After 5 years of data collection, our WARN-D machine learning competition to forecast depression onset is now LIVE! We hope many of you will participate—we have incredibly rich data.

If you share a single thing of my lab this year, please make it this competition.

Against Language Barriers: A Call to Protect International Education in Dutch Academia

An open letter supporting the international bachelor’s psychology programs threatened for cuts. Proceeding with these cuts would damage some of the most important and impactful psychology departments globally. #supportdutchpsychology

A bright purple field with the Open Access icon and the text: I’ve signed! We need a future-proof approach to Open Access publishing in The Netherlands.  Read, sign, and spread the petition!

Are you ready for a future of publishing that embraces community-driven Open Science values? Sign the Call to Commitment Petition now!

Together we can drive meaningful change. #futureproofOA #openaccess #openscience #responsibleresearch

Ever had really great discussions during a hackathon and gone home thinking others could also benefit from the ideas bounced around? Inspired by @simine.com's garage analogy, we thought about how to coordinate scientific self-correction. See our ‘hackathon proceedings’ osf.io/preprints/me...

New article by @cathleenogrady.bsky.social showing that Harvard Prof Gino likely not only made up data but also plagiarized. One case is thesis supervised by @annaveer.bsky.social.

Brief summary in this thread:

#AcademicSky #PsychSciSky #metasci 🧪

Since #OSR24NL there is now a FOERRT bot on Mastodon (mastodon.social/@FORRT_bot@b...) that highlights syllabi and courses about #OpenScience, #Reproducibility and related subjects. These materials are Open Educational Resources #OER that have been collected in @FORRT’s curated resources.

Outputs created at #OSR24NL #openscience retreat can be found in a collection at ResearchEquals (R=), a modular scholarly publishing platform for diverse/intermediate outputs. The first item in the collection is about "persona non grata" see www.researchequals.com/collections/...

Instead of only proposing how to do research—in this case how to select claims that need #replication— in a paper, we invite alternatives, improvements, criticisms in commentaries, creating open dialogue instead of black box reviews open.lnu.se/index.php/me... #metascience #OpenReview

Interested in replication research? Consider writing a commentary for the next special issue in Meta-Psychology which will publish critiques of the article "Replication value as a function of citation impact and sample size": open.lnu.se/index.php/me...

Pressures in academia driving apart goal of science and goal of individual, making it important to recommit to principles in order to make circles overlap and enhance intrinsic motivation to work in the benefit of science and society.

Academia wouldn't be as good a place without you
@eikofried.bsky.social, having friends like you is my antidote to cynicism creep. All go read Eiko's blog on what keeps him going despite problems in science. I am biased and privileged, but #openscience about it. eiko-fried.com/antidotes-to...

@annaveer.bsky.social @lakens.bsky.social Thed van Leeuwen and I applied a method for quantifying "replication value" on a large sample of fMRI articles in social neuroscience, to see if the method is practically feasible. Open access version of our attempt is now online: doi.org/10.1016/j.co...

Forthcoming in Cortex Several methods for identifying high-value replication targets have been proposed, but we need to show that these can be implemented in practice. In paper with @lakens.bsky.social and @annaveer.bsky.social we assess the feasibility of one method (RVcn): osf.io/preprints/me...
