Mobile EEG for remote data collection and remote brain training!
It was so much fun adding X.on EEG device (from Brain Products) to Virgobit smartphone-based Solutions! For adding this device, we used LSL to get real-time data into our smartphone solutions.

It's pretty much this easy:

# version >= 0.0.0.9047
# remotes::install_github("scienceverse/papercheck")
library(papercheck)

p <- module_run(psychsci, "all_p_values")
nonsig <- p$table[p$table$p_value > 0.05, ] |>
expand_text(psychsci)
answer <- llm(text = nonsig$expanded, query = "...")

#Day4 of the #30DayChartChallenge (I'm catching up out of order because I don't have a good idea for circles yet)

I use a papercheck module to visualise the distribution of imprecise p-values in PsychSci papers, like "p < .05" or "p > .25" (surprisingly common).

#Day2 of #30DayChartChallenge (I'm running a little behind)

I show how to get citation data from OpenAlex for a set of PsychSci papers, and create a simple plot to explore the relationship between citation counts and field-weighted citation impact.

I think those of us who use "emotional" stimuli, or who are interested in valence effects on perception or cognition, could really do with understanding emotion history much more. This is a great place to start! #affectsci #neuroskyence #psychsci
I did this for Shepherd a little while ago. If you're looking for entry points in the history of emotions or you're just trying to catch up, you could do worse than this short list: shepherd.com/best-books/w...

If you've just migrated and want to keep track of multiple communities, I can highly recommend deck.blue - it's identical to the old Tweetdeck! You can customise columns with feeds you follow (like
