🚨 NEW PAPER IN @NatureHumBehav 🚨

Across contexts, we find a counterintuitive #FormalityEffect: Formal government communications are more effective than informal ones at shifting residents’ behavior.

Minister Freeland Wastes $10 Billion on Big Oil’s Carbon Capture Fantasy 🌍💔 Breaking rules, greenwashing, and more oil? The proposed CCUS tax credit is a $10B step back, not forward. 📢 Read more: https://t.co/AxqK6rJsDA

[Julia Levin @lev_jf]

In 2022, @cafreeland said the #CCUS tax credit wouldn't subsidize projects that use carbon for oil production

A broken promise: the tax credit will subsidize projects that sell up to **90%** of captured carbon for EOR

Great reporting @benshingler

Can the engineers just take a little break from developing AI and maybe implement a usable search function for Microsoft Outlook?

@J_R_Schroeder Bravo!!! 👏👏👏 A critical project, both for science and for the people (especially ECRs) doing the science. Thank you!!!

Loved the Circle Practice at #BigDifferenceBC!! Thanks @StephPapik!!!

📢 New working paper alert! With the help of more than 700 volunteer reviewers, we (@MilosFisar, @chrhuber_, @elena_katok, @ozkesali and myself) assessed the reproducibility of ~500 articles published in the journal Management Science. Some results. 📊🔍 #Reproducibility

@andre_quentin I once reported concerns in my comments to the editor in peer review. Paper was rejected, and the editor alluded to anomalies in the decision letter to the authors. I don't think anything else happened.

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

👀Yikes, a huge amount of social science (and market research) relies on surveying humans on platforms like Mechnical Turk... except over 30% of human workers on both platforms are just using AI.

This new paper finds the same size problem on the more curated Prolific platform.

I wrote a post-mortem on the Gino-Ariely scandal: How I came to suspect Gino’s work, the resistance I met during my Ph.D., my experience working with Data Colada, and the lessons I hope business academia will learn from it.

"b-hacking" revealed in the FTX trial yesterday. Could be a way to spot potential fraud in business! Look for numbers just over $1m or just over $1b.

@PsychScience @siminevazire Wow this is amazing news! Thank you for your service, @siminevazire !!!

Weird ad for pre-registration in my timeline. Open science advocacy has taken a strange turn. "Together, we brave the 'Storm' together" is a great slogan, though!

[David Hardisty @dhardisty]

@AaronCharlton @stephaniemlee Yeah that's what I thought -- if you delete "inconvenient" data, it makes your results stronger of course. So her refutation here seems illogical to me.

[William Deresiewicz @WDeresiewicz]

This is jaw-dropping. It seems that everything I thought I knew about the cost of college is wrong.

@stephaniemlee @thecrimson Keep in mind that IP addresses can easily be manipulated, through VPNs, for example. Also, as @andre_quentin mentioned, this doesn't explain the discrepancy between the original Qualtrics data and the publicly posted data.
