The first paper to contain data collected at my website (technically, at the old website) has just been published. The experiment in question was The Time Course of Visual Short-Term Memory.
This is the first of hopefully two papers using that data. The second paper will look at individual differences and aging. That paper is still in preparation and will hopefully be submitted in August.
I will explain the results and import of the just-published paper in an upcoming post.
Many thanks to everybody who participated.

ScienceBlog.com has no paywalls, no sponsored content, and no agenda beyond getting the science right. Every story here is written to inform, not to impress an advertiser or push a point of view.
Good science journalism takes time — reading the papers, checking the claims, finding researchers who can put findings in context. We do that work because we think it matters.
