Two updates: (1) Release of much expanded curation framework (version 4.4.0) and (2) PhD job announcement related to development of Curate Science (Wolf Vanpaemel).
(1) Latest curation framework new features (for full details, see our pre-print):
- Improved framing of our goal: To establish the internal and external provisional trustworthiness of published findings by quantifying their analytic reproducibility and robustness (internal trustworthiness) and replicability and generalizability (external trustworthiness).
- New workflow and metric for gauging and quantifying the analytic reproducibility of published results.
- Clearer articulation (and new diagram) of general workflow for quantifying replicability and generalizability of published effects.
- Improved display of replication and generalization study characteristics:
- Calibration of framework to reality via curation of Bem's (2011) retroactive recall effect, for original instantiation of effect (Study 8) and a method generalization (Study 9).
- Better examples applying framework to different kinds of replications in psychology (two examples demonstrating method generalizations, one example demonstrating population generalizations).
(2) PhD position job announcement related to development Curate Science:
Wolf Vanpaemel and Francis Tuerlinckx (Quantitative Psychology and Individual Differences, KU Leuven, Belgium) are looking for a PhD candidate. The general goal of the PhD research is to develop and apply novel methodologies to increase the reproducibility of psychological science. One of the PhD projects will contribute to the development of www.curatescience.org, and will be done in collaboration with Etienne LeBel. More information can be found on the jobsite of the KU Leuven (see https://icts.kuleuven.be/apps/jobsite/vacatures/54210787) or by contacting wolf.vanpaemel@kuleuven.be or francis.tuerlinckx@kuleuven.be. The deadline for application is Monday June 26, 2017.
Sincerely,
Curate Science Team
