Papers are one-way conversations. Getting additional info from authors can be hard, so clear reporting from the outset is critical. In our new preprint, we (@annalschubert.bsky.social, Meike Steinhilber & @heeminkang.bsky.social) propose a set of psych reporting guidelines osf.io/preprints/ps...
Further resources on the interpretation of null results.A dataset was generated showing simulated data points in two groups A and B. Group A follows a normal
distribution with a mean of 10 and a standard deviation of 1, while Group B exhibits a bimodal distribution, characterized by
peaks at 9 and 11 with a standard deviation of 0.5. As shown in the figure (A), barplots often fail to capture the true distribution
of the data. Although boxplots in (B) provide more insights into the data distribution compared to barplots, violin plots in (C)
and raincloud plots in (D) provide a more accurate representation of the actual data distribution. Reproducible code to generate
this figure is available at https://osf.io/mk5qa/.Table 4. Overview of effect sizes for popular statistical models, with descriptions and software tools for estimation

This is no surprise to many of us who work in long COVID. The poor lack access to good care; the poor can’t take time off to rest when they need to; the poor often work in higher exposure risk jobs (healthcare and teaching and essential workers) and are women. www.cidrap.umn.edu/covid-19/stu...

It may seem strange to folks outside of academia, but there has been a line of prominent research within it arguing that misinformation isn't a problem. This paper pushes back, noting how those arguments often rely on poor definitions & operationalizations of what misinformation is & how it works.
