It suits researchers or would-be researchers at all levels; perhaps best suited for someone who has had some previous stats training, but wants to refresh, expand, or adopt R. I use it to teach at Master level.

The second edition features: - Refreshed code with tidyverse and native pipe. - Improvements on factorial ANOVA and equivalence testing. - Better chapter on making figures. - New sections on writing code with AI assistance. - Many of your favourite typos removed. - And it's cheaper !

This is a complete course in statistics for psychology using R, going all the way from a first parameter estimate and statistical test to equivalence testing, generalised and mixed models, model selection, meta-analysis, specification curve analysis and more.

All chapters use real datasets from published papers and provide full code. Reproducibility and open science principles are integrated throughout, as are questions of experimental design and choosing an analysis strategy.

In poverty, do people take more or less risk? Some theories contend that they avoid risk out of caution. Others that they take risks (e.g. crime) out of desperation. In our new paper in BBS, we show that they are the two sides of the same coin: the desperation threshold. Peer commentary call soon!

NEW: We show and replicate socioeconomic gradients in heuristics for decision-making under uncertainty, possibly reflecting adaptations varying levels of scarcity and competition for resources 🫰 Shoutout and thanks to @danielnettle.bsky.social & @coraliechevallier.bsky.social ❤️‍🔥 tinyurl.com/mu7rzz6k

Do people judge what is going to happen in unknown situations differently depending on their socioeconomic position? Yes, if you experience lower socioeconomic position, you think the big rewards are even more unlikely to come your way: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

This means that when we model the effects of policies (.e.g labour market, welfare institutions) on health, we have to take into account their effect on income volatility as well as on people's average incomes

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

There are many considerations. I don't want it to seem too narrow or dry. I want to get away from the idea that data analysis is one step in the process, the boring one after the experiment is done, with no function other than getting the p-value

Laypeople often learn about science from expert explanations & those explanations often contain JARGON. Does jargon make explanations better or worse? In a paper out today in Nature Human Behaviour, @cruzf.bsky.social and I find that jargon can support illusions of understanding...
