This is a response to Erik Parens' excellent review of my book, that I published at ELSIhub.org. I thought I would reproduce it on my Substack. Erik's essay is linked, so you can read that too. Scientific Dualisms.

Check out this new paper from my lab in which we find that memory states are influenced by congruency across consecutive memory judgments.
Using EEG recordings, this study shows that memory retrieval is influenced by prior judgments, suggesting that attentional effects may affect neural retrieval states.

I both of my @uvapsychology.bsky.social Brain Mapping undergraduate courses in 2024, ~50 students, there were only two males. I think that is amazing.

Game-changer for the development of new questionnaires, surveys, assessment items, using a combination of Large Language Models and Network Psychometrics.
Items generated and validated in silica using Large Language Models have the SAME STRUCTURAL VALIDITY COMPARING COMPUTER-VALIDATION AND REAL HUMANS VALIDATION! We demonstrated that in 5 different nationally representative samples... Read below:

Check out the new paper of Dr. Nicole Long (@dorsolateralpfc.bsky.social): "Top-Down Task Goals Induce the Retrieval State".
My lab has a new paper out at jneuro showing that top-down task goals can induce the retrieval state even during novel items — suggesting that internal attention may be recruited in service of the attempt to access a stored representation. www.jneurosci.org/content/44/3...
Top-Down Task Goals Induce the Retrieval State
Engaging the retrieval state ([Tulving, 1983][1]) impacts processing and behavior ([Long and Kuhl, 2019][2], [2021][3]; [Smith et al., 2022][4]), but the extent to which top-down factors—explicit inst...

This senior role will drive COS's metascience research including assessing the state of research practice, evaluating the effectiveness of interventions to improve research practice, and delivering insights to the community and COS's departments to improve what's working and stop doing what isn't.
BIG Opportunity: Deputy Director of Research
This is a very important, new role at COS that might be perfect for someone that has been leading an academic research lab and is excited about the idea of applying those skills to assess & improve the research culture.
