🤔 Is there one best way to lead, or have we overcomplicated leadership?
Our new study in the @JMS_Journal shows that most leadership styles overlap. It’s time to focus on universal behaviours, not trends.

Good! A 'method effect' seemingly debunked.
I do wonder about other common method biases and how large they truly are, compared to inflated correlations in surveys caused by the jangle fallacy.
Read about another side to the "item proximity effect" story, or when proximity does not impact correlations among items. #HotOffThePress at econtent.hogrefe.com/doi/10.…

As we face new COVID concerns, fascinating #FridayFeature showing those who are autonomously motivated are more inclined to follow regulations.

We need a radical overhaul of the system for public academic grant funding. My rant in today's Australian: "Months of work followed by months of waiting: it is a drawn-out, one-shot, black-box process". I propose a solution: a system that is "minimalist, consultative, and fast"

Meta-analysis found that quizzes facilitate learning and it doesn't matter whether the quizzes are worth marks (g = .44, k = 160) or not (g = .48, k = 135). psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-…
An essay on the potential of crowdsourced meta-analysis in psychological science.
Many of us make our data publicly available, so why not centralize this and create a perpetually updating and open meta-analysis of everything we know?

This is brilliant:
Thanks for all your responses. I used your feedback to makes some updates.
While it feels like the list could go on forever, this version at least gives an immediate sense what a multi-faceted job this is!
