For teaching purposes, I changed my font size in RStudio as well as my cursor to both being pretty huge. I’m done teaching but I think of keeping both… should I see my optician 🧐

I’m teaching an #RBootcamp this weekend, an intro to R for beginners. Love that the Fachschaft in Konstanz shared some fab #RStats stickers with us, but I will hopefully work against the message, which reads “I can't do/take it anymore.”

Our paper on improving statistical reporting in psychology is now online 🎉

As a part of this paper, we also created the Transparent Statistical Reporting in Psychology checklist, which researchers can use to improve their statistical reporting practices

www.nature.com/articles/s44...
Transparent and comprehensive statistical reporting is critical for ensuring the credibility, reproducibility, and interpretability of psychological research. This paper offers a structured set of guidelines for reporting statistical analyses in quantitative psychology, emphasizing clarity at both the planning and results stages. Drawing on established recommendations and emerging best practices, we outline key decisions related to hypothesis formulation, sample size justification, preregistration, outlier and missing data handling, statistical model specification, and the interpretation of inferential outcomes. We address considerations across frequentist and Bayesian frameworks and fixed as well as sequential research designs, including guidance on effect size reporting, equivalence testing, and the appropriate treatment of null results. To facilitate implementation of these recommendations, we provide the Transparent Statistical Reporting in Psychology (TSRP) Checklist that researchers can use to systematically evaluate and improve their statistical reporting practices (https://osf.io/t2zpq/). In addition, we provide a curated list of freely available tools, packages, and functions that researchers can use to implement transparent reporting practices in their own analyses to bridge the gap between theory and practice. To illustrate the practical application of these principles, we provide a side-by-side comparison of insufficient versus best-practice reporting using a hypothetical cognitive psychology study. By adopting transparent reporting standards, researchers can improve the robustness of individual studies and facilitate cumulative scientific progress through more reliable meta-analyses and research syntheses.

Last week I had an interview for a scholarship, and today I received an email saying that I didn't get the funding. It's really disappointing, especially after I made it to the interview stage. I still like the idea though, so I’ll make the best out of it.

In seahorses, males are the ones to bear offspring. But how does this work? A research team led by #UniKonstanz evolutionary biologist Axel Meyer examined the cellular basis for "male pregnancy". Surprisingly, androgens (male sexual hormones) play a central role. Full story: https://t1p.de/auvcl

We are doing a pilot survey about how prospective PhD students in PSYCHOLOGY make decisions about applying to grad programs. If you are thinking of applying to a program in the future, and have 2-5 minutes to spare, could you take this survey? 🫶

The last days, I visited Würzburg for the first meeting of the project “What Is Psychology - Really?” by @mfjsperl.bsky.social and @dgps.bsky.social 🧠

Had an inspiring exchange with scientists from the different disciplines of psychology and am looking forward to the next meeting in Leipzig!
