Incorporating AI technology into research. so many traditional psychometric methods are becoming suboptimal, and we risk becoming obsolete if the field does not adopt these technologies and adapt current practices.

What information does it store that good need for grant proposals??

That is a reasonable heuristic, but I’m an unreasonable person. :) would love an invite next year!

What an awesome group! My invite must have been lost in the mail. :)

I have no issue with the arm chair! Which has recently landed me in the predicament of difficult revisions recently where I had to reverse engineer and make my arm chairing systematic. Maybe I’m having a low level trauma response … and trying to save us the work later on

Haha I tried to edit my comment to convey what I really meant is not just AI v. Arm chair but anything semi-systematic v. Arm chair

It’s the journal club at UMN!

It sounds like your post refers to a particular interpretation of the p factor, not the empirical finding that it exists (the factor).

I just mean it comes out in factor analysis time and time again, so we’d have to grapple with that. Interpretation is a whole other story!

Well, I think we’d be talking about it because it is consistently found empirically?

Yes! Completely agree.
