Thrilled to share the first Stage 2 manuscript from this @pci-regreports.bsky.social programmatic protocol, led by @zixuanjia.bsky.social. In Mandarin, we replicated song-speech differences found by @yutoozaki.bsky.social et al., and explored the mediating role of musicianship:
osf.io/gwavn_v1
Table 5. Registered Report Design Planner. Includes three hypotheses (H1-H3). Figure 5. Distributions of mean values of three acoustic features (pitch height, temporal rate, pitch stability) across singing and conversation conditions (n = 20 participants). The participants' mean acoustic values are shown as black dots, with dashed lines connecting each participant's produced speech and song. Figure 8. Scatter plots showing the correlation between effect sizes and Musicianship, in terms of self-perceived (left) and complimented by others (right) ratings. The red line represents the pitch height, blue line represents temporal rate, and green line represents pitch stability.

Is the psychology replication crisis (at last) catching up with animal cognition?

"Our results indicate low statistical power and inflated effect sizes in both primary studies and meta-analyses."

Today's email to an associate editor, declining to review for a big corporate publisher. This one focuses on Nature Publishing Group's practice of funneling rejected manuscripts to their newer journals with hefty APCs.
Dear Dr. [redacted], It was nice to meet you at the [redacted]! Thanks for thinking of me as a possible reviewer, as I am interested in the topic. However, I decline to review this manuscript - I often do this in the case of journals published by profiteering corporate publishers. For Nature Communications, Nature Publishing Group charges an outrageous US$6990 to authors that has little to do with higher-quality service or journal processes and lots to do with a legacy first-mover advantage that it uses to exploit academia. This is rentier capitalism. NPG funnels papers they reject from their most prestigious outlets to their newer subsidiary journals such as Nature Communications and Nature Communications Psychology, which academics go along with because they don’t (directly) foot the bill, and because, given the pressure academics are under to publish rapidly, they wish to take advantage of the reviews they may have already received from the higher-tier Nature journal. Because we are now live in a world where most studies can eventually be published somewhere, NPG has been able to exploit this by creating their own lower-tier journals and charging high-aspiration authors for the convenience. This practice conflicts with my interest in universities and funders not wasting their money, which is why I do not wish to support it by contributing to the hundreds of millions of dollars of labor that academics donate to corporate publishers. Instead, I preferentially review, and volunteer as an editor for, diamond open access journals that are free to read and publish in. For various reasons, including combating this strategy by which corporate publishers are extending the era in which they profiteer from university funds, many academics and funders now advocate for the Publish->Review->Curate model, in which academics publish their work immediately (on preprint servers, which prevents gatekeeping by editors), and then get it peer reviewed, preferably through low-cost…
