I presented at this yesterday. It is wonderful. Accessible globally with an attendee list from *everywhere*. I can’t applaud it more. Academia needs more of this - inclusion done properly.

My first @improvingpsych.org conference in the books! I was stoked to continue building my reputation in the field as a BTS researcher by sharing my perspective as an ECR in BTS projects and presenting a new toolkit (PACT) to help plan large scale collaborations.

New preprint🎉 We use word familiarity norms as a test case to examine methodological issues in lexical norming research across 61 studies/15 languages, & propose recommendations for more transparent and reproducible practices. doi.org/10.31234/osf... #Psycholinguistics #OpenScience

New blog post, inspired by the excellent recent qualitative paper by Makel and colleagues: On the reliability and reproducibility of qualitative research. I reflect on how I will incorporate realist ontologies in my own qualitative research. daniellakens.blogspot.com/2026/02/on-r...

Fresh from the lab: A new developmental study on cognitive flexibility. We investigated the "Unity and Diversity" of control by comparing domain-general (Executive) and domain-specific (Semantic) task-switching in 4-10 year olds. www.researchsquare.com/article/rs-7... #msca #ctrlaltdev

Developmental Trajectories of Executive and Semantic Flexibility Using Task-Switching

Cognitive control supports adaptive behavior through stability and flexibility, with executive flexibility typically assessed through task-switching paradigms. However, while executive flexibility is ...

🧠New paper out! We introduce a novel semantic task-switching paradigm & show that executive + semantic flexibility share common mechanisms Check it out 👉https://rdcu.be/eCKK9 G. Viviani I. Di Pietro @aggieerin.bsky.social E. Ambrosini @annamariaporru.bsky.social #CognitiveFlexibility #Research

Hot off the press! 🔥In our new paper we show that concrete and abstract words engage the brain differently—and it depends on the task. EEG shows that concreteness is a continuous feature with distinct neural signatures. #Neuroscience #EEG dx.doi.org/10.1111/psyp...

This study reveals that our brains process words differently based on how concrete or abstract they are, and this effect changes depending on the task at hand. By using advanced brain imaging techniq....

Thrilled to share our latest paper has been accepted in Psychophysiology🎉 With an amazing interdepartmental team (A. Visalli, A. Angrilli, E. Ambrosini) we investigated how the brain processes word concreteness using ERPs, challenging theories of word meaning. Preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...
