Yashvin Seetahul @yashvin.bsky.social · 09/10/2026It could say, e.g., that if the "auxilliary test outcome is bad, then the test is auxilliary less likely to be reported" 100
Yashvin Seetahul @yashvin.bsky.social · 09/10/2026so...in a sample of studies, the predictor is either "auxilliary test outcome: good" vs "auxilliary test outcome: bad", and the outcome is a count variable of whether it's reported or not. Could a poisson regression or negative binomial do the job here? 100
Reposted by Yashvin SeetahulDan Quintana @dsquintana.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Publication bias is the idea that non-significant results are less likely to be published. But what about the opposite case where a *significant* result is less likely to be published? Anyone have any papers or tools for detecting and/or correcting for “reverse” publication bias? 983
Yashvin Seetahul @yashvin.bsky.social · 09/10/2026The only problem in my experience playing around with simulations is that selection models tend to overcorrect 110
Yashvin Seetahul @yashvin.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Selection models are, in theory, capable of detecting/correcting this. But in the psych and psych-adjacent communities, asking about "reverse publication bias" seemed to be a bit of a taboo... (probably because in the early days of the replication crisis, this was an argument used by the old guard) 210

Yashvin Seetahul @yashvin.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Yes! Between the 1990s and the 2010s, social psych became quite obsessed with publishing "news worthy" papers, this goes beyond just getting p<.05 as it meant getting very specific patterns in the data to be able to write some sort of "story" or catchy title.
