Seen a lot of posts lately about work/life balance + evils of academia. I’m not denying their existence for many (+ some disproportionately), but I also want prospective to know this: My work is to play w ideas + talk to smart people. That’s a great life!

FWIW my parent-prof view is that—other than need to be mobile early on—it would be difficult to find a profession that is more compatible w/ parenthood. When I hear academics complain about it, I wonder: “relative to what?” My wife has a real job, & I’m def the flexible one.

Totally. I’ve just personally arrived at a place where I’m highly skeptical of virtually all assumptions re: “measurement”. In the end, we’re just looking at shadows of entities on the wall of the cave.

I can’t imagine circumstances under which I would infer that UCLA students more fair than some other group based on Econ game data—even if the criterion decision exhibited all forms of measurement invariance from an IRT standpoint.

Fine, but this places the researcher in a position where they can only study latent parameters that themselves manifest the same way across groups—a dubious assumption if the mind is composed on mechanisms embodying contingency.

“Some items are better than others for making direct comparisons... at the latent level”. You’re saying the diagnosis of this isn’t based at all on x-group item variance or covariance? In any case, direct comparisons of what? Delta? I also have probs w/ IRT voodoo assumptions.

Very interesting. I wouldn’t worry about your entire research area. At one point, we considered approaching Pruitt re: testing a model of ours in spiders. Good thing we didn’t!

Fair point—that’s almost certainly part of the truth. & causality could run both ways. Again, everyone rightly values the trekking & the sample diversity it affords. The difference in opinion is re: whether claims can be made based on x-cultural data that didn’t require a trek.

Saving the notebook is important, but insufficient. You are needed in the flesh. Preferably on a bear skin rug.

👇 A great set of thoughts on the new requirement of “measurement invariance” in x-cultural research I would go further: if u expect the same pattern of variance or covariance across populations, u haven’t thought about how the mind works Down with our psychometric overlords

More evidence that contact theory is too simplistic (its more about coalitional opportunity!):

There appears to be some evidence to support the preventative effects of garlic—but it comes primarily from a single randomized clinical trial. See

Totally. I think everyone values trekking. Still, it’s interesting how self-interest seems to drive opinions re: whether one can test anything human nature w/o trekking. (I don’t exempt myself) We can all agree that the drowning of would have basically ended science

Observation re: the comments on ’s thread questioning falsifiability of WEIRD: People who trek to remote places to get data dislike the thread’s gist People who don’t trek are generally supportive or supportive A cynic might attribute these stances to self-interest 🤷‍♂️

More Neanderthal ancestry in African pops than we thought: 1. migrations from ancient Europeans back into Africa introduced Neanderthal ancestry into African pops. 2. some of the detected Neanderthal ancestry in Africans due to human DNA introduced into Neanderthal genome

To understate things significantly, I’m for it 😂 As far as I’m concerned, we are all Africans who share a universal basic design—which includes our obligate dependence on socially transmitted information (I.e. culture).

Is the WEIRD acronym falsifiable? Good question! [Thread]

I agree 100%. (1) entirely unclear what “projection” is or why it’s an explanation of anything; (2) sex-differentiated (& within-sex) variation in mating strategies always seen as the key driver of the SOPB Authors acknowledge this, but frame as if they falsified something 🤷‍♂️
