Do people judge what is going to happen in unknown situations differently depending on their socioeconomic position? Yes, if you experience lower socioeconomic position, you think the big rewards are even more unlikely to come your way: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

This means that when we model the effects of policies (.e.g labour market, welfare institutions) on health, we have to take into account their effect on income volatility as well as on people's average incomes

In a new paper, we show from longitudinal UK and France data that income volatility (fluctatuations month to month) are bad for mental and general health. And it is much badder than you would expect given the lowness of the low months:

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

Also, I hope it will be a fun read and students will learn something about the field. So all in all a hard title to identify.

I also cover loads of stuff about theories, hypotheses, pre-registration, experimental design, open science, etc., so it is not just how to do a t-test etc. That's actually quite a small part.

Instead I stress how data analysis is a critical link in the process of turning your question into an answer; you need to be thinking about it already at the stage of study design

There are many considerations. I don't want it to seem too narrow or dry. I want to get away from the idea that data analysis is one step in the process, the boring one after the experiment is done, with no function other than getting the p-value
