Multiverse simulation to explore the impact of analytical choices on type I and type II errors in a reaction time study - Behavior Research Methods Researcher degrees of freedom in data analysis present significant challenges in social sciences, where different analytical decisions can lead to varying conclusions. In this work, we propose an exam...

I am happy to announce the publication of our new work on the impact of arbitrary analytical choices on type I and type II error rates. We simulated reaction time data in a conflict task and analyzed the notable CSE effect in a multiverse manner. Worrying results:

Possibly, yes, if the data is such that geolocation data would matter. Friesland is a province within the Netherlands with, for instance, their own dialect, so in a study on say language acquisition it might well matter!

To interact or not to interact: The pros and cons of including interactions in linear regression models - Behavior Research Methods Interaction effects are very common in the psychological literature. However, interaction effects are typically very small and often fail to replicate. In this study, we conducted a simulation compari...

Excited to share that my first PhD paper got published! We explored the effects of correctly vs. failing to model true interactions in data. Can model misspecification lead to reversed conclusions? Which model generalizes better to a larger sample?
