Reproducibility is a defining feature of science, but the extent to which it characterizes current research unknown. We conducted replications 100 experimental and correlational studies published in three psychology journals using high-powered designs original materials when available. Replication effects were half magnitude effects, representing substantial decline. Ninety-seven percent had statistically significant results. Thirty-six results; 47% effect sizes 95% confidence interval...
Theories of learning styles suggest that individuals think and learn best in different ways. These are not differences ability but rather preferences for processing certain types information or way. If accurate, theories could have important implications instruction because student achievement would be a product the interaction student’s style. There is reason to people view as broadly but, fact, scientific support these lacking. We educators’ time energy better spent on other might aid instruction.
As more firms adopt big data analytics to better understand their customers and differentiate offerings from competitors, it becomes increasingly difficult generate strategic value isolated unfocused ad hoc initiatives. To attain sustainable competitive advantage data, must achieve agility in combining rich across the organization deploy that sense respond a dynamic environment. A key challenge achieving this lies identification, collection, integration of functional silos both within...
Confidence judgments for eyewitness identifications play an integral role in determining guilt during legal proceedings. Past research has shown that confidence positive is strongly associated with accuracy. Using a standard lineup recognition paradigm, we investigated accuracy using signal detection and ROC analyses, along the tendency to choose face both simultaneous sequential lineups. We replicated past findings of reduced rates choosing as compared lineups, but notably found advantage...
Psychometric measures reflecting people’s knowledge, ability, attitudes, and personality traits are critical for many real-world applications, such as e-commerce, health care, cybersecurity. However, traditional methods cannot collect measure rich psychometric dimensions in a timely unobtrusive manner. Consequently, despite their importance, have received limited attention from the natural language processing information retrieval communities. In this article, we propose deep learning...
Phishing is a significant security concern for organizations, threatening employees and members of the public. threats against can lead to severe incidents, whereas those public undermine trust, satisfaction, brand equity. At root problem inability Internet users identify phishing attacks even when using anti-phishing tools. We propose funnel model (PFM), framework predicting user susceptibility websites. PFM incorporates user, threat, tool-related factors predict actions during four key...
Summary Participants encountered same‐race and cross‐race faces at encoding, completed a series of line‐up identification tests provided confidence ratings by using one nine different scales. Confidence was less well calibrated with accuracy when participants selected than face because overconfidence. By contrast, there no effect on confidence–accuracy calibration responded ‘not present’. Whereas very strong predictor for fast identifications face, this much the case slower decisions. Highly...
This research examines the roles of health literacy, numeracy, and trust in doctor on: (1) patient anxiety when consulting a doctor; (2) frequency physician consultations; (3) subjective well‐being (SWB). Our sample consisted 4,040 adults representative United States terms age, income, education, but equally split among White/Caucasian (50%) Black/African American respondents. We found that functional communicative literacy have linear curvilinear relationships with doctor. Health numeracy...
How does financial education lead to improved behavior and higher well-being? An influential Consumer Financial Protection Bureau model introduced in 2015 proposes that the goal of is improve well-being so by increasing knowledge, which improves behavior, well-being. In this study, authors test links model, examining differential roles objective subjective knowledge. They also whether an analogous might capture effects physical health on report a quasi-experiment comparing changes at two...
How do we know eyewitness statements of confidence are interpreted accurately by others? When eyewitnesses provide a verbal expression about lineup identification, such as I'm fairly certain it's him, how well others understand the intended meaning this statement confidence? And, is perception influenced justifications level confidence, when say, I remember his chin? The answers to these questions unknown, there no research on interpret confidence. Three experiments show that an additional...
This article documents a contradiction between objective eyewitness accuracy and perceived accuracy. Objectively, identification (and the confidence-accuracy relationship) is comparably strong when lineup accompanied by justification that refers to either an observable feature about suspect ("I remember his eyes"), unobservable ("He looks like friend of mine") or just statement recognition recognize him"). There is, however, weaker relationship confidence increase in high errors for...
The number of active, online phishing websites continues to grow unabated in recent years. This has created an ever-increasing security risk for both individual and enterprise users terms identity theft, malware, financial loss, etc. Although resources exist tracking, cataloguing, blacklisting these types sites (e.g., PhishTank.com), the ephemeral nature makes in-depth analysis exceptionally difficult. In order better understand how exploit user system weaknesses, we have crafted a platform...
Digital experiments are routinely used to test the value of a treatment relative status quo control setting — for instance, new search relevance algorithm website or results layout mobile app. As digital have become increasingly pervasive in organizations and wide variety research areas, their growth has prompted set challenges experimentation platforms. One challenge is that often focus on average effect (ATE) without explicitly considering differences across major sub-groups heterogeneous...
Advancing age and disease duration both contribute to cortical thinning in Parkinson's (PD), but the pathological interactions between them are poorly described. This study aims distinguish patterns of decline determined by advancing PD. A convenience cohort 177 consecutive PD patients, identified at Vanderbilt University Movement Disorders Clinic as part a clinical evaluation for Deep Brain Stimulation (age: M= 62.0, SD 9.3), completed standardized assessment, along with structural brain...
Jurors are heavily swayed by confident eyewitnesses. Are they also influenced how eyewitnesses justify their level of confidence? Here we document a counter-intuitive effect: when identified suspect from lineup with absolute certainty ('I am completely confident') and justified confidence referring to visible feature the accused remember his nose'), participants judged as less likely be guilty than but offered an unobservable justification would never forget him') or no at all. Moreover,...
When pristine testing conditions are used, an eyewitness's high-confidence identification from a lineup can be reliable predictor of their accuracy (Wixted & Wells, 2017). Further, Grabman, Dobolyi, Berelovich, and Dodson (2019) found that identifications more predictive for individuals with stronger than weaker face recognition ability. We extend this research by investigating why strong recognizers make informative confidence judgments fewer errors through the framework two different...
Psychometric measures of ability, attitudes, perceptions, and beliefs are crucial for understanding user behavior in various contexts including health, security, e-commerce, finance. Traditionally, psychometric dimensions have been measured collected using survey-based methods. Inferring such constructs from user-generated text could allow timely, unobtrusive collection analysis. In this paper we describe our efforts to construct a corpus natural language processing (NLP) related important...
Is confidence most diagnostic of accuracy when expressed in numbers or words? This question bears immense importance many real-world contexts especially within the confines eyewitness identification. In an identification task, we compared value numeric across rating scales that varied grain size (3-point vs. 6-point 21-point 101-point scales). We also to verbal statements using several machine-learning algorithms. found fine-grain ratings are more than coarse-grain ratings, which suggests...
