Is good.

Based on the available information it appears that the points on p.3 apply to any preprint, not just pci:rr. I don't know if Wiley has responded to this yet.

1. Authors post their manuscript on a preprint server and then immediately submit to a Wiley journal. After each round of peer review they update the version of the preprint simultaneously with submitting their revised manuscript to the journal – a common practice in many fields. The latest version of the preprint is therefore identical to the
version that is under consideration by the journal. Where the article is eventually accepted by the journal, the final version of the preprint is materially identical to the accepted version of the manuscript.

2. An editor of a Wiley journal writes an editorial (or other un-reviewed piece such as a Comment) and posts it on a preprint server prior to submitting it to the journal. The article is immediately accepted without any changes, therefore the article published by the Wiley journal is identical to the preprinted version of the article.

3. Authors post their manuscript on a preprint server and submit to a Wiley journal where it undergoes in-depth peer review. The reviews are very positive, requiring only a single minor correction to fix a typographic error. The original preprint is therefore materially identical to the accepted and published version.

I remember reading a blog post somewhat recently on here arguing that for open science practices every effort counts. So we should not expect every paper to fulfil all open science criteria immediately but researcher should start by making their data open, then their code, etc. Anyone has a link?

We examine the prevalence and psychological correlates of lay beliefs in physiognomy - the idea that a person's character is reflected in their facial appearance.

NEW: Statement from the PCI RR Managing Board on the withdrawal of Infant and Child Development as a PCI RR-friendly journal, and the decision by Wiley to refuse preprints that have been peer-reviewed by @peercommunityin.bsky.social / @pci-regreports.bsky.social

Read here ➡️ osf.io/tn8mh

In 2024, Infant and Child Development (ICD) withdrew as a PCI RR-friendly journal and reneged on three Stage 1 recommendations issued by PCI RR. In addition, Wiley – the publisher of ICD – notified PCI RR and the PCI core team of its decision to withdraw all Wiley journals from PCI and PCI RR, including an additional 9 PCI-friendly journals. Finally, Wiley appears to have banned all of its ~1600 journals from considering submissions that have been previously reviewed by PCI or PCI RR. This statement explains the history of ICD joining PCI RR and developments that led to the current outcome. The PCI RR Managing Board believes that this shift in policy to become “PCI-hostile” renders Wiley journals incompatible not only with community-based preprint review but with preprint archiving in general.

Yup, that's exactly it.

Bibliography formatting: the real reason it takes ten years of higher ed to get a PhD.

I think that's a partial eta squared right? It's used a lot in anova but kinda tricky when you have non-controlled covariates (ES inflates with your covariates). Would probably avoid along with other standardized "effect sizes".

Matti Vuorre @matti.vuorre.com · 2d

Yeah, very interesting thanks. Great to see that you've included these per-stimulus plots in the paper too!

What's the tab-autocomplete-index for kruschke? Gelman? (Look forward to reading this.)

Ive always listened to a lot of internet radio (somafm.com/player24/sta... is legendary) but we also recently bought a physical radio and are loving it. Random ads? Check. No choice over music? Check. This actually makes it less distracting ime

This is absolutely why I've been feeling better about myself lately. I always ask "extremely important" and "insightful" questions, and my answers frequently "nail it 💯".

🚨 New preprint 🚨

Across 3 experiments (n = 3,285), we found that interacting with sycophantic (or overly agreeable) AI chatbots entrenched attitudes and led to inflated self-perceptions.

Yet, people preferred sycophantic chatbots and viewed them as unbiased!

It does look better but is still extremely slow and has inappropriately low information density. Hoping for these to improve. We consistently get ~10kb/s download speeds which is not fun for large data.

Matti Vuorre @matti.vuorre.com · 6d

And yes this comment absolutely made before reading the paper, but curious if it's something you thought about here too.

Super cool, thanks for sharing. I remember thinking about something related; is it possible that the pattern reflects some kind of missingness? In the top panel, it might just be really hard to get stimuli that elicit ratings for the top left and bottom right corners?

This is great. I really like how well tinytable works across different formats.
