#statstab #504 Likelihood Ratio Test for Publication Bias
Thoughts: Interesting idea for a problem many of us think is present, but is hard to measure.

#statstab #497 On the Statistical Analysis of Experiments
With Manipulation Checks
Thoughts: All psychologists reading this title will panic. Yes, you can't just delete data and assume all is well.

#statstab #470 Low power bias {shiny} app
Thoughts: easily show what conducting an underpowered study would do to your effect size (type M error).

#statstab #469 We should focus on the biases that matter
Thoughts: I recommend this entire issue with the discussions and reply. They are a great insight into how science develops.

Thoughts: Is the replication of a a finding the "gold standard" for scientific discovery? Maybe not.

An interesting - likely highly citable - list of 40 #QRPs (questionable #research practices). I think practically every article I've ever read is now 'questionable' under this taxonomy. I think each one of these needs 'with the intent to deceive' or similar as a qualifier 🤔

🚨 New study alert! We're excited to share our "Bestiary of Questionable Research Practices in Psychology" in #AMPPS. We tackle the credibility crisis in research by defining, collecting, and categorizing QRPs using a community consensus method. 🧵#OpenScience #QRPs @psychscience.bsky.social
#statstab #381 In psychology everything mediates everything
Thoughts: Another great explanation of the pitfalls of mediation analysis. Mediation is not a simple procedure and require strong theory.

seven selfish reasons for preregistration : https://www.psychologicalscience.org/observer/seven-selfish-reasons-for-preregistration
Why bother? Because PRs/RRs separates exploration from confirmation.
📉 Without it, we risk p-hacking, HARKing, and data dredging. #QRPs
🎯 With it, we build credibility, clarity, and cumulative science. #TrustScience

#statstab #358 What are some of the problems with stepwise regression?
Thoughts: Model selection is not an easy task, but maybe don't naively try step wise reg.

Sometimes I despair about the state of #academia, but luckily I am working with a great bunch of B.A. and M.A. students on #OpenScience in #linguistics so Mondays are good days! 🥰 Today we talked about p-hacking, HARKing, preregistration and registered reports. One student remarked: But why […]

Friday 15 Nov, 15:00 CET - Wolfgang Kaltenbrunner and I will present our study where we argue #QRPs can be conceptualised as attempts to reconcile epistemic & social uncertainties in knowledge production. #ResearchIntegrity
