Week 9 of Francis Bacon’s epistemology: it is conventionally understood that Bacon championed experimental observation. What is often neglected is that his empiricism was EXTREMELY cautious. E.g. he describes in detail and w/examples ~30 DISTINCT KINDS of observation.

I am thrilled to share our new paper which investigates the role of continuous measures in linguistic diversity research. We found that children who are exposed to more linguistic diversity (e.g., language, dialect, accent) are perceptually more flexible. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

People are often asked to self-evaluate their abilities, and these evaluations may not always reflect objective reality. Here, we investigated this issue for bilingual adults’ self-evaluations of lang...

Bottom line: %use self-evals were less biased than value-laden (how good am I?) self-evals.

%use wins, to us!
