Eric-Jan Wagenmakers (born May 21, 1972) is a Dutch mathematical psychologist. He is a professor at the Methodology Unit in the Department of Psychology at the

parapsychological concept of extrasensory perception,[3][4] and the tendency for psychologists in general to favor the publication of studies with surprising, eye-catching results.[5] He has also been actively addressing the replication crisis in psychology by helping to conduct a series of studies aimed at reproducing a 1988 study on the supposed effects of smiling on the perceived funniness of cartoons.[6][7]
