On a maintenant l'habitude avec @MarianneleMag mais, "SIDA mental", ça doit quand même mériter une sorte de palme de l'indécence : pathologisation de l'opposant, psychophobie, relent homophobe, tout ça en deux mots, chapeau l'artiste.
C'est très charitable de prendre le temps de debunker ce qui n'est qu'une théorie raciste grossière (en même temps venant de Stern...)

Can the rubber hand illusion change how much pain we feel? We combined evidence from 22 experiments and found no meaningful effect in healthy participants, challenging the idea that body-ownership illusions reduce pain. Study led by @coppi_sara.

Once again a great time at #IMRF2026 in Genova - the setting was exceptional, and the talks and posters were very interesting. What a privilege. Grazie genovese for a superb conference!
ALT Yours truly at IMRF2026
L'idéal imho ce serait de les poster sur une chaine secondaire avec un montage des meilleurs moments sur la chaine principale pour donner envie de voir l'interview complète (mais c'est beaucoup de boulot)

Excellent news! Nature is expanding Registered Reports to all the fields in which they publish! A great result by all those proposing this strong solution to publication bias and selective reporting (and getting expert feedback before data collection)! nature.com/articles/d41586-0…
Art critique pigeons, phones changing how we see white, VR illusions and a hint of multisensory integration. Great time at #EPSNewcastle 2026! @ExpPsychSoc

Can LLMs do science, how would we know, and how would they know? A lab note about David Louapre’s ( @dlouapre ) Eleusis benchmark for scientific reasoning, from a cognitive psychologist's perspective. thomaschazelle.fr/en/how-psy…

GPT 5.2 drains your time being overcautious.
Grok 4 wastes resources being reckless.
This is what we found benchmarking 16 AI models on Eleusis: a game where you form hypotheses, test them, and refine theories, just like real science 🧪♠️

New lab note: Comparing multisensory integration across different sensory cues is tricky because the size of the multisensory benefits depends on the variance of individual cues. How can cue normalisation solve this problem? thomaschazelle.fr/en/cue-nor…
un sondage comparant "musulmans" et "autres", comme si catégoriser ensemble évangélistes, néopaïens et bouddhistes avait du sens. Pas surprenant : les pseudosciences accompagnent les préjugés de leur époque. Avec l'Ifop, la sondologie ne fait pas exception. Poubelle !
L'Ifop (le sérieux de la voyance, le racisme en plus) poursuit maintenant en justice quiconque ose remettre en question ses enquêtes pleines de préjugés. Peut-on encore critiquer leurs dérives ? Et en l'occurrence, (1/2)

Just read Paul Bloom's criticism of (some of) developmental psychology and wanted to share my thoughts. Tldr: We do need more data to find out, in the future, whether we were trying to fit cylinders (data points) in square holes (bad theories) all along thomaschazelle.fr/en/data-ma…

What happens to the brain’s body map when a body-part is removed?
Scanning patients before and up to 5 yrs after undergoing an arm amputation, we discovered the brain’s body map is strikingly preserved despite amputation

What a lovely 3 days in Utrecht for #BRNet2025. Thanks everyone for the thought-provoking talks and chats. I think the computational modelling theme for this year was spot-on, congrats to the organisers @bodyrepnetwork ! Looking forward to seeing some of you again at #IMRF !

1st day at #BRNet2025 - I thought my nerdiness was sated with the computational modelling workshop, until Pieter Medendorp mentioned the El Greco fallacy 🥹
Can #BRNet2025 answer the cartographer / tuner question? If you're in Utrecht in the next few days and even if you're not coming, feel free to share and, most of all, comment!
