New post! "Making Sense of Replications (and Some Nonsense about the Replication Crisis)," in which I suggest a journal club reading list of new papers on replication, and push back on claims that the replication crisis is fake. getsyeducated.substack.com/p/making-sen...

Making Sense of Replications (and Some Nonsense about the Replication Crisis)

It’s hard to overstate just how much the culture around replication in science has changed over the past 15 years.

New preprint: There is only one correct analysis. osf.io/preprints/ps... with @sajedehra.bsky.social and @mntunc.bsky.social We take a critical look at recent proposals for multiverse or many analyst procedures, and strongly argue that epistemic uncertainty should be reduced, not “embraced”. >

"The benefits of and motivations behind large-team coordination in psychology" is finally out as preprint. In this paper, @lakens.bsky.social, Krist Vaesen, and I discussed the possible rewards of large-team collaborations that are common in coordinated research.

In Philosophy of Nature, Feyerabend says that his position can be seen as exploring the implications of Levi-Strauss' ideas on myths for the phil of sci. I think it's a fascinating connection, especially given his indirect but significant influence on STS & the strong programme.

Im sorry for empowering trump to attack science by my asking people to use better data management and statistical practices. I take full responsibility for my actions and apologize to those who could so obviously see how my efforts would be responsible for ending American science.

The View From Nowhere is the name of a book written by T. Nagel, often quoted to demonstrate the absurdity of the "positivist" position. The position attributed to Nagel is criticized as impossible and mythical, especially by those who emphasize the inevitability of different standpoints in science.

1/ But what about the counterargument that conventional evidential thresholds (like p < 0.05) are arbitrary? Doesn’t “God love .06 as much as .05”?

1/ In our recent paper with @uygun_tunc (philsci-archive.pitt.edu/25196/), we defend the use of conventional alpha levels (e.g., 0.05, 0.01, or 5 sigma) in scientific inference. We challenge the claim that these thresholds should be set in a value-laden or context-dependent way. 🧵👇

Today I learned that Kepler was not only one of the pioneers of the scientific revolution, but also one of the first people to write a science fiction novel. The plot of the novel, named Somnium (Latin for dream), has also very interesting parallels with Kepler’s life & work. 🧵

I will write a few threads about operationalism in the coming days. In an undertheorized field like psychology, this philosophical position is very attractive to researchers because it seems to solve the problem of definition. But there is a price we pay for it.

There is great interest in the "high replicability" paper. We submitted a draft correction, response to commentary, and response to a follow-up criticism at the end of December. There's a lot of content. So it is very understandable that the review process is taking some time. Sorry for the delay.

The main function of (both close and conceptual) replication studies is to reduce the inferential risk due to underdetermination through testing potentially problematic auxiliary assumptions, thereby increasing overall test severity.

People seem surprised there is a lot of variety within the movement for better research practices. But of course there is! This paper by @uyguntunc.bsky.social and @mntunc.bsky.social analyzes some of these disagreements, and is a good read: journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....

When you discover new effects using preregistration, high power, & replicate faithfully with open materials, you get a replication rate of 86% & effect sizes 97% as big! Our new published paper with so many wonderful researchers: www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Our paper "High replicability of newly discovered social-behavioral findings is achievable" appears today in Nature Human Behaviour. Just as the large replications provided an inflection point in identifying replicability challenges, this paper does so for solutions. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Here too for the X-boycotters: 1st 1st author manuscript, elated, etc. etc., let’s get to it: We need more high-quality norms in psychology and traditional sampling and norming techniques won’t get us there. MRP can help, though!

This is the biggest "political" achievement of the reform movement to date and I congratulate everyone who made it possible, & especially @simine.com. I'd like to share a few random thoughts about the evolution of the mvmnt from a protest mvmnt to a mvmnt that increasingly defines the mainstream 🧵
