Sounds good, right? Bayesian priors allow cross-loadings and residual covariances of SEM’s to vary a small degree (i.e., replace exact zeros with approximate zeros from informative, small-variance priors) and be evaluated (see Asparouhov, Muthén, & Morin, 2015; Muthén, & Asparouhov 2012). The researcher can thereby discover whether 0 cross-loadings likely exist in...
Hats off to all who helped Brandon and I pull off the 2015 New Doctoral Student Consortium–so thankful for everyone’s efforts and input. Pleased to be handing over the reigns to a great group for next year (John Ross, Zhenyu Liao, and Christian Calderon). Also enjoyed our Academy of Management paper...
A prominent research interest of mine is assessing person-vocation fit and its relationship to work outcomes, such as job performance. Polynomial regression (PR) and response surface methodology (RSM) are ideal methods for measuring person-vocation. Reasons for the superiority of PR-RSM are numerous, but not the point of this post. The interested reader should...

Basic and Applied Social Psychology (BASP) is the first psychology journal to outright ban NHSTP. The link to the short editorial tells the story, but you can certainly find much more on the subject from other sources. Bayesian procedures are neither banned nor required. The idea is that strong descriptive statistics,...
I’m excited to announce (albeit a few days late) the release of Mariners’ full length album “The Quiet.” The Quiet marks the premiere album recorded, mixed, and produced at Sound Foundry Studio! You can listen to selected tracks from the Sound Foundry media page (link above, click “Media”) or hear the...
I’ve wanted to put a plug in for metaBUS for some time now (specifically since attending the related session at AOM 2014). The time has come. What is metaBUS? Quite simply, it’s an interface that will offer access to over 1,000,000 findings (correlational effect sizes) from top HR, Management, and Applied Psychology Journals...
Now for the good stuff–follow-ups with MTURK! After completing your first survey, you have your set of workers to follow-up with for one or more additional waves of data collection. Here’s how to make it work: First, you are going to need CRAN-R (free, open-source software) and the MTurkR package...
Amazon’s MTURK is a promising way to collect data in the social sciences . The sample (as compared to other convenience samples), timeliness, ease, and cost are all strong positive attributes of the service (Landers & Behrend, 2014). However, there is not a convenient method to collect multiple waves of...
