Virtual Symposium: Data Management for Psychological Science
Good data management is the backbone of psychological science. But rarely are scientists trained in best practices. How do we ensure participants’ data is private and secure? What should be included in a codebook? What variable naming approaches make analyzing data easier?
​​
We invite you to “Data Management for Psychological Science” – a virtual symposium with panel discussion scheduled for Tuesday, March 25, 2025 from 11 AM to 12:30 PM Eastern Time.
​
Our international lineup of speakers includes:
-
Matthew Johnson, University of Alberta, "Metadata are an important part of good secondary data"
-
John Sakaluk, Western University, "Naming [digital] things"
-
Rob Gommans, Radboud University, "Demonstrating compliance: How proper data management ensures privacy and security"
​
Talks will be followed by an interactive Q&A and panel discussion. We welcome researchers at any career stage to join us – from graduate students and postdocs to seasoned PIs embarking on challenging new data projects, from lab managers to early career researchers setting up their first data management systems in the lab. View the full event agenda here.

TLC Global Gratitude Summit—Call for Speakers May 2025
Do you have new research findings on gratitude you'd like to share with a vibrant and collaborative community?
​
We invite you to submit your research for presentation at The Love Consortium's 2025 Global Gratitude Summit! It will take place virtually on Wednesday, May 14, 2025.
​
We are currently accepting submissions for three scientific presentation formats: virtual posters, flash talks (5 minutes), and full talks (15-20 minutes). Although not required, in the case of comparable ratings, priority will be given to talks using data described on the Global Gratitude Dataverse (GGDv). Please click here to learn more about posting your dataset desciption to the GGDv.
​​
This year, we're introducing a new opportunity to facilitate and inspire collaborations: We are also accepting submissions for a dataset description session. If you have a data citation for a dataset you have described on the GGDv, you can submit for a 5-minute presentation to introduce your dataset to potential collaborators. What untapped potential does your dataset hold?
​​​
Note: the precise timing and format of the event will depend on final talk selections. To include as many of our global colleagues as possible, the event may include multiple sessions across the day.
​
Submissions are currently being reviewed and decisions will be announced by February 28.
Registration for the event will open in the following weeks.​​​

WEBINARS
Join us for an upcoming informational webinar! During our time together, we will give an overview of The Love Consortium Dataverse, explain the process to post a dataset description, and answer any questions you may have. Each webinar takes about 30 minutes, but we reserve the full hour for additional conversation, should the Q&A portion run over.
