Great to hear that ⁦Inside Story⁩ will relaunch with fresh content on 5th Sep 2022; an important contribution to Australian #journalism insidestory.org.au

a master class from Jason Collins on how to read research literature thoughtfully and@critically. (spoiler: it’s hard!)

By my count there are now 9 bias studies that show direct evidence of massive, systemic bias in the marketing literature. I've just updated the list: openmkt.org/research/detec…

. Inside Story is coming back, thank goodness. And yes, I will be writing for it on media and other stuff.

Inside Story is soon to be back, consider supporting ⬇️ My favourite Aust publication, a place where considered perspectives are given space… (I am kindly commissioned to write for it too but that’s not why it’s my favourite)

Announcement and invitation! A new project that aims to improve the quality of research in applied microeconomics by examining researcher choices. I am hoping to recruit up to *200 researchers* of all kinds (with pay) and hope you will join me! (Thread) nickch-k.github.io/ManyEconomists/

another powerful reminder that meta-analyses aren’t much good if they don’t account for publication bias. this eg from ecology & evolutionary biology

We are excited to announce the ten books that have made it to the #auspolbookaward longlist! The longlist are those books our judges believe provide the most compelling contribution to understanding Australian political events and debates, congratulations to our nominees!

We teamed up with ato.gov.au to inform the design of the YourSuper Comparison Tool conducting a survey & two survey experiments with over 2000 respondents. Read our final report - behaviouraleconomics.pmc.gov.au/projects/yours… #yoursuper #superannuation

Here's a piece I've done for Inside Story about what Alex Jones did to the parents of the Sandy Hook shootings and how, after nearly a decade, they have finally held him to account. Bearing the unbearable, on Inside Story inside.org.au/bearing-the-un…

If you teach students to work with data, you're doing them a great disservice if you just teach them how to run models/analyses and not how to clean and manipulate data. If you haven't tested them directly on this, you'll be surprised how unintuitive this is to new users!

I'm hiring a Chief of Staff to work with me and the leadership team @B_I_Tweets. bi.team/vacancies/chie… I'm obviously biased, but I think it will be a rewarding, stretching and really fun job. Quick thread on the day to day below 1/n

Good morning! An announcement about Registered Reports 🧵 #RegisteredReports RegisteredReports

We partnered with the NMHC on a national survey to help develop a Mental Health Stigma Reduction Strategy. We estimate over 4 million Australians experienced mental health-related stigma and discrimination in the prior year. Read about our findings here: behaviouraleconomics.pmc.gov.au/projects/natio…
