Planning out research proposal, collecting data from a pilot, pushing collab who I consider a friend to pursue it further and how it will be an exciting project for us, and I've found out they've applied for a grant to research it without me. Completely blindsided by it and unsure how to address.

Getting an email at nearly 4pm on a Friday from a Journal saying "a decision about your manuscript will be made soon" is exactly the kind of anxiety inducing moment I need the least right now.

For the first time in my academic career I have time (not teaching) to write a grant and go for funding. I am finding this one of the least enjoyable experiences, especially as it's my ~2nd attempt at one. What tips do people have? How do I make this easier?

We must combat bad science & fraud because dodgy 'peer-reviewed' work is being used to give credibility to positions in high-stakes areas with real consequences. The publishers who let in weak/fraudulent work with minimal scrutiny are complicit. www.theguardian.com/world/2024/a...

"Speaking as a parent, we all want our children to be safe, and years of newspaper headlines have suggested that social media is causing a children’s mental health crisis. However, the best scientific evidence we have so far simply doesn’t back this narrative" www.sciencefocus.com/comment/soci...

A social media ban for children would actually solve nothing. Here’s why

Politicians are claiming social media apps are causing irreparable harm to our young. The science, however, says otherwise.

Open Science People! Without trawling through several hundred pages of OSF.io, do people have good examples of Pre-reg posters? Modifying my 2nd Year Developmental course and rather than get them to summarise a previous experiment, I want them to think about Pre-Reg and designing their own.

In the middle of presenting this slide I realised that every year we teach ~500 women how to code as part of 1st year psychology, and if I do nothing else with my career, it will have all been worth it.

Help - My Survey is Full of Bots!
Dermot Lynott

Can you trust your own survey data? How can you tell if the responses are genuine or not? In this webinar I’ll talk about recent experiences of conducting online surveys, that were very quickly flooded with automated, bot responses. I highlight the different ways that we identified these bots, and provide some suggestions for how researchers can reduce the influence of bots, and ensure they are getting good quality data from their surveys.
