The latest episode of Quantitude gives a nice introduction to the idea of equivalence testing: https://quantitudepod.org/s4e15-equivalence/

It is nice this is rapidly becoming a thing we expect all scientists who perform hypothesis tests to know about. Long overdue.

If you want to learn more about equivalence testing, this chapter in my free textbook should get you to a point where you can perform equivalence tests in your own research: https://lakens.github.io/statistical_inferences/equivalencetest.html

#Jamie Walker @ime_walker No amount of AD pathology is “normal” per se, but pretty much everyone develops NFTs in their lifetime. Ever wonder what amount of Alzheimer-type pathology is “normal”-ish at any given age?

I read about computational or mathematical neuroscience and how the brain computates and/or applies algorithms. I am probably not smart enough what that really means. But how does that relate to the following?
"This means that in contrast to the algorithmic procedure described by information theory, […], once an agent formulates a prior intention, it is no longer necessary for that agent to consider every possible behavioral alternative, only a partitioned subset of those alternatives. The semantic space self-organized by (in) a prior intention automatically reduces the number of logically or physically possible behaviors to a more manageable set of now-meaningful options. Given the overall context established by the prior intention, the prior probability of each of the possible behavioral alternatives has suddenly changed."

When you follow someone on Mastodon, you'll see their posts appear in your Home timeline.

Optionally, you can also receive a notification every time they post, in order to make sure you don't miss what they say.

To switch on notification, log in through your server's website, go to the person's profile page and click the 🔔 bell icon. (The official apps don't show this option yet, but some third party apps do.)

This only works for profiles you are following.
