There still seems to be a lot of confusion about significance testing in psych. No, p-values *don’t* become useless at large N. This flawed point also used to be framed as "too much power". But power isn't the problem – it's 1) unbalanced error rates and 2) the (lack of a) SESOI. 1/ >

Let's celebrate the poster award winners from last weeks conference, one awardee per day 🧵

We are happy to announce that the DGPA is now a member of @germanrepro.bsky.social after signing the Memorandum of Understanding last week. We look forward to a fruitful and successful collaboration in support of open and reproducible science!

Good morning! The social media team @stephannebe.bsky.social @ocklenburg.bsky.social @tdresler80.bsky.social @mariame.bsky.social and @msicorello.bsky.social behind this account hope you enjoyed the amazing @pug2025.bsky.social in Würzburg so far and are ready for the last day! #PuG2025

IGOR is going to #PuG2025 in Würzburg! 🧠
@pug2025.bsky.social

We’re bringing open science to the spotlight with a series of events throughout the conference. Come meet us, discover our latest work, and get involved!

🧵 Check the thread below for all IGOR events. [1/6]

Three days left to participate in round one of our Delphi study. 🔥

For more infos, follow the link! #hormones #psychoneuroendocrinology 🧪

Do you work with #hormones? 🚶‍♂️🐁 🧫 Have you ever tried to share your data or worked with datasets and encountered challenges?

#NODES aims to develop a standard data format for hormones to remedy this.

Participate in our Delphi study to let us know what should be considered (open until mid June). ⬇️

The conference "Psychology and Brain" by @biodgps-dgpa.bsky.social @dgps.bsky.social is now starting in Wuerzburg – with a highly interesting workshop for early career researchers on the use of AI in psychological science! 🤩🤩🤩

The #PuG2025 is happening in Würzburg ~this week~ and we cannot wait to see you all in person! 🧠 @pug2025.bsky.social

Today and tomorrow, two early career scholar workshops are taking place ⬇️

who says that science doesn't generate profit?

1/5) 🫤 I'm 100% not with you on this.

Sorry, @ecologistgreen.bsky.social, but IMO this editorial is totally off the mark.

What does peer review accomplish? Does it make science more trustworthy and credible? Nope. Let's get real for a moment...

Die Deadline zur Einreichung von Postern für die diesjährige 50. Fachtagung Psychologie und Gehirn (PuG) #PuG2025 in Würzburg wurde einmalig bis zum 11.04.25 verlängert. 🚨

Wir freuen uns auf zahlreiche weitere Beiträge. Nähere Informationen finden Sie unter www.pug2025.org.

There are still some spots available in the two ECR pre-conference workshops before the #PuG2025!
You can choose between learning how to integrate AI in you day-to-day research (Workshop 1) and learning about how to accomodate different analysis pathways in one research project (Workshop 2).

Three AI-powered steps to faster, smarter peer review Tired of spending countless hours on peer reviews? An AI-assisted workflow could help.

Let's talk about this Nature piece in more detail.

I've rarely read something so anti-scientific anywhere short of the National Review.

Good morning 👋

this is the joint account of the Division of Biological Psychology and Neuropsychology of the German Psychological Society and the German Society of Psychophysiology.

We share research results 📝, job offers 🚨 and relevant information ℹ️ about our field. 🧠

I’ve given multiple talks on Many Analysts projects that one could consider “critical”, among them one that contained this rather spicy slide critical of critics of this type of project.>

After a long wait, the working paper for the Many-Economists Project: The Sources of Researcher Variation in Economics. We had 146 teams perform the same research three times, each time with less freedom. What source of freedom leads to different choices and results? papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....
