New Replication Project in sport and exercise science shares it results: Out of 25 replication studies performed, 56% yielded significant results, but only 7 (28%) revealed a similar effect size. Several problems related to the quality of are discussed. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

I'm pleased to announce the publication of two important papers in Sports Medicine on the first every large replication project in sport and exercise science. Read the full papers: lnkd.in/gH3NCqK5   lnkd.in/gE7izySW #SportsScience #EvidenceBasedPractice #Research #OpenScience #Replication

Australian friends! I'm going to be visiting Sydney in just over a week. I'll be at UNSW on June 23-25th and Macquarie on June 26-27th. I'd love to catch up with people in person, and also will be giving (at least) two talks at UNSW. The first is science-of-science modeling talk, on June 23:

I finally understood B-splines by working through the Cox-deBoor algorithm step-by-step, discovering they’re just weighted combo of basis functions that make non-linear regression linear. What surprised me is going through Bayesian statistics helped me understand the engine behind the model! #rstats

Given that generative AI is pulling from the ~same subtrate of information and is being highly used by students for assessment. How many years of student submissions of a given assessment will it take before it flags for plagiarism? Has this been examined?

Fitting a generalized mixed model with a gamma distribution log link and random slopes to reaction time data to arrive at precisely the same point estimate as the authors did by simply averaging and conducting a t-test:

New paper out in Scand J Med Sci Sports! 
We tested the reliability of running economy (RE) and other physiological parameters during 90 min of running.

➡️ Running economy is highly reliable in a fatigued state, a 👍🏼 implication for testing durability

its amazing how chatgpt knows everything about subjects I know nothing about, but is wrong like 40% of the time in things im an expert on. not going to think about this any further

Yup. I continue to say that AI is for those who fetishize THE IDEA and dismiss THE WORK. It's for those people who come up to writers and say, "I got a great idea for a book, I'll give it to you, you write it, and we'll split the profits 50/50," as if the idea is the hardest and most important part.

Our new durability paper is out in SJMSS! We tested how endurance performance determinants change after heavy-intensity running (90 and 120 min) in well-trained marathoners. 📌Below details of what we’ve found. 🆓 Open-Access 📄 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/... 🧵1/14

I’m sorry but if your students use AI to write papers and you use AI to grade them zero school is happening. You are running together on a hamster wheel

Our latest review is out now in @jphysiol.bsky.social The repair capacity spectrum of human skeletal muscle injury from sports to surgical trauma settings Great team effort 🙌 @grithhojfeldt.bsky.social, Christian Hoegsbjerg, Arvind von Keudell @ismcopenhagen.bsky.social doi.org/10.1113/JP28...

If you're a grad student or an undergrad interested in research I need to you listen to me very carefully. You cannot learn to write good research papers if you do not read good research papers. Stop asking LLMs to summarize papers for you.

Excited to see this one published. “Integrative Field-Based Health and Performance Research” dives into the challenges and best practices of doing high-quality science in real-world sport. Grateful to work with an amazing group of authors on this! link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Just been reading this great blog post by @dingdingpeng.the100.ci on accessible technical writing. Lots of good advice (some of which I knew, some was new to me) clearly laid out in one handy place! www.the100.ci/2024/12/01/w...

The latest from myself, @crist14n.bsky.social, Grant Abt, and @lakens.bsky.social on exploratory research in sport/exercise science. doi.org/10.1080/0264... We outline the differences between exploratory & confirmatory studies and best practice for conducting/reporting an exploratory study.

Cool paper in AMPPS of @psychscience.bsky.social "One App to Rule Them All: A One-Stop Calculator and Guide for 95 Effect-Size Variants for Two-Group Comparisons of Central Tendency, Variability, Overlap, Dominance, and Distributional Tails” doi.org/10.1177/2515...

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die. Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Recently there’s been plenty of good work in the (re?)emerging field of durability. Our review published in @expphysiol.bsky.social explores key methodological approaches and considerations to be made when profiling durability in research and applied settings.

Our new preprint proposes a new way to quantify training loads based on power output. We describe how a 3-parameter CP model may be used to estimate contributions of each energy system, resulting in a "strain score" which overcomes some limitations of other TL metrics. doi.org/10.48550/arX...

Working through revisions for on the current paper makes it clear that I really really needed to (need to) do a much better job of promoting my last paper pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32131692/

I’ve long used FiveThirtyEight’s interactive “Hack Your Way To Scientific Glory” to illustrate the idea of p-hacking when I teach statistics. But ABC/Disney killed the site earlier this month :( So I made my own with #rstats and Observable and #QuartoPub ! stats.andrewheiss.com/hack-your-way/

If no single piece of the original ship remains in the current ship, is the ship still the Ship of Theseus? And if one percent of all my body's cells get replaced every single day, is it really me who, two months ago, accepted your review request?

Just for reference here: Canada has introduced major reforms to postdoc research fellowships while simultaneously increasing the number of them. #JustSaying

NEW 🧵 Is human intelligence starting to decline? Recent results from major international tests show that the average person’s capacity to process information, use reasoning and solve novel problems has been falling since around the mid 2010s What should we make of this? www.ft.com/content/a801...
