Launching our *What Works Prevention* Special Interest Group today! Having worked in prevention research for the past decade, I think it is important we connect more in this field to gain better insights into what works for young people More info: mentalhealthresearch.org.uk/what-works-p...

Drawing on a study of 223,587 science news stories, Hao Peng, @innovation.bsky.social , and @davidjurgens.bsky.social find that researchers with non-Anglo names are more likely to not be directly named in news stories and have their names replaced with those of their institutions. #AcademicSky

HNY! 🎉🎉 Only a few weeks left to apply to this Wellcome Trust-funded project as a PostDoc with me, @alexandrapike.bsky.social, @lei-zhang.bsky.social, and Catia Oliveira! Lots of budget in the post to develop your skills, and career, and to be creative - jobs.royalholloway.ac.uk/1223-527

Our manuscript, "An individual participant data meta-analysis of psychological interventions for preventing depression relapse", was published today in @NatMentHealth www.nature.com/articles/s44...

Currently looking at power calculations for EMA A-B-A study designs... anyone any pointers?

Top tip: the DAG is there to help you understand that you *can't* draw any causal inferences in that situation.

= Position alert = Our psychology department at University of Hong Kong is recruiting a department head (/full professor). Lots of potential for you to come in & drive change. (would be especially nice if this person would support open-science) Details: jobs.hku.hk/cw/en/job/52...

⭐️NEW paper “Clinical prediction models and the multiverse of madness” For any model created, a multiverse of other potential models exists & an individual’s prediction may vary greatly across this multiverse Avengers endgame: examine this instability🙏 bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10....

Great piece by @scientificdiscovery.dev "Longevity isn’t one obscure problem that needs to be ‘cracked’ in order for us to live longer. We’ve been able to reduce mortality and delay death by continuously working on a wide range of problems."

I have been a bit bored over Christmas, so I started working on a little blog post about good academic writing for my group. I was wondering, what are key things you have learned about academic writing that you wish you would have known earlier?  🧪 #AcademicSky

An explanation of the difference between within-subject variance and between-subject variance for repeated measures data. #stats

How do we integrate prior beliefs with new experiences to guide metacognitive self-knowledge? psyarxiv.com/knsb4/ A brief 🧵 on our recent preprint👇, in which we found that this capacity for integrating different sources of uncertainty is highly domain specific. #psychscisky 🧠🤖 🧠🟦

If you like more guidance through the steps of a sample size justification for your next study, my Sample Size Justification paper comes with a Shiny app: shiny.ieis.tue.nl/sample_size_... Complete the steps, and you can download the justification as a PDF to include in a preregistration.

The irony that x is down now is not being missed by me...

👇 this is critical.

#HiSciSky 👋🏻 I’m an Editor with the Nature Reviews department, handling Review articles and Research Briefings for life sciences and clinical journals. I’m particularly excited about (developmental) cell biology. Based in Berlin, previously Cambridge, UK. Kitten mom 😻

Tagging #HiSciSky too! Hi everyone,

My first ever post on here! Really excited to be on a different platform, look forward to connect with colleagues I finished my PhD in 2021, and am currently a Prudence Trust Research Fellow. My research is on improving interventions for the prevention of depression and anxiety in youth.
