It would have been an absolute pleasure to be able to join you at Donostia! But it was already a pleasure to interact & present the work that we have been developing at #UnivCoimbra to recognize & reward masters & PhD candidates for reproducible reusable & open research! #TREASURE #CoARABoost #pilot
This afternoon @inesatalmeida.bsky.social delivered a powerful keynote on rewarding early-career researchers for reproducible, open practices. It deeply resonated with the community!
Grateful to Inês for joining us despite being ill! : )

Germany decided not to turn its back on privacy, at the last minute. We're very happy for that.
But we're not out of the woods yet, and awareness raising like this is essential.

We're so relieved to see Germany reaffirm its opposition to the dangerous Chat Control proposal--the one that would mandate mass scanning of communications. Germany's long been a solid champion of privacy, and the news that it was considering backing mass surveillance was alarming. 1/

We haven’t solved the problem of human motivation because it’s unsolvable (in current form). A solution: Motivation centers on a single source of value - affect.

Quantitative studies are not valid. Rather, we make an argument for the validity of inferences from such studies. This checklist can help authors consider aspects of the validity argument as they design their study. (1/2) #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky
