Number 1 is a big one and why recipe book statistics courses are not helpful when training the next generation of scientists. Statistical thinking is critical!

New preprint! Low prevalence of a priori power analyses in motor behavior research Link: doi.org/10.51224/SRXIV… We combed through over 700 articles published between 2019 and mid-2021 to investigate the prevalence of power analyses in recently published studies. Thread… 🧵

New preprint! 📢 We tried to reproduce every power analysis reported in three motor behavior journals between 2019 and mid-2021. If we allowed ourselves to make plausible guesses for missing parameters, then 43% were reproducible. Link: doi.org/10.51224/SRXIV… A thread…🧵

A well-written scientific paper does not build up suspense, it blasts the main results in at least 7 ways, starting with the title. The main results are also stated in the abstract, the introduction, the results section, the discussion, the conclusions, and of course the figures.

Ever have feelings of doubt figuring out how many participants a study will need? Ever ask a student for a power analysis...because you don't know how? Don't worry NASPSPA members, there is a cure: Sign up for the #NASPSPA2023 pre-conference workshop on Sample Size Planning!

Exciting news! Our latest project has been published in Nature Human Behaviour. We call for a reevaluation of the cognitive benefits of physical exercise. Endless thanks Rafael Román-Caballero @mavadillo.bsky.social Darías Holgado Antonio Luque Casado Pandelis Perakakis @SanabriaLucenaD for their contributions. More below ⬇️

Friends, it would be absolutely *fantastic* if you were adequately powered to pursue a d = .30 with a sample size of N = 12 per group (with α = .05, 1-β = .80). Unfortunately, you need N = 176 per group. Stay critical.

We want an undistorted comparison of internal and external focus with an eye on understanding when focus is most important. It’s called Many Motor Labs and we invite you to join us on this project. DM me for more information. NASPSPA #OpenScience manymotorlabs.org

Very honoured to have received such tremendous doctoral training. Thank you for all your support over the last five years Mike Carter. Onto the next adventure!
