Is there a science version of "no true Scotsman"? You know, when someone says "well of course you didn't get the effect I found, you probably didn't do the study right like I did". I've seen it mostly in the arguments around ego depletion, just wondering if it has a name.

Today's #PsychologyMonth tweet comes for @AlexanderPsyc, Ph.D. candidate and member of the @ReadyLab_CU! Sean wants to understand why people scoring high on measures of neuroticism, on average, tend to experience more alcohol problems than a typical person... (1/2)

Congratulations to @DrAndreaHoward and co-investigator @MarinaMilyav! Their CIHR Project Grant has been funded!!!

@PritchardPsych I could if you wanted, I am sure that it will be of minimal use to you though. I have a suspicion you are already familiar with regression

Really shows me in my element, where I'm my best: talking about my own opinions
