This is going around again! Clearly it's time to resurrect this which I made for twitter back when it was less evil. Types of Psych Papers [Note: it is slightly more cynical (for humour value) than I actually am]
Types of psych paper: 1) my honours student needed a publication; 2) I have this enormous dataset that I don't know what to do with but isn't it cool? 3) people on MTurk can sometimes learn things; 4) children are like weird adults; 5) my model does the same thing as previous models but is Bayesian; 6) people make silly decisions; 7) I found random noise in my data and made up a big theory to address it; 8) my research doesn't need math but if I have equations people will think I'm smart; 9) my model doesn't explain things but has nice fits, see? 10) things get weird as soon as you have people in groups; 11) all of cogsci is like undergrads at my university; 12) humans, what the heck?!?

Wicked problems. Wicked because they can't be 'solved'. The response will cause discord somewhere - in another group or part of this system. All you can do is recognise, mitigate where possible&weigh up if response is doing more harm then other responses or then doing nothing.

Just over 2 years ago this book wot I wrote was published. It was something close to my heart, drew together aspects of education I'm passionate about (the writer & subject knowledge). Maybe it was a bit self indulgent. I couldn't then talk about it with people who read it. I'd love to discuss now
