🤔 Gleiche Daten führen zu gleichen Schlussfolgerungen?
Nicht unbedingt, wie eine neue Publikation in "Nature" zeigt, an der auch der Innsbrucker Ökonom Felix Holzmeister beteiligt war. Eine Re-Analyse von 100 Studien durch 457 Wissenschaftler:innen zeigte, dass die statistische Interpretation […]

When peer review reports are available do you actually rad them?
Never - sometimes - always?
Can't do a proper poll but would love some insight.
Anyone aware of studies looking into this?

Any bright ideas out there? 💡 Here's an "essay competition inviting active scientists from any sector to share concrete research challenges that you hypothesize are caused by broad structural or systemic bottlenecks in science, and experimental strategies to fix them" […]
Lovely session (in Spanish!) last Wednesday with researchers at UNAM's Institute of Philosophy on Inference and Representation. Amazingly good questions and comments. Thanks for the careful reading and attention! ¡Gracias!

Three tabs. Three validators. One puzzle. Nobody sees anyone else's answer until all three are sealed — including the researcher's.
This is what structural independence looks like in practice 👇

#Metascience Button et al.'s Power Failure is a seminal meta-science paper. But it has a major flaw. It confuses unconditional power (median power of all studies, 21%) with conditional power (power / H1 is true). This has big implications for discussions of false positives.

Enjoyed this episode of @hpspodcast.bsky.social from last year with Heather Douglas about the social contract of science. Interesting discussion about 6 'types' of science and how they should be funded, relevant to a lot of current #metascience discourse. More 'science courts'! shorturl.at/QSdJI

If you are interested in any aspect of #ResearchSoftware, including #RSEng, #funding, #publishing, #training, #metascience, #policy, etc., consider submitting a proposal and/or attending #IRSC26 (right before #RSECon26 in Sheffield, UK, in Sept). We want to bring all parts of the community together
One of Habermas' many merits was to be the first to understand the reactionary form of postmodernism behind Adorno and Horkheimer's unduly influential Dialectics of Enlightenment.
No thinker ever did so much to restore the cause of reason.

Here is a research question for an interesting #MetaScience project:
Does academia attract narcissists, or does it make them?
New summary from Mirror @sci-integrity.com
🤖 Is AI fuelling false findings in science?
New analysis found a surge in AI use in health studies using large datasets — many without proper statistical checks.

Early-Bird Papers: Who Really Uses Preprints?
They are rising, but unevenly.
Global study shows physics still dominates. Some regions use preprints twice as much as others.
