Join us for a conversation on Theory Building. We only make it through 1 of the 8 steps in the first part!

Daniël Lakens Caught up over the weekend on some recent Nullius In Verba episodes. The reference to The Maltese Cross response was a good reminder. It made me remember why I added this to my piece offering 'my' definition of effort and its perception... expecting others to use it is ambitious.

Really enjoyed this episode of Nullius In Verba on cumulative science💡✨

IMO, #behavioral science needs much better evidence synthesis and curation. Not only to improve the science but also its societal and political impact 📖

New episode of Nullius In Verba on Cumulative Science nulliusinverba.podbean.com/e/cumulative-s… We discuss the barriers to cumulative science, including inconsistent measurement tools, overreliance on single studies, and the large volume of research publication.

We are sending you off in the weekend with a new prologue episode of Nullius In Verba where I read Chaos in the Brickyard from 1963 by B. K. Forscher. nulliusinverba.podbean.com/e/prologus-28-… A classic - if you have not read it, give it a listen: I am confident you will enjoy it!

Do you need to report deviations from the preregistered analysis plan? Not all deviations are the same. Evaluate the consequences on the severity and validity of the test. Some deviations are improvements. osf.io/preprints/psya…

A few highly recommended podcast episodes from recent weeks:

1⃣ Mark Latash - Mastering Movement

2⃣ Judd Kalkhoven - Modeling for Proactive Injury Management

3⃣ Daniël Lakens and Smriti Mehta - Pre-registrations

4⃣ NFL Academy - American Football Internationally

A researcher writes a creative theory predicting a complex pattern.

She runs a preregistered study that supports all hypotheses.

HOWEVER, you realize she ran a secret pilot to learn the pattern BEFORE writing the theory. Does this new info change the evidence for the theory?

We are thrilled to announce the Paul Meehl Graduate School for metascience at Eindhoven University of Technology. We will offer 6-8 free workshops a year for metascience PhD students. You can register and find more information at paulmeehlschool.github.io

First part of a two-part episode on preregistration is out now! For once, we disagree about the fundamental goal of an open science practice––whom do you agree with?

First episode of the new year out now! We discuss reverence to authority and the role that authority plays in the generation and dissemination of knowledge.

In today's prologue release of Nullius In Verba we read Peirce's The Fixation of Belief' (and thanks to Brett Murphy for letting me know it should be pronounced like 'purse'!). Next week's episode will be on authority in science.

Final episode of 2023 out now! It has been tremendous fun to share our thoughts and engage with you these past 11 months. And we have some exciting episodes lined up for the beginning of 2024. Happy new year!

Getting ready as a last fun activity before Christmas break to record an episode for Nullius In Verba on preregistration! Looking forward to discuss some papers from more than half a century ago on this topic, as well as some current practices!

In the first installment of the final episode of 2023, we discuss the Anticreativity Letters by Richard Nisbett... and discover some interesting things about our approach to creativity along the way.

What are the characteristics of a good mentor?
Daniël Lakens and Gregory R. Hancock definitely deserve a 10/10 rating 🙂
