I went to Rotterdam for a reproducibility therapy session with @lakens.bsky.social. I am happy to report that the patient is doing much better—maybe due to a placebo effect. Who knows.

The subject chose carrot cake. Sigh. But, I think this study was underpowered and needs to be replicated. In this case I’m entirely okay with a conceptual replication.

Now that the subject has been primed, we will administer our first experiment. When forced to choose between lemon and carrot cake which will be preferred???

In fact, it shows exactly that. Here's the screenshot from Bleidorn et al., 2022 created by Dr. Briley. Both age and time are very important for the story. Even in adolescence, over shorter time windows, things are pretty consistent. Over long time windows everything becomes less consistent.

I’ve failed to pursue the brezel pizza yet. Still just making bread.

Has anyone pointed out to Haidt and Twenge the perfect correlation between the decline in popularity of the humanities and the purported decline in adolescent well being. I mean its a possibility.
