A reminder that the deadline for submitting paper and poster proposals for the 2025 Rebecca Morton Experiments conference at NYU is next week (Dec 10!) Tara Slough Anna Wilke Identities & Ideologies Project at NYU

The fact that this point still needs to be made today makes me sad. Concepts are difference from empirical measures. I blame the "behavioral revolution." One thing CP training is good at.

How do you know when a mechanism is externally valid? In“Sign-Congruence, External Validity, and Replication," Tara Slough and Scott Tyson develop a framework for accumulating evidence across multiple studies and develop theoretical foundations for replication.

To characterize the relationship between replication and external validity, they show that sign-congruent external validity and harmonization of studies are required to guarantee target-congruence between studies. You can read the paper here: cambridge.org/core/journals/…

Deadlines extended! Applications for both the EITM Summer Institute and EITM scholarships for the ICPSR Summer Program in Quantitative Methods now due April 25. Details here: eitminstitute.org/programs/

Dear PhD students: I cannot recommend the EITM Summer Institute enough. It's an outstanding opportunity. It's also free. Plus Ann Arbor is lovely in the summer. The application deadline is April 25. More information at the link below.

After many years of working on it, it feels great to finally see my job market paper out in AJPS!

Got promoted to full professor. I asked my colleague what that meant, and he said "you get to go to the full professor meetings." I asked what they did at the meetings, and he said "we talk about who to promote to full professor."

New political science grad students, a piece of unsolicited advice: Take the full formal theory sequence; if it's not offered, go to the econ department (that's what I did). Formal logic is also a great option! Why? You never know what will happen during grad school. 1/8
