Have you wanted to make your samples more diverse or your methods more inclusive, but felt unsure how to take steps in that direction?

We've built a resource website (psychgrail.com) to help!

We made an open repository of close relationships measures. Our goal is to catalogue all of the published self-report measures in relationship science.

You can help us expand the database by suggesting measures you tend to use in your research, or by uploading your own measures!

Has anyone used e-gift cards to reward research participants? We’re looking for something that isn’t Amazon and that avoids exorbitant service fees

To help instructors diversify course content, we’re building a database of articles focused on the relationship experiences of marginalized and underrepresented populations. Do you have any to recommend (perhaps one you’ve written yourself or read recently)? Recommend it here: tinyurl.com/IARRrecs

If you're using GPT to collect or analyze data from human subjects, this means that OpenAI might now be retaining your participants' data indefinitely.

Did your participants consent to this? Does your IRB protocol allow OpenAI to retain participant data? If not, then you might be in breach. 4/

There is a NSF FAQ includes questions like: "Can I still work with Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs)" and "There are still gaps in the achievements of certain groups of people. Can we still research those?"
NEW: NSF announces it's "terminating awards that are not aligned with agency priorities...including but not limited to those on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) and misinformation/disinformation." #HigherEd #AcademicSky
