Teaching stats and working on schmeasurement. From NKU to JMU to UCONN to York to McGill. Now doing quant psych stuff @UBCPsych. Into big team and open science.

[JK Flake 📈📏 @JkayFlake]

One of the biggest challenges to doing Big Team Science is measurement - how do we know if constructs exist across cultures and if so, how can we accurately translate items to measure them? We did a large scale investigation with the @PsySciAcc !

The PICKLE FANATICISM scale 🤣 I'm dead 💀

What an ABSOLUTE BANGER from @l_j_alley and @JkayFlake! Such a great tool for teaching measurement theory in a practical and engaging way. I will immediately be adopting this!

https://t.co/ss7q5GD5FL

[JK Flake 📈📏 @JkayFlake]

@PsychRabble Hopefully this will change!

[JK Flake 📈📏 @JkayFlake]

Are you working on issues of replication and reproducibility of methodological research in psychology? Consider submitting a proposal to my call for papers, happy to chat about your ideas or answer any questions! https://t.co/s9X4WVqP7V

Robustness analysis is going to be a big part of the future of how we think about evidence synthesis and rigor - exciting new journal where you can turn your blog posts of other ways the analyses could have been done into papers! Excited to see some submissions come in!

[František Bartoš @BartosFra]

We just launched a diamond open-access journal called Journal of Robustness Reports!

The journal will publish short reanalyses of published empirical research findings.

For those with experience on the non-academic job market: how common do you think it is to receive a verbal job offer, then via verbal/email negotiation (a couple of emails about salary range), have the offered rescinded and never get an actual job offer in writing?

[Daniël Lakens @lakens]

"Replication is more like reliability, it is not like validity. It is not worth replicating research that is invalid."

[Psicostat @psicostat]

Day 2 🚀

We continued our journey with an insightful session by @lakens , discussing the importance of Registered Reports.✨ Then, @JkayFlake took the stage diving into measurement not shmeasurement, challenging us to think critically about how we measure what matters ⚡️

[JK Flake 📈📏 @JkayFlake]

So excited for this conference!

[Denny Borsboom @BorsboomDenny]

@EikoFried Please send contact info for other jflakes SVP

[JK Flake 📈📏 @JkayFlake]

Super grateful to @EikoFried @BorsboomDenny @JelteWicherts for answering my emails and taking part in hosting my visit. It has been a professional dream of mine to hang out with these folks and I'm nervous and excited to share some of my unpublished crazy ideas!

[JK Flake 📈📏 @JkayFlake]

I'll be at Social and Behavioural Data Science Center at the University of Amsterdam for a couple of weeks. I'm giving a lecture on Monday Feb 24th (https://t.co/mryqHFkbzr) anyone can attend. Hope to meet up with some people while I'm in town to talk methods and measurement.

[Jörg Ankel-Peters @jrgptrs]

We are looking for RAs to work with us on a new meta-science & replication project, joint with @I4Replication, now with focus on environmental (economics) topics such as air pollution & carbon pricing. RAs can work remotely but must be located in Germany https://t.co/0CIc9gyBWR

@PsychRabble I think Eric is thinking about how to move forward with it. I'm in the back seat.

[JK Flake 📈📏 @JkayFlake]

It is an honor for anyone to care enough about your work to check it, so thanks dudes. A mistake I suggest others not make is failing to ensure that all the data, from download, to merge, to analysis is available and each step, not just the final analysis, is reproducible.
