Really nice new paper by Jingyu Zhang, Oliver Lüdtke, and Alexander Robitzsch on the performance of doubly robust estimators of the ATE. A great example of clear writing and reporting, useful visualization through tables, and a review of modern literature. osf.io/5uj2f_v2

This rigorous and critical meta-analysis of the existing experimental research on the effects of ChatGPT on learning and higher-order thinking may be more valuable for the critiques of the literature it raises than its findings. Kudos! doi.org/10.1016/j.co... #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky

Our global study on the state of trust in scientists is now out in Nature Human Behaviour! 🥳
