Congratulations to Dr. Sarah Kasran on an absolutely fantastic PhD defence!

A fun and invigorating two days now done after our annual LIPLab retreat! Lots of discussion of the practical tests and applications of learning principles, wine, and bowling!

Jan, Jamie, and Marine spent several days last week in Como participating in the 2nd H2020_LEARNVUL summer school. A productive and fun way to kick off the new academic year!

A new post from @jamiecummins.bsky.social on our Psychology Today blog about the logic behind his postdoctoral research! psychologytoday.com/us/blog/sponta…

A write-up of Sean and Jan's recent paper from Perspectives on Psychological Science is now out on the Association for Psychological Science website! psychologicalscience.org/news/news-rele…

A new paper from Jan and Yannick (and other non-LIPLab-ers) arguing against recent claims from Wood et al. relating to S-R perspectives on habits in humans. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36356057/

Very happy that this paper is going to be published! A big thanks to LIPlab at UGent and especially @jamiecummins.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to participate in this interesting line of research!

A new paper from @jamiecummins.bsky.social, Maura Nevejans, Dylan Colbert, and Jan now in press at the Journal of Contextual Behavioral Science, exploring how different types of relational abilities are related, and how training one influences others. doi.org/10.1016/j.jcbs…

Some thoughts from @jamiecummins.bsky.social and Jan relating to idionomic vs. group-level statistical approaches to individual-level prediction. In short: we believe both approaches have value; which one to pick is constrained by many factors. liplab.be/onewebmedia/Bl…
