The easystats collection of R packages has won a Mission Award from the Society for the Improvement of Psychological Science (SIPS).
easystats brings together a suite of R packages (including bayestestR, parameters, performance and others) designed to make statistical analysis and reporting more transparent, correct and easy to use. The award recognises its impact on how psychologists analyse and communicate their data.
Built and maintained with a large community of contributors, easystats keeps proving that better tools make for better science.
Exploring the neuropsychology of reality and its distortions.
The Reality Bending Lab, led by Dominique Makowski at the University of Sussex in Brighton, UK, conducts
world-leading research on reality perception, illusions, fake news, AI-beliefs, deception and its links with
emotions, cognitive control and the Self. Using recording signals from the body (ECG, EDA…) and the brain
(EEG), we analyse data using advanced modelling (Bayesian statistics, chaos theory, computational models) and
develop
open-source tools to improve
neuropsychological science.

University of Sussex
Brighton
is the sunniest city in the UK and, by some margin, its most cheerfully strange — on the sea, an
hour from London. The University of Sussex sits just above it in the South Downs, and its School of
Psychology is one of the largest and strongest in the country.
It is famous for its research on consciousness and interoception, with scientists like
Anil Seth,
Andy Clark,
Zoltan Dienes
and
Hugo Critchley, its teaching of cutting-edge psychological methods (with stats rockstar
Andy Field), its history of multidisciplinary research (arts and science), and its radical engagement in
open and disruptive science.
