The arithmetic mean is a communist idea: It takes the total summation and divides it equally amongst all individuals.
Sarcasm but also true.
This week on Opinion Science, I shared a preview of another podcast I think you'd enjoy: Mind Games.
It traces the wild story behind a so-called "persuasion technology" built on hypnosis that's been at the center of all kinds of questionable movements.

Screenshot from a Death Cab for Cutie video where the correct lyrics of "If Heaven and Hell decide that they both are satisfied," have been incorrectly captioned as "If Evan and Al decide that they both are satisfied."
Correct Death Cab lyrics finally dropped.
Happy New Year.

Out now in Scientific Reports! Despite high correlations, ChatGPT models failed to replicate human moral judgments. We propose tests beyond correlation to compare LLM data and human data.

This appears to be the greatest failure in all of journalism.
Diabolical.
Image of Schrodinger's cat. One cat says, "Your effect sizes are too small to be meaningful." The other cat says, "Your study likely suffers from Type II errors and wasn't powered enough to detect small effects."
This is a true story. Schrodinger's peer review.
Me when reviewers tell me my findings were obvious and didn't need to be empirically tested.

A Coldplay-affair meme for the social psychologists
A four-panel "clown makeup" meme humorously depicting the stages of overestimating time saved by scripting in R. Panel 1: A man begins applying clown makeup. Caption: "I'm going to have to copy the results from the same analysis conducted on 4 datasets." Panel 2: He applies more makeup. Caption: "I'll write an R script." Panel 3: He puts on a rainbow wig. Caption: "It'll output the results for me in a clear and ready to edit format." Panel 4: Fully dressed as a clown. Caption: "I'm going to save so much time as compared to copying and pasting."
Maybe I'm just terrible at R but I don't think it has ever saved me time.
From Joe Francemone and me: Moral information about one character doesnβt just shape how we see themβit reshapes how we see others around them. In social networks, moral judgments spread through contrast or assimilation depending on how the network is structured.
