This is schmeasurement's Dead Salmon fMRI study:
A cautionary tale of how standard research practices can produce misleading results.
I love it. Immediately putting it on my reading lists.

In a new paper, my colleagues and I set out to demonstrate how method biases can create spurious findings in relationship science, by using a seemingly meaningless scale (e.g., "My relationship has very good Saturn") to predict relationship outcomes. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
Pseudo Effects: How Method Biases Can Produce Spurious Findings About Close Relationships - Samantha Joel, John K. Sakaluk, James J. Kim, Devinder Khera, Helena Yuchen Qin, Sarah C. E. Stanton, 2025

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

Glad to make it back to @scsmi.bsky.social conference at @ualberta.bsky.social! A diverse group of scholars united by the love of cinema. Was great to finally meet (in person) the other PIs and co-investigators on our current project - @aeden.bsky.social, Dr Carl Plantinga and Dr Murray Smith.

New preprint 🎉: How do episodic memory, emotions, and schemas for caregiver experiences come together in kids’ brains and verbal recall? Check out our new results showing how past and present childhood experiences shape perception and memory for movies: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Past and present caregiving experiences impact prefrontal connectivity and recall for attachment-schema narratives
We investigated how past and current caregiving experiences impacted emotional event processing by examining inter-subject functional correlation in 7- to 15-year-olds during narrative movies depictin...
