New version of {grateful} on CRAN! New LaTeX support, plus a few bug fixes. Please update! ICYMI {grateful} makes it very easy to cite #Rstatspakillo.github.io/grateful/

The goal of grateful is to make it very easy to cite R and the R packages used in any analyses, so that package authors receive their deserved credit. By calling a single function, grateful will scan the project for R packages used and generate a BibTeX file containing all citations for those packages.

grateful can then generate a new document with citations in the desired output format (Word, PDF, LaTeX, HTML, Markdown). These references can be formatted for a specific journal, so that we can just paste them directly into our manuscript or report.

Alternatively, we can use grateful directly within an Rmarkdown or Quarto document. In this case, a paragraph containing in-text citations of all used R packages will (optionally) be inserted into the Rmarkdown/Quarto document, and these packages will be included in the reference list when rendering.

I'd encourage people to read the full paper. By all indications, @tomcostello.bsky.social did very careful* and innovative work that will have ripple effects on how people run studies beyond work on conspiracy theories. *including addressing most of the specific critiques I've seen posted

Check out our publication in Social Psychological and Personality Science! Can studies about violent video games and aggression be biased by demand characteristics? With two experiments, we show that demand characteristics can lead habitual gamers to respond less aggressively.
