Yes! Or well β€œto comply with regulations regarding participant rewards at the institution where the data was collected, x more participants were collected.” It’s unlikely to be massive numbers anyway?

I’d run and use them. Running them and not using them seems to me to be unethical waste. You can explain in any output why there is more data than pre-registered.

Collections: Life, Work, Death and the Peasant, Part V: Life In Cycles This is the fifth and final part of our series (I, II, IIIa, IIIb, IVa, IVb, IVc, IVd, IVe) looking at the structures of life for pre-modern peasant farmers and showing how historical modeling can …

This week on the blog: Peasants! We are at last putting together and wrapping up our discussion of life for pre-industrial peasants - a category which includes a majority of all humans who have ever lived.

How we can model how they lived, worked, loved and died.

Hi all! I’m looking for research jobs in social psychology, environmental action, & climate policy. I study pro-environmental action, moral and identity processes, scientist advocacy, and universities’ climate responses. I use qualitative and quantitative methods for research with real-world impact.

Haha. I know, I checked loads in the beginning. It does wear off, although I still enjoy "personal" records. I think you might as well enjoy looking!

New paper! - I was wrong! We checked and checked again we were definitely wrong.

And I couldn't be happier that we are able to publish these findings at QJEP - Satchell, Hall & Jones 🧡

As a native speaker, yes β€œkont” can be used as a non-diminutive. To me, kont is as normal as kontje. Kontje feels slightly less rude and is more likely to be used metaphorically (i.e. for the end slice of a loaf), but the difference is marginal.

True, helicopters are even posher than planes. Funny how clearly they can be ranked

And trains seem to be posher than busses, but less posh than cars. Planes are clearly poshest.

I'm always surprised at how much car driving is about social status in the UK. It's really interesting to see that reflected in this study
