Hola de nuevo! Nuestro ya querido ReproducibiliTea está de vuelta un curso más 🤗. Para retomar el ritmo, este mes abordaremos un artículo en forma de comentario sobre la cuestión de si merece la pena coordinarnos mejor en ciencia 🤝. Os esperamos el próximo 27 de octubre a las 16h.

Very happy to finally see this out! A while ago I had the wonderful opportunity to meet an awesome group of scientists from very diverse fields, interested in exchanging thoughts, experiences and ideas. In this book, we collect some of these exchanges as a celebration the richness of science.

So proud of Águeda and Germán for putting this together. A short, insightful opinion piece on how drift–diffusion modeling can deepen our understanding of the role of attention in prioritizing working memory contents.

Does Body‐Specificity Stand on Solid Ground? Z‐Curving the Association Between Emotional Valence and Lateral Space The body-specificity hypothesis proposes that people with different bodies should also have different conceptual systems. The test case of this hypothesis has been the association of emotional valenc...

Diagram contrasting how research reports typically describe participant/sample metadata (e.g. age, gender, geography, ethnicity) but metaresearch studies often omit metadata about the publications they include (e.g. author career stage, gender, institution, language, open access). The central message: to assess equity and representation, we must look beyond participants to the people and contexts shaping our research samples.

We outline a sample characteristics table for metaresearch studies + our vision for an automated workflow to make it easier to see who & what is represented in study samples, supporting generalisability & #EDI

Following the controversy surrounding the p-curve technique, I wanted to better understand how the z-curve (a technique that solves several problems with the p-curve) works. I created a Bayesian version of the z-curve in Stan, and I'm quite pleased with the outcome 🙂
