Under emotion-guided attention, fearful targets, presented in high (compared to low) spatial frequency, were better detected. This was also reflected in enhanced evidence accumulation, using drift diffusion modelling.

In our next episode of Nullius In Verba we will dive into the history of metascience. The first mention of 'metascience' in the literature we could find is Morris, 1938. Do you know of an earlier mention of the term 'metascience'?

And the next step? Full voxel-level modeling.

Recent numerical advances cracked the scalability barrier. Voxel-level hierarchical modeling is now feasible, revealing just how punishing traditional multiple-comparison adjustments really are.

The volume of social psych papers that ran on prolific and mturk is going to need to shrink soon, and that will have a big impact on a lot of small labs
new paper by Sean Westwood:

With current technology, it is impossible to tell whether survey respondents are real or bots. Among other things, makes it easy for bad actors to manipulate outcomes. No good news here for the future of online-based survey research

Synchronous Robustness Reports could explore implications of different analytical choices – but they could still suffer from bias. Hardwicke argues that preregistration is crucial to prevent it.

I think this is an overly pessimistic take from the @bmj.com.

Sharing data does not inherently increase trust, rather it enables verification which allows for trust calibration.

This example is a win. Serious issues were rapidly detected that would not have been without mandatory data sharing.

Two authors reanalyze the data from an earlier paper, cannot replicate the findings, and conclude that the original is wrong. The twist: the first author is the same on both papers. I only wonder why the original is not retracted.
