What are standardized standard errors and why are they useful but ignored?

Inferential statistics in psychology lacks a unified practice. Debates about statistical inference tend to organize around a 2 × 2 structure: one dimension distinguishes frequentist from Bayesian appr...
Shining a little well-deserved spotlight on our Chair @sajedehra.bsky.social today. We're lucky to have such talented people on our board!
Huh.

With Deborah Mayo, Kent Staley, and Wendy Parker we are editing a special issue of Synthese on "Severity and Learning from Error": link.springer.com/collections/... Deadline for submissions is the 15th of December, 2026. If this is a topic that you are interested in, consider contributing!
If you prefer to read open access texts, then read our more extensive overview (submitted to Meta-Psychology) here: osf.io/preprints/ps...
I'm extremely proud of the excellent work Sajedeh is doing - she is an incredibly talented young scholar.

This Topical Collection examines how inquiry learns from error by focusing on a basic principle of evidence in science, statistics, medicine, law, ...
Should researchers still be posting their data openly online? It’s a question being debated by some researchers now that bots are routinely mining open-access databases and scientific publications to train artificial-intelligence tools'.
My PhD Sajedeh Rasti has published a World View piece in Nature today: "Don’t compete, collaborate: why collective funding applications are the future" www.nature.com/articles/d41... She discusses how she successfully brought together a team of meta-scientists to collaboratively apply for funding.

The snowballing ability of artificial intelligence to trawl open data sets has some scientists worried about losing control of their information.
What happens when researchers stop competing for funding?
Twenty Dutch metascientists replaced competition with collaboration for NWO grant applications, proving collective approaches can outperform individual ones.
