I think the reason you think we think you are demanding all work to be confirmatory is because some of you have authored pubs on exactly that. I don't think you all want confirmatory research, but I realise what you and others are doing...

At the end of the day, if they want to leave many/all cog modellers "behind" and we can just be let alone to do modelling work that is OK with me. I have been doing modelling replications ALL my scientific career. I know what state my (sub*)field is in. *Kleene star

It seems to me that some people have taken control of a movement that in principle could have been good for science, twisting it to their liking without giving to it much thought (best case scenario) and/or with an specific power agenda. >>

The only way I can think of to counteract their lobbying is to build another position of strength, which will most probably lead to a "civil war". Alternatively, we can try to ignore it and hope that eventually ppl understand that each branch or research has its own idiosyncrasy.

Honestly? No idea.

Find all these words "camps" (not you others) "civil war" etc., off-putting. I think the rhetoric is nasty on this level too, but I do not blame people for using war-related terminology. I just think it's not actually useful and might even make it less likely to reach a solution.

I'm sorry for being gone through this, but you did a better job of handling that than I would have. I've debated with Ben before and I absolutely get the sense that he would prefer to see all work as pre-registration even though I can't quote the tweet. And I predicted a muting.

I think it's fair to say that when someone says e.g. "Pre-reg doesn't prevent exploration" they are essentially supporting universal pre-reg (otherwise why say it?). And yet there is no specific tweet one can point to.
-
OK, I'll out myself. I've meant that when I've said that. I'm a grad student in social psych so I think pre reg is the bees knees. Can someone ELI5 why/when pre reg is not useful, when it does allow for exploratory research?
