I couldn't easily find any of the authors in BlueSky -- happy to tag any authors, though? Great but deeply sad work.

And Nature Neuroscience ( @natneuro.nature.com )? You were an early adopter of reporting reforms! I believed in you. But anyone can see your authors fill in your reporting forms in their sleep, and that reviewers/editors ignore them. Such a shame. An editorial response in print? Seems needed.

I know finding statistical malpractice in the published literature is like shooting fish in a barrel, but this one still really makes me sad. The papers are from 2022... has the needle moved so little from the start of the reform efforts?

The analysis examined correlation coefficients reported in 2022 issues of Science, Nature, and Nature Neuroscience.
Of 177 articles mentioning strength of correlation, 45% relied solely on point estimates; 53% only reported the p value to accompany these claims!
What are we even doing here?

But adjusting his tie during a tank romp through a city… peak bond, in my opinion

Don’t know. My use is primarily reading for pleasure. I have Zotero on my boox and it seems to run well, but papers rarely win over my book collection so can’t really say.

Love the boox air. Sleek, powerful, great battery life. I use Calibre sync to pull my whole epub and pdf library from Dropbox onto my boox. It is awesome.

Of course, esci remains available in R (cran.r-project.org/web/packages...) and as a modules in @jamovi.bsky.social. So whatever your preferred platform, you can generate estimates and beautiful estimation-focused figures. Enjoy!

To use: Download JASP 0.95.0 for your platform, start it, and in the available modules list, scroll down to find and enable ESCI. Viola, you will have an ESCI menu.
(Note: the JASP team went with upper-case; guess they wanted to shout out how much the love the module)

It is very hard to say what works with correct specificity. How would we ever detect these bizarre equipment effects if we didn’t publish and think critically about failed experiments?
