Great episode of one of the best podcasts, #IfBooksCouldKill, covering aspects of psychology like first impressions, thin slicing, social priming, bias, Bargh & Bem, as well as a sprinkling of reproducibility. Fun to hear an external sceptical take on these studies. open.spotify.com/episode/2hcN...

Great initiative by Wiley! The publisher has started marking retracted papers in reference lists. When you click on the retraction notice, you can also see the date and reason for the retraction. All publishers should adopt this practice. But also screen references during submission.
