In the last 2 years I (and our lovely collaborators) have been rather obsessively working on Metacheck - a tool to automatically check best practices in papers. In this RIOTS summerschool talk, I walk you through what the tool can do, and future plans www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWd2...

Here is your regular reminder that people were saying there was a replication crisis 50 years ago without anyone paying them to do so. Almost as if these people just cared about improving science, and nothing else! rips-irsp.com/articles/10....
Concerns About Replicability Across Two Crises in Social Psychology | International Review of Social Psychologyrips-irsp.comI was not reviewer 2. But I am so annoyed by Americans pretending the whole open science movement is funded by John Arnold. His investments are absolutely dwarfed by what the European Union and European science funders have invested in Open science. Only incredibly biased people would ignore this.

Analysis Multiversi is out now: nulliusinverba.podbean.com/e/episode-81... What is the epistemic goal of multiverse analysis? Should we incorporate the uncertainty in many analyst approaches into our statistical inferences? (😬)? Is the variability mainly due to low effort of non-experts?
I still see people who try to defend preregistration for secondary data analysis when the data is publicly accessible. It is a nonsensical thing to do. Fire up a lab notebook and log your decisions, by all means, be transparent. But you can't preregister. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
The benefits of preregistration and Registered ReportsPractices that introduce systematic bias are common in most scientific disciplines, including toxicology. Selective reporting of results and publication bias are two of the most prevalent sources o...www.tandfonline.comNice podcast episode with Nature editor Magdalena Skipper on why she believes Metascience is an important young discipline that can help us to understand how to improve our science, and the lessons learned from the Replication Crisis. thehpspodcast.buzzsprout.com/2180146/epis...
Yesterday we recorded a Nullius in Verba podcast episode in which we critically reflect on multiverse analysis, it's misuse, and it's very limited uses in science. I bring up some points of our recent preprint 'There is only one correct analysis' (osf.io/preprints/ps...). Out this Friday!
