To Appear/Manuscripts (may differ from final/current versions):
A previous version of the "Possibility-Seeking Experiments" paper appeared as Experiments Beyond Statistics: How Generative Linguistics Can Beat the Replication Crisis. This paper is largely the same as the above one, just with a slightly different focus. As it is cited in some places, I have left it viewable here: [PDF]
