Once again a great time at #IMRF2026 in Genova - the setting was exceptional, and the talks and posters were very interesting. What a privilege. Great seeing everybody. Grazie genovese for a superb conference!

Had a lot of fun nerding out with #theUlrik at today's computational and methods poster session at #IMRF2026 - great disucssions! Also loved the poster from our own @dorothycowie.bsky.social earlier this week

Forgot to share my latest blog post here - Can LLMs do science, how would we know, and how would they know? A lab note about David Louapre’s ( @scienceetonnante.com ) Eleusis benchmark for scientific reasoning thomaschazelle.fr/en/how-psych...

How (psychophysically) liberal are LLMs, really? A comment on Louapre (2026) | Thomas Chazelle

Overconfidence, confirmation bias, metacognitive monitoring: the parallels between human cognitive biases and LLMs’ drawbacks are striking. But measuring how well an AI

Art critique pigeons, phones changing how we see white, VR illusions and a hint of multisensory integration. Great time at #EPSNewcastle 2026! @exppsychsoc.bsky.social

New lab note: Comparing multisensory integration across different sensory cues is tricky because the size of the multisensory benefits depends on the variance of individual cues. How can cue normalisation solve this problem? thomaschazelle.fr/en/cue-norma...

Just came across Paul Bloom's criticism of some developmental psychology work and I wanted to share my thoughts. Tldr: We do need more data to find out, in the future, whether we were trying to fit cylinders (data points) in square holes (bad theories) all along - thomaschazelle.fr/en/data-matt...

Data matters too | Thomas Chazelle

What a lovely 3 days in Utrecht for #BRNet2025. Thanks everyone for the thought-provoking talks and chats. I think the computational modelling theme for this year was spot-on, congrats to the organisers @bodyrepnetwork.bsky.social ! Looking forward to seeing some of you again at #IMRF in Durham!

1st day at #BRNet2025 - I thought my nerdiness was sated with the computational modelling workshop, until Pieter Medendorp mentioned the El Greco fallacy 🥹

Can #BRNet2025 answer the cartographer / tuner question? If you're in Utrecht in the next few days and even if you're not coming, feel free to share and, most of all, comment! @bodyrepnetwork.bsky.social thomaschazelle.fr/en/the-carto...

Thought-provoking as always with @chazfirestone.bsky.social - you've probably hard that the Müller-Lyer illusion was WEIRD. But is it really? scholars.duke.edu/publication/... by @dorsaamir.bsky.social and @chazfirestone.bsky.social

In my latest lab note, I come back to our latest attempt at describing weight-related words with probability distributions thomaschazelle.fr/en/weight-la...

"Exposure to any Great Replacement Conspiracy narrative increased radical intentions against Muslims" - further proof that it should be considered hate speech and OUTLAWED!

Our registered report with @valentinmang.bsky.social and @feitenglong.bsky.social has now been published in BJSP! We examined the radicalizing effects of different Great Replacement conspiracy narratives (Muslim vs. left-wing conspirators). See the link for the paper: doi.org/10.1111/bjso...
