research. That’s a shame; I always have the impression our students really do want to learn how to do things the right way.

📣We are excited to announce that FORRT is one of the few initiatives worldwide to be formally endorsed as a Programme of the International Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development (IDSSD, 2024–2033)! 🎉

Preparing this talk gave me an opportunity to reflect on what lessons I've learned from psychology's replication crisis and credibility revolution, and what advice I would have for other fields. We've come a long way! Video: youtu.be/_vb1CNwC3CM?... Slides : osf.io/cuj62/files/...

Please help us, #MetaScience community! It's time to decide on a forever name for papercheck (scienceverse.github.io/papercheck/). We don't want it to be confused with papercheck.ai, and we plan to check other research artifacts like repo contents, data, code, and prereg. Any suggestions?
