Some of the other folks who were approached at their posters during the Psychonomics meeting in Boston a few weeks ago got back to me after the Thanksgiving holiday. This gives me a chance to present a few more faces of the next generation of Pyschonomes. (If you missed the first installment, it can be […]
Society Matters
The annual meeting of the Psychonomic Society in Boston drew to a close on Sunday. Continuing on from last year, I again surveyed a few posters by junior researchers on Saturday evening. The choice of posters was arbitrary, rather than random, as I didn’t toss any coins or rolled any dice to determine whom to […]
The annual meeting of the Psychonomic Society will go under way in roughly a week. The Society is looking forward to seeing you in Boston. The program has been available for some time, and there is also a mobile app. The Society is urging everyone who is planning to attend to register online rather than onsite. There […]
One of the Psychonomic Society’s journals turned 50 this year: Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, more often affectionately known as AP&P, has been contributing to the scientific literature for half a century. The publisher of the journal, Springer, produced a little “happy-birthday” video: The Editor’s birthday perspective To further explore this milestone, I interviewed the […]
(Editor in Chief: Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications) Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications (CRPI) is a new journal with ambitions. Not only do we want to publish first-rate cognitive research, we want to change the standard way that our discipline thinks about basic and applied research. The standard view is dichotomous: Is your research basic, […]

We will celebrate the new journal, under its acronym CRPI—which is pronounced “Creepee” but in a nice way—for the remainder of this week. Tomorrow we will hear from the founding editor, Jeremy Wolfe, and his thoughts about how the journal will […]

Heather’s area of expertise is animal cognition, and her appointment therefore comes with a twinge of sad news because she is replacing Anna Wilkinson. Anna has been […]
It gives me great pleasure to introduce our new Digital Associate Editor, Dr. Anja Jamrozik, who joined our team a few weeks ago. Welcome, Anja, great to have you on the team. For future reference, Anja’s Psychonomics bio page is here, and she will be publishing her first post as Digital Associate Editor tomorrow. It’s actually her […]
The Granada meeting has drawn to a close after an intense and action-filled three days, and a very brief recap of the highlights seems in order, especially for the social (media) aspects. I think most attendees would agree with me that the meeting was organized to a nearly mind-boggling degree of perfection. With more than […]
As the Psychonomic Society gathers in Granada to for the 2016 International meeting, we were thinking of the people that can’t make it. Fortunately, with modern social media apps like Periscope, we can bring Psychonomics to you. If you are attending the meeting and you have a mobile phone, you can Periscope (or otherwise live stream) […]
