I will be reviewing applications for @unm.edu's Clinical Psychology as well as Diversity and Health Data Science Across the Lifespan PhD programs. Both deadlines are December 1! psych.unm.edu/graduate/ind...

My 8th grader had a lab report to finish this weekend. I plotted his data and estimated a linear regression model. The model explained 98.8% of the variance! I was so jealous... the lab applied a constant heat source to an initial mixture of ice water, but still! 98.8%!!

If they've got enough money for these donations, they've got enough money to pay a higher tax rate.

Hi bluesky friends! I plan to submit a symposium with @craiganthonyrs.bsky.social for APS 2026 on contextual psychopathology research from ECRs (students welcome!) Content area and methods are wide open. If you are interested or know someone who may be, message me and we'll chat further. 1/2

Take a look at the logo! Then the thread!

If AI is so smart, why can't the AI bots sending me spam realize that I'm not going to respond and stop sending more emails?

And very concerning language about clinical psych students. Sounds like they’re not eligible, even if the project goals aren’t focusing on clinical outcomes…

The #NSFGRFP solicitation is out. Deadlines are pushed to Nov. 10, 12, 13, 14. However, 2ND-YEAR GRADUATE STUDENTS ARE NO LONGER ELIGIBLE. This is unfair to those who delayed applying or who withdrew last year due to missing letters (please contact me if this is you). www.nsf.gov/funding/oppo...

Please share with anyone who cares about NSF support for graduate students and take 30 seconds to sign and leave a comment. The deadline for the 2025 Graduate Research Fellowship Program is about one month away and literally no one can apply. #NSFGRFP jasonjwilliamsny.github.io/grfp2025/

Does anyone know of a measure assessing perceptions of therapy/treatment among youth? Thx!

Delighted to share that we are currently hiring for a tenure-track position (open rank) in Clinical Psychology in the Department of Psychology at McGill University. Come join a great department! Link to apply: mcgill.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/mcgill....

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy and Education Secretary Linda McMahon are against schools giving kids standardized questionnaires about their mental well-being. But experts say they are wrong.

I'm curious about looking at non-linear relations between symptoms and impairment... Anyone have a good lead on recommendations for regression discontinuity or spline regression? There seem to be a *lot* of methods, but they're not commonly used in my sphere of psychology... Thanks!

@qmmmmliu.bsky.social and I just gave a presentation for the UChicago internship program on writing faculty job statements. We talked through what makes them compelling (and what to avoid). Slides are here if interested 👉 osf.io/3skx4/?view_... Thanks to Dr. Shona Vas inviting us!!

Year 2 of Temple's Demystifying Graduate Applications Event!

There comes a time in every tyrannical regime where people must decide how much shit they want in their brownies. We are at this crossroads now and I'd like to show you how this looks in action, why science and democracy are always besties, and why the answer is "no shit in my brownies, thx!" 🧵

Kristi Noem isn't just a walking disaster — she's causing them too. Stripping billions from FEMA and wiping out federal emergency response will hurt and kill Americans. And punishing employees for speaking out about it is illegal.

APS Fellow Tim Wilson is working on a project called "What We'll Never Know," which involves making brief videos of researchers who have lost their #funding. Watch the videos here and spread the word: @never-know.bsky.social #SciComm #ScienceFunding

Some news on GRFP…

Thousands who hope to apply this year to NSF GRFP are working on applications, but with no guidance from a solicitation. NSF's .org website no longer exists. Will the program continue? NSF needs to hear from you! PLEASE email concerns to [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected] #grfp

Applying for graduate studies in psychology and neuroscience can be challenging and confusing. Frequently, applicants have some support from mentors at their home institutions, but sometimes applicants are looking for additional reassurance, feedback, or perspectives on the processes.

At least 2 of us are very confused!

Any folks have guesses about when/if the new NSF GRFP proposal instructions/portal will be opened this year? Trying how to gauge how to help navigate students with proposals...

Postdocs applying for K99s, particularly if it's your last opportunity: DO NOT forget to include a foreign justification document if you have any sort of foreign collaboration. Your application will be withdrawn if you don't have that.

Good coverage! Let’s continue to work to get the word out about the damage to science. whyy.org/articles/fed...

I've gotten stuck in complaining about this to lovely people... any constructive thoughts that folks have put on paper that could be a collective voice to submit? One option of no cap on money spent to be in compliance; or permit other non-paywalled sharing of accepted manuscripts; any others?

📣 New preprint from the SCIMaP team! Across three studies, we show that communicating the economic impact of NIH funding cuts—especially with interactive quizzes and maps—decreases approval and motivates action to oppose the cuts, across the political spectrum. 🧵 1/8 osf.io/preprints/ps...
