New work by @BjoernHommel and me. We fine-tuned a language model to predict correlations between survey items. In our pilot, the out-of-sample accuracy for item correlations was .71, .86 for reliabilities, and .89 for scale correlations. We're planning a preregistered follow-up.

@yashkaf @patio11 @Insect_Song @tracewoodgrains Bonus @tracewoodgrains appearance. To be clear, I think the initial COVID reaction was, as you describe, a pitfall of our (often useful) tendency to be social learners. But the apt metaphor is probably not seeing smoke, nor crying wolf.
