me, as someone who knows little to none about consciousness, watching the consciousness/pseudoscience debate 😬

For the first time in my life, I got interviewed by two radio stations about our project on sleep and DRM false memory. I never got nervous giving conference talks, but I was *so* nervous at these interviews. The questions were also the least expected! Amazing experience!

Very pleased that our registered report on the effect of sleep on DRM false memory is finally out. We found modest evidence that sleep may be involved in gist processing/spreading activation. w/ Gareth Gaskell and @aidanhorner royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/full/10.10…

Excited to announce that today marks the beginning of a new chapter as an Assistant Professor at Warwick Psychology. Couldn't hv asked for a better department to work in - so many great minds and supportive colleagues. Deepest gratitude to my mentors Kate Nation and Gareth Gaskell 💐

Career goal: Co-author with someone whose last name is Matthew, so we can produce a Matthew and Mak (20XX) 😹

Honoured to hv hosted my academic idol Dorothy Bishop @ Warwick Psychology. D gave a phenomenal talk (as usual) on quasi cumulative science. Love her point on obsession w/ groundbreakingness: there'll be too many holes on ground if everyone does groundbreaking research—nothing to stand on

🔔 New preprint alert ‼️ In this pre-registered experiment with Matthew Mak, Robert Hepach & Kate Nation, we investigated how emotional narrative context influences novel adjectives learning. doi.org/10.31219/osf.i…

A last farewell from Dana Gablasova. What a few days it’s been! #LancsSS24 For anyone interested in studying corpus linguistics further, the MOOC in Corpus Linguistics takes place in Sept 2024 and various degree programs are also available. Information on these can be seen below:

Had a great time at this very intensive summer school in corpus linguistics. Exceptional speakers and impressive work CASS. Highly recommend this summer school for all those interested.

Gutted that I missed the first two days. But very pleased that some people stayed for my talk even though it was the absolute final talk of the meeting. Had a great time back at York. EPS is the best.

Will start lecturing in Sep (first-time!). Just found out that my lectures will be 6-7pm on a Thurs, and 4-5pm on a Fri. Wish me luck

So apparently this recent paper showing that open science practices can help increase replicability was just retracted by Nature Human Behavior. Reason appears to be that authors could not find their preregistration? nature.com/articles/s4156…

1st time lecturing. 200+ students. Man, it's a tough job, standing there talking to mostly blank faces. Felt so rewarding though when there is an occasional nod/smile. Students who asked questions after lecture and/or left wonderful comments on email/feedback — thank you!

Have been doing a lot corpus work lately. Struck by the degree of researcher freedom in corpus analysis. Wrote a short article on why I think pre-registration will be beneficial to #corpuslinguistics. Maybe of interest, CASS? #OpenScience sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
