See my scholarly publications at Alex O. Holcombe. I was trained as a human visual perception researcher and spend some of my time investigating illusions of position and motion (e.g., [1]) and also the bottleneck that limits cognitive processing of visual signals (e.g. [2]).

I have been involved in advancing open access publishing and open science since about 2006 when I joined the founding Advisory Board of the academic journal PLOS One and since then have been involved in many more initiatives, including co-founding the Registered Replication Report article format (originally at Perspectives on Psychological Science), co-founding the journal Advances in Methods and Practices in Psychological Science, and joining the diamond open access journals Meta-psychology and WikiJournal of Science. I also do metascience research oriented toward improving the quality of research and advancing open science in behavioral and social sciences.

Many years ago, I was holcombea but I lost access to that account and was told there was no way to retrieve it.
