Gaze and face information interact when catching our attention. Thanks for the great collaboration @BreilChristina @DerRobrecht @DrTimWelsh Roxana Pittig and @RaettigTim!
Does eye-contact always attract attention? Not in every case, as a research team @Uni_WUE, Institute of #Psychology, has recently shown. Why not? Because context matters. Journal of Experimental Psychology @AnneBockler idwf.de/-DDpwAC

Omicron thoughts from dark, Christmas London. TL;DR - Europe+World is facing the Omicron storm and it looks increasingly bad; and, obviously, the virus doesn't care about Christmas. Despite some serious response in the UK, this virus is replicating fast; more action likely needed

Beware: If you keep doing research long enough, your stimuli start to look like you. ;-) New publication with Laura Schmitz, Alan Kingstone, & @AnneBockler: "When eyes beat lips: Speaker gaze affects audiovisual integration in the McGurk illusion" doi.org/10.1007/s00426-021-0…

This tweet has been making the rounds as an example of open science proponents piling on female ECRs (the lead author of the paper). The most noteworthy thing about that discourse is how no noteworthy open science proponent who engaged, engaged the actual issue. 🧵
It's 2021 and social psychologists are still publishing papers like this: Women wearing not much clothing on a night out don't get cold because they believe that they "look hot" (geddit?)🧐🤦‍♂️🙄 @EJWagenmakers @RolfZwaan @lakens

If we could get rid of the “rigor” jerks in academia, universities would be better places, and our science would be better. It costs nothing to give CONSTRUCTIVE criticism instead of tearing down people’s work in condescending and mean-spirited ways. And, its how we get better.

A cool side-effect of our #bropenscience article (with @kirstie_j's) is that we have managed to totally reclaim the hashtag, which was taken away from us from some highly *ehem* motivated trolls originally. I won't link, but you can imagine, I'm sure. thepsychologist.bps.org.uk/v…

I have seen recent tweets on a failure to replicate context dependent memory – the Godden & Baddeley 1975 scuba diving study. Should you drop this from teaching? No. Place dependent memory effects are huge, reliable. Some studies will fail to create the effect. Thread. 1/26

Did you know that it’s actually possible for you to say, “I don’t know enough about this to have an opinion”

So the former president of the United States refuses to speak up in ways that could save thousands of lives, because he wants to make life difficult for his successor. And we treat this as normal politics, not an act of mass manslaughter

Nein, liebe @tagesschau, es ist eben *nicht* überraschend, wenn unter den Angesteckten viele Geimpfte sind - wenn alle geimpft wären, wären es 100%! Bitte korrigieren, ihr spielt den Leugnern in die Hände! tagesschau.de/ausland/amerik…

Call me picky, but I tend to give more weight to research where at least one member of the team knows how to extract the charts from the software without needing to take an actual photograph of the computer screen.
