چکیده

In recent years, the psychological and behavioral sciences have increased efforts to strengthen methodological practices and publication standards, with the ultimate goal of enhancing the value and reproducibility of published reports. These issues are especially important in the multidisciplinary field of psychophysiology, which yields rich and complex data sets with a large number of observations. In addition, the technological tools and analysis methods available in the field of psychophysiology are continually evolving, widening the array of techniques and approaches available to researchers. This special issue presents articles detailing rigorous and systematic evaluations of tasks, measures, materials, analysis approaches, and statistical practices in a variety of subdisciplines of psychophysiology. These articles highlight challenges in conducting and interpreting psychophysiological research and provide data-driven, evidence-based recommendations for overcoming those challenges to produce robust, reproducible results in the field of psychophysiology.

The science pendulum: From programmatic to incremental-and back?

The climate in which scientific research is conducted changes over time, and in recent years there has been a shift from a positive view of programmatic science to a more negative evaluation that its contribution to scientific progress is only incremental. In this special issue focusing on the tools of a programmatic approach-replication, reliability and reproducibility-I reflect on changes in ...

Robustness in portfolio optimization based on minimax regret approach

Portfolio optimization is one of the most important issues for effective and economic investment. There is plenty of research in the literature addressing this issue. Most of these pieces of research attempt to make the Markowitz’s primary portfolio selection model more realistic or seek to solve the model for obtaining fairly optimum portfolios. An efficient frontier in the ...

Introducing genetic psychophysiology Eco

Genetic psychophysiology examines interindividual variation in psychophysiological traits using behavioral genetic and molecular genetic techniques. It aims to delineate the pathways that lead from genomic variation to individual differences in cognitive abilities, affect regulation, and mental and physical health. This editorial provides an introduction to the twin design and gene finding stra...

Fabrication of New 3D Phantom for Measuring Geometric Distortion in Magnetic Resonance Imaging System

  Introduction: Geometric distortion is a major shortcoming of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which has an important influence on the accuracy of volumetric measurements, an important parameter in neurology and oncology. Our goal is to design and construct a new three- dimensional phantom using a 3D printer in order to measure geometric distortion and its reproducibility in...

Rigor and replication: Toward improved best practices in human electrophysiology research.

There is an increasing focus on transparency, rigor, and replication in psychological science and science in general (e.g., Ioannidis, 2014; Larson, 2016; Open Science Collaboration, 2015). The emphasis on clear and replicable science comes on the heels of failed replications of studies that have served as the foundation of multiple theories, challenging what is known about many long-standing p...
