1/9 Psychology often relies on WEIRD samples (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic) and results are not always generalizable. Where is psychophysiological research in terms of sample diversity? Check out this paper by Kissel and Friedman! https://t.co/WBWNt35ECs

Interested in applying MVPA decoding methods to ERP data? Want to know how it works? Looking for an easy-to-use decoding tool you can apply to your own data?

[UFMotivation&Vision @UF_brainwaves]

Highly recommended!

Useful reminder that effect sizes at small Ns are not stable, and thus are not appropriate for approximating the population ES, and thus for power analyses

For this reason, small N pilot studies generally shouldn't be used for power analyses
