PSA: All #rstats package on #cran will get an official DOI!

This will facilitate bibliometrics and giving credit to  package authors.

Registering all 20,000+ packages will still take a few more days. But the first couple of thousand are already live. Example:

New preprint "Simulation Studies for Methodological Research in Psychology: A Standardized Template for Planning, Preregistration, and Reporting"

In our review of 100 simulation studies published in prominent methodological journals in psychology, we find that most articles do not justify the number of simulation repetitions, do not report Monte Carlo uncertainty, and do not provide code or computational details.

📅 Save the date!

We are pleased to announce that useR! 2024 will be a hybrid conference, taking place 8-11 July in Salzburg, Austria.

We will share the conference website and social media accounts in due course.

New paper "Evidential Calibration of Confidence Intervals" with @EJWagenmakers and Alexander Ly

Most researchers are familiar with confidence and credible intervals, but there is also an alternative, lesser-known interval type that can be motivated from both a likelihoodist and Bayesian perspective - the support interval. We show how to compute different types of support intervals in common situations and how they relate to confidence intervals.

Which questionable research practices exist in simulation studies? How can they affect the conclusions of the study and how can we avoid them? Learn more at https://doi.org/10.1002/bimj.202200091

I am really proud of this publication with Lucas Kook (@kook ) and Kelly Reeve - the result of a passion project during our PhDs!
