Most researchers are gettng rejected for WRONG reasons
3 top editors revealed their internal review process..
Here's what I learned (Save & Repost) โคต๏ธ

โ 1 line max. No questions. Make it a statement about your main finding.
โ Don't ask "Does X work?" Say "X improves Y by 40%"
๐๐ฏ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐๐ ๐ด๐ฒ๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐ฐ๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐ถ๐น๐
โ Skip the long intro. Get to the point.
โ Include actual numbers, not just "significant improvements"
โ Many readers never go past this. Make it count.
๐ ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฑ๐ = ๐บ๐ฎ๐ธ๐ฒ ๐ผ๐ฟ ๐ฏ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ธ
โ First sentence MUST mention ethics approval
โ No sample size calculation? Instant rejection.
โ If someone can't repeat your study from your description, you failed.

โ Don't tell readers everything you know
โ Four parts only: main findings, context, limitations, clinical use
โ Stop repeating your results here
Biggest mistake I see everywhere:
Type II errors from small sample sizes.
Here's the thing:
These editors review thousands of papers yearly.
They spot patterns instantly!
Follow their blueprint..
..& your acceptance odds jump dramatically.

Ever heard โno significant differenceโ and assumed it meant no difference?
Nope. Thatโs a myth. ๐งช
Let me introduce you to TOST: Two One-Sided Tests.
A thread on how to actually test for equivalence โ not just shrug at p > 0.05 ๐

Then comes the magic of TOST.
You run two one-sided t-tests to check if your result is significantly within the equivalence bounds.
If yes โ ๐
Youโve shown your new method is statistically equivalent โ not just โnot different.โ

Interested in measuring individual differences in altruism/prosocial behavior? @PaigeAmormino has developed a new, brief assessment that (in my view) is much better than self-report measures or existing economic games. It's called The Social Discounting Short-Form (SDT-SF)

A chilling case. The victims had no way of knowing that this UCL PhD student was a predator.
