The term 'executive functions' is misleading #neuropsychology in much the same way as #intelligence misled #cognitive #psychology

[Antonino Vallesi @AntoninoVallesi]

A new (#bayesian) look at the old P3 #eeg component. Congratulations @AntoninoVisalli, @EttAmbros @cogneuropsy et al. for this rewarding achievement! @PNC_UniPD https://t.co/R4DJx2Xmaq

@gerritgrosse @PRACTIS_MHH Creativity is intelligence having fun. "Data scientists" are slaves who don't kow that they are slaves. That's the true story.

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

@gerritgrosse @PRACTIS_MHH Forschung ist nicht an und für sich Wissenschaft. Stupide Datenaggregation produziert viele Publikationen, aber sie behindert theoretische Wissenschaft: Nachdenken dauert schlicht zu lange. "Data science" sei Dank, bravo.

[Gerrit M. Große @gerritgrosse]

Das traurige an der Geschichte ist, dass gerade in der jüngeren Generation diese Umstände und Dogmen häufig als gesetzt akzeptiert werden. Zeit nachzusteuern und zu überlegen, wofür wir arbeiten und was Zweck und was Mittel sind. @PRACTIS_MHH @cogneuropsy

I'm not sure whether you understood my previous tweet: I'm a clinical neuropsychologist, and also a neuropsychological scientist, but the leading neuropsychological journals are in no way helpful to me. How can that be?

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

@dasaptaerwin @Sam_D_Parsons Not sure whether or not the drawing covers the problem perfectly. At the end, the pyramids served their function. In my view, the construction of the Tower of Babel would be the better metaphor, as long as we talk about psychological science.

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

@Sam_D_Parsons Sam, I totally agree that the problem is not solely intra-psychic; the structural conditions for conducting science badly need revision, YES.

[Sam Parsons @Sam_D_Parsons]

@cogneuropsy Bruno, let's not presume that all academics are seeking fame - especially ECRs who are just trying to stay employed. It's far more reasonable to attribute the problem to job scarcity, poor incentives/judgements of quality (n pubs, impact factors), and the publishers monopoly.

[Sam Parsons @Sam_D_Parsons]

Anybody else wondering why a reddit group can disrupt wall street and bankrupt hedge funds,
but academics are powerless against the for-profit publishing system?

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

What's wrong with #neuropsychology? Why do I never read papers published in neuropsychological journals?

Following this up, our #psychology lab identified separate #ERP correlates of updating #associations between #stimulus and #response and #cognitive #tasksets, see https://t.co/tG5mkOZL6H

Latest news from our #psychology lab, #stimulus and #response contribute to #behavioral #cognitive #switchcosts, see https://t.co/dNIn7tc8uP

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

Cognitive #psychology and #associativelearning #theory should merge. The dynamics of #cognition is captured in the #RescorlaWagner model of #classicalconditioning, see https://t.co/7ZBKoclAlb

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

Stimulus-task and response-task #associative bindings limit #cognitiveflexibility, see https://t.co/ug0g6bmiTl. In a follow-up #ERPs study, we separated #neural fingerprints of updating stimulus-task and response-task bindings, see https://t.co/YinCPOFhlu

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

Sequential analyses, so abundant in #experimentalpsychology, was largely neglected in #neuropsychology studies of #cognitiveflexibility, but see https://t.co/CPwjr7Jsse

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

There is so much that #neuropsychology can learn about and from the #WCST: Decoding secrets of #cognitive #flexibility and how #brain #disease biases it, see https://t.co/mr92WJQl4X

[Bruno Kopp @cogneuropsy]

Good news for #clinical #neuropsychology: #assessment of #executivefunctioning by means of #cardsorting (M-WCST) in #clinicalneurology shows very good #reliability (#internalconsistency > .90), see https://t.co/aFJViTYLlF
