Episode 116: Can We Do Science Without Ideology? (with Moin Syed)

What this episode covers

Cultural and developmental psychologist and open science advocate Moin Syed joins the show to talk what he thinks people get wrong about ideology, diversity, and open science. We talk about what role, if any, researchers' ideology should play in their science, and what it means when people describe psychological research as "ideological." In the second half of the show, we talk about what people get wrong about preregistration, and why it seems some misconceptions just won't die. We also talk about Moin's attempt to correct some misinformation (it did not go that well), and some local beer history.Special Guest: Moin Syed.Links:You Also Have an Ideology So Useful as a Good Theory?
