SCiP in the Mile High City🏞️

This year we got to hold a symposium on Internet-based methods organized by Ulf-Dietrich Reips at the meeting of the Society for Computation in Psychology (SCiP) in Denver, Colorado. Friends and colleagues joined us in our session to share their insights on data collection, study creation and general methodology.🛠️

Erin Buchanan (top left), Chris Wolfe (top right), Anni Tave Overlander (middle left), Yury Shevchenko (bottom left) and Ulf (foreground) were speakers at the symposium. Prof. emeritus Gary McClelland performed as a brilliant and witty discussant of all talks at the end to tie everything together. We all went to a joint lunch to discuss our findings, current and future projects, and how to pronounce “Likert”.

We are happy and grateful to have been able to attend the satellite conferences SCiP and SJDM (Society for Judgment and Decision Making) as well as the larger Meeting of the Psychonomic Society. #psynom25
We got to attend many thought-provoking talks and met inspiring researchers. ✨

Apart from the conferences, we had to do some extra-curriculars as well, of course. Yury and Anni got to see a wrestling show at the Ball Arena, Ulf went hiking in the Rockies, and the whole team was invited by Gary and his wife Lou to a lovely soirée they organized for researcher friends in a downtown Denver loft. 🍷

The annual conferences typically take place in the week leading up to Thanksgiving, so we’d like to take this opportunity to give thanks to everyone who is involved in our research and extra-curriculars. We had a great time at SCiP, Psychonomics and SJDM and very much look forward to seeing known and new faces at next years’ events! 🍾⛵
