Any #PhDSky folk out there with shocking memories? How do you cope in academic debates? I find it hard to remember the names of theorists and papers, so find myself stumbling around words. I’m not stupid, I just don’t have a great memory for things like that. How do I style it out? Any tips?

📣 This may be a long shot, but let me try.

I’m seeking some volunteer interviewees to discuss any experiences with grant peer review (as reviewers/panelists) over the next 2-3 weeks.

If you have any direct experience and would like to help with my #Metascience study, DM me.

“In Germany in the 1930s, scientific institutions and societies failed at every level to offer any significant resistance to Nazism.

…The scientific community needs to speak up – not just for the sake of science, but of human decency, dignity and morality.”

Scientific institutions have a long history of anticipatory obedience
Societies should learn from this and speak up to support inclusion

I can't say enough good things about @ingorohlfing.bsky.social 's excellent "Case Studies and Causal Inference: An Integrative Framework" book.

I discuss case studies a lot as a form of research design and as a method in itself, and Ingo's book helps me do so quite nicely.

Tägliche Erinnerung daran, dass Menschen besser sind als ihr Ruf.
Frag sie in Meinungsforschungsumfragen oder in den Kommentarspalten und sie werden grob und dumm erscheinen. Setz dich aber mit ihnen hin, sprich offen und hör zu, und die meisten haben gute Herzen und machen sich ihre Gedanken.
