Statistical Education in the 21st Century: A Review of Challenges, Teaching Innovations and Strategies for Reform Over the past few decades there has been a large amount of research dedicated to the teaching of statistics. The impact of this research has started to change course content and structure, in both ...

But it's real. Students bring a ton of anxiety around statistics and the math behind it into the courses. And our training infrastructure sucks.

This paper is a really nice overview of the challenges we face in statistics education.

Spent some time today playing around with the #Rstats package orchaRd 2.0

It offers a really nice way of visualizing #metaanalysis, especially moderator meta-regression models (with both categorical & continuous moderators!) #dataviz

In intro grad class, I still (yes) have students read Baron & Kenny(1986)

Make sure all get mediation vs moderation

But it's awfully dated, especially statistically. (Sobels; tested in sep regressions)

Recommendation for new Masters students to read & discuss in class?

Anyway, I really feel like the whole environment, including the state of the published literature, is really colluding against students learning how to do proper research. That’s a shame; I always have the impression our students really do want to learn how to do things the right way.

📣We are excited to announce that FORRT is one of the few initiatives worldwide to be formally endorsed as a Programme of the International Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development (IDSSD, 2024–2033)! 🎉

Preparing this talk gave me an opportunity to reflect on what lessons I've learned from psychology's replication crisis and credibility revolution, and what advice I would have for other fields. We've come a long way!

I'll be running a free, online workshop at @rinpharma.bsky.social on Nov 3rd!

If you've never built an #RStats package before, or if you want to learn some tips to make better packages, come along to build a package together! 📦

We built the openESM database:
▶️60 openly available experience sampling datasets (16K+ participants, 740K+ obs.) in one place
▶️Harmonized (meta-)data, fully open-source software
▶️Filter & search all data, simply download via R/Python

Check Scientific Papers for Best Practices A modular, extendable system for automatically checking scientific papers for best practices using text search, R code, and/or (optional) LLM queries.

Please help us, #MetaScience community!

It's time to decide on a forever name for papercheck (scienceverse.github.io/papercheck/). We don't want it to be confused with papercheck.ai, and we plan to check other research artifacts like repo contents, data, code, and prereg. Any suggestions?

📣 PSA I've been wanting to say for a while.

Not everyone is an expert programmer or coder, and that's okay. People can still do good, reproducible research without using the fanciest methods or the coolest tools.

Low tech tools ≠ You can't do good work

At the FORRT Replication Hub, our mission is to support researchers who want to replicate previous findings. We have now published a big new component with which we want to fulfill this mission: An open access handbook for reproduction and replication studies: forrt.org/replication_...
