Just submitted a review where I ended with my traditional "I hope the authors find my comments useful" where the unwritten implication is "once they stop being annoyed at me that I pointed out the data they collected does not allow the conclusions they wish to draw." So, you know, the usual

This is important. People still do this a lot, and it ends up being a back-door method of inferring an interaction (e.g., “effect was significant in women but not men”)

Loving today's news that the mysterious "fedora man" outside the Louvre heist was actually a 15-year-old museum visitor who dresses like a 1940s French detective all the time, just because. apnews.com/article/louv...

Re-upping since we're just over a week away from the deadline to apply to the TT asst prof position in our clinical area at Vanderbilt! Please consider applying if you're on the job market! RTs appreciated.

Well this is definitely on my list of guitars I'd love to play for a few hours...

My son's band put some music out! Feel free to surprise him by getting plays that he knows aren't his family. . . (I believe the photo is of the car that broke down on their way to the recording studio.) music.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I'm the king of kings I'm not the king of kings but I'm the wreckage of a king but really I'm not actually a king but I am... Shattered visage in the desert by the stone legs wrinkles its lip at you. See my works, ye mighty, and despair!

Can anyone offer help? ⬇️ For prosopagnosia especially? It's tough out there for editors, give @dpmoriarity.bsky.social a hand!

Just liked every post in this thread (because I like every post in this thread)

Come work with us! We're really fun, I swear! In all seriousness, Mason had been a dynamic and wonderful place to work and my CBN colleagues are wonderful 😊

I was raised super duper Christian evangelical Republican conservative, homeschooled pastor’s son, went to Liberty University, didn’t start moving left politically until middle of my PhD program and I can confidently say I NEVER questioned if the nazis we’re, in fact, the bad guys

Anyone have access to or link to sources for secular trends in responses to NEO-PI at facet level over past two decades?

Here's a shot from ABC 11 News from overhead of the crowd in Carrboro... That's people packed into what holds a large farmers market (plus extra space) weekend mornings...and overflowing

Shockingly large crowd at the #NoKings protest in Carrboro NC. This is likely the smallest of the protests nearby today... And it's gigantic. (Picture taken close enough to hear the speaker, majority of crowd behind me.)

Here we go #NoKings

APCS (www.acadpsychclinicalscience.org/)-- the Academy-- is a major training organization in clinical psychological science. We worked with the Academy's leadership team to craft this letter and to encourage programmatic self-study in open science training. Let's get to work!

Exciting news from the Academy of Psychological Clinical Science--a joint effort to enhance open science training in clinical psychology! If you are interested, you can the papers mentioned in the email here: Van Til et al. osf.io/h34jg/files/... OSC paper (Lynam et al.) osf.io/preprints/ps...

Cannot for the life of me find a relevant post on CrossValidated so internet please help. Running a survival analysis where >50% of the sample had the event, but it isn't able to calculate the median or confidence interval. Never seen this one before... Any explanations? #Rstats

Through a series of unfortunate events I am the only one available to help teen daughter shop for a dress for homecoming. Please send thoughts and prayers

hearing rumors about bill b and unc. really want to be the news org that breaks this news so espn has to refer to the blogblog. if you know something tell us please.

Oh, this paper cited me! Funny, I don't remember a 2023 paper I wrote on that topic. . . That's because it's a YouTube video. Well, that's a first!

My daughter's high school just won an award for eating more chicken one evening at a Chick-fil-A than another local high school. [Insert trenchant observation about capitalism here]

If you're into Doctor Who you know why I'm reposting this. If not, think of your favorite show, imagine it's been running off and on for 60 years and there are missing episodes that you haven't seen but they might still exist and this group seems like they can actually find them. Cautious hooray!

Pretty excited about this one. In this paper, we discuss the replication/credibility crisis, the factors that contribute to it, and clinical psychology's slow (really slow) progress in dealing with it. We offer a competency-based fraemwork for improving our training of future scholars. 1/2

If you're using (regular) cross-lagged panel models, this study suggests you also have to accept that causal effects are almost everywhere: Everything causes everything else. If you don't think this is true, you probably shouldn't use that model, because that's the result the model will give you.

We have a new preprint out - continuing to try and move the needle on improving research in clinical psych

New paper led by @drlynam.bsky.social on the need for more training in and engagement with open science practices in clinical psych programs. It has been difficult to make progress due to a variety of barriers, including students working in labs uninterested or hostile to these approaches.

Also if anyone knows Weird Al Yankovic…do your thing. I think he’d be a lot of fun to assist with Quack-O-Gram deliveries.

Q for the #stats crowd, reviewing a paper correlating 2 change scores + interpreting as testing within-person variance that should be robust to time-invariant covariates Methinks this is wrong and that I've read a paper or blog post somewhere, but I can't for the life of me find it...

Enemy combatants on alert in #WarRavagedPortland

If you ever need an example of "data missing not at random can matter a lot actually," here's one. Oh also it's an example of a certain public figure using real numbers to tell what's really a lie about autism... youtu.be/BdpSfrD3Nzs?...

Indeed, UNC-CH Sociology is hiring again! Check it out and please share. :)

Among the many sentences to cross my mind these days that would have seemed baffling to me even a decade ago: "Why, that Jimmy Kimmel monologue was unexpectedly moving."

I’m scheduled for surgery today on my Achilles tendon, followed by 2 weeks of no weight bearing.😵‍💫 So, like any good scientist, I got together 7 colleagues to study consequences of limb disuse. Introducing the HEALING study with @laurelgd.bsky.social @sneuroble.bsky.social @briemreid.bsky.social

Typo I make and correct frequently: Signing off emails besty, but it only seems to happen when the person on the other end is clearly not my bestie nor would want to be

SHIT IS CRAZY, and I have a very obscure ask: Anyone finish undergrad at Brown around 1995 in comparative literature?

Look at academia giving me a little hope

Area dog is not allowed to go out back on his own because the deck has just been repainted. He's looking at us like we took away his favorite toy. Worse news for area dog: we're supposed to wait a week before allowing "heavy traffic" on the deck... And he definitely counts as heavy traffic.

In hobby news, I made some music that I thought sounded mysterious and intriguing but my daughter tells me sounds hectic and agitated. You be the judge! 🙃 The accompanying video also turned out to be more interesting than I expected, because the slow motion reveals a lot... youtu.be/2aw59PAOQq4?...

So what I'm hearing is that Disney doesn't want money from people who support free speech, do I have that right? Looks like I've got some Disney+ and Hulu to cancel...

Huh. I underestimated how much people care about regional BBQ somehow. You learn something new every day on this flutterby app.

I was starting to veer toward recommending a paper be rejected, but the authors provided their data on OSF in good enough shape that I could check their results myself in a few minutes. Reassured, I recommended revision instead. Open data doesn't solve everything but sometimes it helps!

Anyone offering a course on digital mental health these days? Would love a peek at your syllabus 👀

Any of my @bsky.app friends have connections to the Football Players Health Study at Harvard?? If yes, can you please yell in my direction??

We just left some pumpkins in the yard where things grow the best last fall and there's been a development

How many editorial managers can I log into on one browser challenge

No other leads???

That's my boy! #startrek #jellicotrek

Just thinking about how fighting the Nazis in WWII was pretty woke

If the administration releases the data for the causes-of-autism study that is supposed to be reported this month, then it could be useful to have a crowdsourced many analyst/multiverse investigation ready to go that leans-in on pre-commitment to analysis plans. Interested? Alternatives?
