fave new demonstration of survey items being really not that bad at tracking carefully-measured cognitive things: in 900,000 participants, a 5-item "how good are you at music" self-report (the colours) very directly tracks a 20min adaptive test of music perception ability (the x-axis)

a series of histograms of self-assessed music skill lined up very cleanly with music perception ability

We have a slew of special issue calls open at Psychological Science. One in particular that I’d like to draw your attention to, initiated by the marvellous @heatherurry.io and co-edited by me […]

webrarian is a new R package. It turns a folder of R scripts and data into a static website where R runs in the visitor's browser, with no compute server and nothing to install.

#rstats #webr #webassembly

A card for the R package webrarian. Large text reads "A folder in. A website out." On the left, a small card lists a folder named lab-01 holding lab.R, setup.R and a data folder. A red arrow points from it to a browser window that shows a scatterplot of car weight against miles per gallon with brick-red points. The address coatless-wasm.github.io/webrarian is on the card.

How much of a risk are LLM-generated bots for online behavioral experiments?
We present results of an entirely natural language prompt-generated agent, capable of absolving any of the 26 experiments we tested it on. Most tasks are passed with data that can pass as human osf.io/preprints/ps...
