New paper out @APA_Journals: we investigated the mechanisms causing dual-action benefits (in contrast to the more commonly observed costs). Our results point to two sources: differential inhibitory costs and semantic redundancy gains.

Thanks to @goetheinstitut for the great symposium on trust! Here's my talk for those interested :) youtu.be/Qs9Jzkx-3yQ

Gaze and face information interact when catching our attention. Thanks for the great collaboration @BreilChristina @DerRobrecht @DrTimWelsh Roxana Pittig and @RaettigTim!
Does eye-contact always attract attention? Not in every case, as a research team @Uni_WUE, Institute of #Psychology, has recently shown. Why not? Because context matters. Journal of Experimental Psychology @AnneBockler idwf.de/-DDpwAC
Really interesting read if - like me - you only have a vague concept of how (viral) evolution works & affects things like transmissibility

Omicron thoughts from dark, Christmas London. TL;DR - Europe+World is facing the Omicron storm and it looks increasingly bad; and, obviously, the virus doesn't care about Christmas. Despite some serious response in the UK, this virus is replicating fast; more action likely needed

Beware: If you keep doing research long enough, your stimuli start to look like you. ;-) New publication with Laura Schmitz, Alan Kingstone, & @AnneBockler: "When eyes beat lips: Speaker gaze affects audiovisual integration in the McGurk illusion" doi.org/10.1007/s00426-021-0…
Dear #rstats community: how do you perform G*Power-esque sensitivity analyses, given multiple within-subj factors and interactions?

This tweet has been making the rounds as an example of open science proponents piling on female ECRs (the lead author of the paper). The most noteworthy thing about that discourse is how no noteworthy open science proponent who engaged, engaged the actual issue. 🧵
It's 2021 and social psychologists are still publishing papers like this: Women wearing not much clothing on a night out don't get cold because they believe that they "look hot" (geddit?)🧐🤦♂️🙄 @EJWagenmakers @RolfZwaan @lakens

If we could get rid of the “rigor” jerks in academia, universities would be better places, and our science would be better. It costs nothing to give CONSTRUCTIVE criticism instead of tearing down people’s work in condescending and mean-spirited ways. And, its how we get better.

A cool side-effect of our #bropenscience article (with @kirstie_j's) is that we have managed to totally reclaim the hashtag, which was taken away from us from some highly *ehem* motivated trolls originally. I won't link, but you can imagine, I'm sure.

I have seen recent tweets on a failure to replicate context dependent memory – the Godden & Baddeley 1975 scuba diving study.
Should you drop this from teaching? No.
Place dependent memory effects are huge, reliable. Some studies will fail to create the effect. Thread. 1/26

Happy to announce our new article in Attention, Perception and Psychophysics: facial context information fundamentally shapes attention capture by direct gaze rdcu.be/cAG0U

New paper out @APA_Journals: we show that under certain circumstances, multitasking can actually be beneficial. doi.apa.org/record/2021-9823…

A warm welcome @AnneBockler as new Professor for Research Methods and Social Cognition at the JMU Institute of #Psychology!
Dear #rstats community: is there a package for importing .qif (quicken interchange format) files into R?
