🗳️ We are currently soliciting nominations for the Executive Committee of the Society for the Improvement of Psychological Science!

🙋 Any member may be nominated, and self-nominations are welcome.

✨ SIPS values diversity; we encourage nominations of members from all backgrounds.

We want to hear about the amazing work our colleagues are doing to understand, evaluate and improve research and research practices.

Call for proposals for AIMOS is now open and closes Sept 1st. Don't miss out!

Psychologists & related fields: what is a big methods question that you believe remains somewhat unanswered & that you'd love to see adressed? There may be an opportunity for a large-scale meta-science project with many teams trying to figure out a question.

Any thoughts welcome! #psychscisky

A Tale of Two Science Reform Movements Reflections from meetings of Metascience 2025 and the Society for the Improvement of Psychological Science

New post! "A Tale of Two Science Reform Movements," in which I compare the recent #Metascience2025 and #SIPS2025 conferences, and find that I am much more at home at one than the other. getsyeducated.substack.com/p/a-tale-of-...

remarkable to me how much of (my) #sips2025 was about publishing reform, but how totally absent that has been from #metascience2025 (indeed, the very opposite with an elsevier VP joining a keynote panel)

go submit to @psych.peercommunityin.org folks!

If you didn't make it to #Metascience2025 you could still come to our pub watch party in London today. We'll screen two pre-conference symposia & conference attendees can join for Bianca Kramer's talk on the Barcelona Declaration. Starts 1345 BST - sign up here: www.eventbrite.com/e/metadata-f...

Expressions of interest in this Metascience PhD scholarship @unimelb are open now

If you’re in London and interested in metascience-y things, there’s more going on than just the official conference!
Please help spread the word!

Ah ok... We also couldn't get the SIPS stickers delivered in time so even if they said they could do it, I wouldn't trust it :/ next year!

Massive thank you to everyone who joined us at in-person #SIPS2025, and to our fantastic organising team led by @balazsaczel.bsky.social and @epronizius.bsky.social 👏

Shift control from corporate publishers back to scholars, by supporting, and submitting your work to initiatives like MetaROR (metascience), PCI Psychology, and diamond OA journals (freejournals.org) e.g. Wikijournal of Science (wikijsci.org).

We had a blast during #SIPS2025!

We are energized by all the ideas discussed and can't wait for the next meeting!

Dear participants, let us know what you liked the most about the meeting and what you would like to see in the future.

They have a UK website, not sure if that means they ship from there.

Any chance you have two? 🙃

We're missing you too 🧡

Many-analysts approaches can help uncover analytical insecurity. The Journal of Robustness Reports publishes short reports that check alternative analytical approaches for articles. Very cool! 💪 #SIPS2025 @improvingpsych.org #OpenScience

Are you at #SIPS2025 in Budapest? We have PCI Psych stickers and (a limited number of) free PCI Psych t-shirts! You can fill out this form if you are here and interested in getting a tshirt: forms.gle/qYtUqohfZVBx...

(Stickers are plentiful, get yours at the registration desk!)

First ten minutes of #SIPS2025 and we are already talking about @pci-regreports.bsky.social, I feel very at home. ❤️✨ #OpenScience @improvingpsych.org

PCI Psychology is here!! 🎉🥳

After over a year of hard work by so many people, we are thrilled to announce that we are open for submissions! Join us in making publishing more efficient, equitable, and open: psych.peercommunityin.org

Hey SIPS folks, we want to run a small repliCATS pilot on Day 0 (24 June) in Budapest to get feedback on our latest project! Join @fidlerfm.bsky.social & @fallonmody.bsky.social for a 2-hour session, with catered lunch + 50 euro visa card. More details here: forms.gle/Z7p7PqA5vqpC...

In theory, yes, but in practice, it feels very hard to change this. To be honest I'm not even sure that system would be any better, bc who can pay? Probably not diamond OA journals. I'd rather we all do unpaid work for community-run journals than paid work for for-profit journals.

I guess it depends on what you mean by easily :)

But then again, if I’m going to spend 10 hs checking a paper for free, I’d rather check the ones most likely to be read & cited. Unfortunately, that’s still the ones at high prestige (often for profit) journals. Hopefully we'll change that soon.

Fair point and I fully agree with the sentiment, but not sure what a realistic alternative is. Lots of editorial work is volunteer (or “part of your academic job”, which i’m not sure i agree with), including reviewing. Maybe we only volunteer our labor at diamond OA journals. #psychscisky #scipub
