Yes, that's right. Sorry I did not mention that. They made him say that he was Jewish before killing him. I still remember the horror of this very vividly

The thing about Colbert is that he has always been smart & fast & brave. Sure the Late Show is a less aggressive venue so what he does is often less pointed, but he does that well too while also finding ways to talk head on to power. I really hope we get to see him unleashed for the next 6 months

β€œIf we understand the objects of psychological research to be epistemically blurry, this implies the existence of epistemic agents from whose perspective they are blurry. If it were not for this perspective, we would not be doing science at all”.

Just got a copy! Thanks @ufeest.bsky.social

Someone in my feed asked people to share baby pictures of their pet, but I couldn't figure out how to add this to their post.

... but I agree with everthing that was said above: That there are replication-like procedures in science that we fail to see if we narrowly search for "replication studies"

In my book (chapter 7), I also talk about experimental controls and the function they play in research. I argue that their function is not merely to control for artifacts but also to contribute to conceptual development. I don't really care whether we call this replication...

I suspect that the latter kind of microreplication is more common in psychology than the former, but I don't know :-)

A New Account of Replication in the Experimental Life Sciences on JSTOR Stephan Guttinger, A New Account of Replication in the Experimental Life Sciences, Philosophy of Science, Vol. 86, No. 3 (July 2019), pp. 453-471

In his 2019 article, Guttinger continues on microreplication as calibration of experimental system by bringing in the notions of positive and negative experimental control, which are supposed to rule out specific artifacts. To me this sounds more like something that would be done by the same team

In the above 2018 article by Guttinger, he talks about first β€œvalidating” one’s experimental system by replicating an effect already known to exist. This is slightly different from Peterson’s point (he talks about how one lab will adopt the techniques of another: β€œintegrative replication”).

Great. I love it. I think I argue in my book that this kind of work is important
