New post: Does the average psychology paper improve the world?

I estimate that the average JPSP paper costs at least $158,000, which could save 45 lives if donated to the most effective charities. Thinking about opportunity costs of research can help us do more good.

"I think it’s strange that we don’t think about research in this way. For one, many psychologists are explicitly trying to improve the world... This is extra strange given that we intuitively weigh opportunity costs in all other areas of our lives."

Is the whole system collapsing under AI written submissions (and reviews?) - but if so why 5 reviews?

Only had 5(+) reviewers twice in my career - flagship papers at JPSP and now BBS.

Most of my papers get read by a few people (thanks, mom and students! 😆). Could a 3-minute video reach more?

I used AI to turn our 2016 JPSP paper, CAPTION-ing the Situation, into an explainer: 10,325 everyday adjectives → 7 dimensions of situations.

Would a video get you to read the paper?
The 7 Dimensions of Psychological Situations: The CAPTION Model Explained

with descriptive aims, we wanted to explore the state of art when it comes to publishing qual psychology in high-impact general venues: psych science, JPSP, journal of applied psych, american psychologist, and NHB throughout years 2023-25
August 18, 2026 at 1:57 PM
the results are quite clear: the journals welcome qualitative research in theory, yet publish near zero in practice-- here american psychologist is clearly an exception with a prevalence of 6.1%, for other journals it's 0.5% (btw loved reading AP & learning how wide its epistemic range is)
