      Depressing. Despite repeated concerns about limited samples in evolutionary behavioural sci, @tvpollet & Tamsin Saxton find articles in evo journals STILL hugely biased towards WEIRD samples (2015). Do journals need to use max quotas for WEIRD articles?https://osf.io/7h24p/

      I really hope that new formats like registered reports and initiatives like @PsySciAcc will see more people tackle this problem. Meetings like the recent one in Natal (organised by @victorshiramizu and funded by @HumBehEvoSoc) can also play a big role.

      Meetings like @EHBEA1 can help out at least with the WEEIRD problem (since a high proportion of WEIRD samples are Western English-speaking Educated Industrialised & Democratic...) ;) Would also like to see some discussion of this among the EHB editorial board

      I’d totally be up for that. Even just proposing a special issue on non-WEIRD samples would be a big step in the right direction. And I do think RR could make a huge difference. Much easier to move beyond convenience samples with an in principal acceptance in hand.

      Definitely need to encourage non-WEIRD samples, though non-WEIRD issue may send message that WEIRD samples are norm in EHB so non-WEIRD need special treatment. Need culture shift so non-WEIRD becomes norm; may need creative ways to encourage that eg max # WEIRD samples per issue

      Encouraging non-WEIRD samples is great start. And a SI would be a great way to model the importance of non-WEIRD to other areas of Psych. EP is ‘WEIRD’ but less so that soc/devo.

      Also important not to bias against or devalue research with WEIRD samples. Not everyone has collabs, funding, or access to non-WEIRD samples, but that shouldn’t devalue the merit of their hypotheses and methods, for example.

          Yes, WEIRD samples shouldn't be dismissed out of hand; useful under some circumstances (exploratory research, experiments, collecting data not available elsewhere) but results need to be carefully interpreted, not over-generalised & robustness tested (i.e. biases recognised)

          I think this is an interesting idea to address those issueshttp://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/1745691617708630 …

          Thinking about this more today, I wonder if more work with direct cross-cultural comparisons is what we need (as opposed to work testing samples from a single pop)?

          I’ve not seen much discussion of it, but the most worrying thing @tvpollet’s work highlights isn’t the bias towards WEIRD samples, but the paucity of cross-cultural work, imo.

          cross-cultural work is absolutely the way to go but current incentives don't favour it (with some exceptions-ERC were happy to fund my cross-cultural grant. But then UK academics will lose access to such an open-minded funder very shortly...)
