1/20 Dear friends, I need to draw your attention to something super bad and super important (and it doesn’t originate from Russia for once). Last week the EU has taken a shockingly stupid and damaging decision to close down national corporate registers of beneficial owners 🧵🧵🧵
Tweeps, any good paper providing an account for the seemingly robust difference in East vs. West cultures in producing dispositional inferences (fundamental attribution error)? Thanks.
We are pleased to announce the 14th Dubrovnik Conference on Cognitive Science, devoted to the topic of 'Mechanisms of Collective Decision-making for Cooperative Actions', taking place between 18 and 21 May 2023, Dubrovnik, Croatia. (ducog.cecog.eu)
We developed an iPad game for studying some aspects of social cognition (especially, partner choice) in children (and also in adults). The app is free to use for interested researchers. See cdc.ceu.edu/cocollectors
Massive status bias in peer review.
534 reviewers randomized to review the same paper revealing the low status, high status, or neither author. 65% reject low status, 23% reject high status.
Amazing work by Juergen Huber and colleagues. #prc9
Nowadays I have the feeling that the editors just check the reviewers’ verdicts without considering their arguments (for or against the paper) before themselves decide what action to take. 3/4
This is why I always (try to) refuse to recommend a decision: Editors, please read my arguments, consider their validity, and make up your own mind. 4/4
