General Triage, Geolocation Data, and Registered Revisions: A Peek Under the Hood of Collabra: Psychology
This editorial comes one year after I took the reins of Collabra: Psychology from Simine Vazire. Simine led the journal from 2020 to 2023, and I have had the privilege of working with her during that ...

I am happy to announce the publication of our new work on the impact of arbitrary analytical choices on type I and type II error rates. We simulated reaction time data in a conflict task and analyzed the notable CSE effect in a multiverse manner. Worrying results:

Bayes factors for two-group comparisons in Cox regression with an application for reverse-engineering raw data from summary statistics
The use of Cox proportional hazards regression to analyze time-to-event data is ubiquitous in biomedical research. Typically, the frequentist framework is used to draw conclusions about whether haz...

Excited to share that my first PhD paper got published! We explored the effects of correctly vs. failing to model true interactions in data. Can model misspecification lead to reversed conclusions? Which model generalizes better to a larger sample?
