What is new in PsyToolkit 3.6.2 YouTube video by PsyToolkit

The new beta for PsyToolkit 3.6.2 is ready to check out. Watch this short video about some of the highlights in this new exciting version: youtu.be/xpB5vMRhwz8

Which begs the question how are people expected to develop track records to be able to apply for grants and harm even established researchers collecting feasibility data to support grants etc.

Universities starting to ask how much research they can actually afford to do as the financial crisis in the sector deepens. Certainly, it is beginning to seem likely that 'unfunded' research may no longer be possible.
www.researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-u...

The 3.6.0 version has had a few small improvements in the code. Especially, when saving or recompiling a survey, the scroll position of the window is saved. Also, a new color scheme for surveys has been added. Let us know if you have any issues with these things.

What a wonderful afternoon celebrating the vibrant connection between researchers, students, and the public!
We premiered 'Like Yesterday' - a short film where older participants from University of Third Age shared their childhood #memories through #movement. Their reflections deeply moved us.

3. For anyone who isn’t on X, my thesis is titled ‘Olfactory Ethics: The Politics of Smell in Modern and Contemporary Prose’. I’ll include the abstract here so everyone can see which texts I worked on and a summary of my ideas.

Open-concept working spaces with hot-desks are a neurodivergent nightmare. Thankful for noise-cancelling headphones that got me through uni placement. Another fine example of a lack of consultation with our community. Little wonder we're resisting going 'back to the office'. #neurodivergent
