Been working to create more accessible tools for getting started with R for psychologists. GitHub Pages has been a great tool for allowing me to do this (dharaden.github.io/psyc640/). Aiming to create another site for a broader audience and would love suggestions!

I will be recruiting at least 1 PhD student for the Sleep, Circadian Rhythms, and Psychopathology (SCRAP) Lab at WashU in STL this application cycle! ☀️⏰😴 Read more about our current projects here: sites.wustl.edu/scraplab/

My lab is hiring a lab manager! Application deadline = 11/1, start date sometime between June & September 2026 (to be arranged with finalist). Please spread the word & apply here: opportunities.columbia.edu/jobs/a3f80f7.... #AcademicSky #PhdSky #PsychSciSky #SocialPsyc #DevPsyc #psychjobs

We're going to see a lot of bullshit in the coming days and weeks about "causes of autism", and most will be based on flawed, over-interpreted observational studies (1/n)

On Prolific, "we estimate that about 34% of online study participants use LLMs to answer open-ended questions atleast some of the time..." Seems like a very timely paper for behavioural scientists using online samples: osf.io/preprints/so... ; We really need more papers on this issue

Really proud of what I've got so far for my Grad Stats course. I wanted to create something that could be easily looked back on or referred to. A lot of students are uncomfortable with R (and most of the stats), so I'm trying to create an open and supportive environment. dharaden.github.io/psyc640/

Finally feeling like I can take a peek at this space again! Hello to everyone here again. Look forward to some hot takes and random memes with some science! Probably more Bluey than science. What'd I miss out on? Have y'all heard about this Bem guy?

It's that time of year: I'll be considering MA and PhD applicants for this cycle. FAQ for applicants here: docs.google.com/document/d/1... #PsychSciSky

📢New Pub 📢 The wonderful Kathleen McCormick lead this paper examining the impact of the pandemic on the puberty & depression relationship We found that pandemic youth did not show a relation highlighting the importance of considering socio-historical context link.springer.com/article/10.1...

I was once asked, "Is it weird that my intro psych professor assigned the final paper as a reflection on a debate whether or not a certain argument is pseudoscience? It strikes me as out of place." My response was: It's not out of place of all. 1/6 #AprSciLiteracy #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky #EduSky

Sky network: I need recommendations of intellectually engaging podcasts that are NOT politically saturated. Any suggestions?

What are some topics that folks would like to see covered?

With everything happening in the world, I want to put out something positive that folks would find helpful I was thinking either a video series on using R called "Mr. R-gers" or introducing basic elements to improve mental health. Then donate any revenue to The Trevor Project or something similar

Very thoughtful thread on LLMs in psychological science!

Happy APPIC Match Day to those who celebrate! For some of you, this email is extremely exciting and you are planning on working in an environment of your dreams For others, you feel defeated and overwhelmed. Thoughts about not being good enough. Whichever group you are in, YOU ARE GOOD ENOUGH!

If you were to **hypothetically** find a resource that has a list of psych measures, what types of information would you like to have included? Original paper & reliability? Updates on psychometric properties in other samples? Link to measure? A possibility to submit or vote on measures?

My grad student @dayhreeming.bsky.social just had some of his previous work talked about in a recent post www.psypost.org/anxiety-boos... Hopefully we can continue his work examining creativity, chronotype and mood! Nice work Hreem!!

I’ve now posted the National YRBS data, 2015-2023, here. I’ll add the state and district data soon. www.datalumos.org/datalumos/pr...

Teaching about measurement in class and folks have a hard time identifying a good measure! I've seen some databases out there, but is there something I'm missing where a site has the open access measure, citation, initial reliability, and maybe # of pubs? Or is this a pipe dream? #psychscisky

Students are facing unimaginable challenges and worries with *waves hands around furiously* everything Any clinicians out there aware of brief distress tolerance and other interventions that are evidence based? Would love to get a list going! Please share

Having an office across the hall from a general classroom has its perks. Today I am learning Japanese as the students chant the phrases back to the instructor. Or I'm being initiated into something else...

If you start writing on that paper you have been putting off at 11:26:42, you will hear yourself say "This is a terrible paper" right at midnight!! 🎆

All are welcome inc: parents, educators and clinicians, siblings etc. Autistic voices are centered, though 🫶 #AutRes

Very interesting piece reporting on some early research. Could Vitamin D benefit mood symptoms above that of antidepressants? I think there is going to be a boom of research in the light therapy and circadian rhythm space to promote better mood www.bps.org.uk/research-dig...

Hey folks: A little plug for those interested. I have a course on Designing Psychological Research w Diverse Populations where we go into a bunch of pertinent topics including: - Intersectionality fundamentals - Measurement: Demography & beyond - Invariance, IRT - Sampling considerations - Bots! etc

I wish I could do another postdoc! This seems like such a cool opportunity!!

Recently got a portion of my dissertation accepted to Research on Child and Adolescent Psychopathology! Very excited to share all the hard work that has gone into this project Special thanks to @juliannegrif.bsky.social, @benhankin.bsky.social and Kathleen McCormick

Everyone is talking about Bem and rightly so. I still remember having a lab meeting about it as a senior in college. My advisor flat out said it’s false positive after letting us entertain the possibility of precognition. The lab then joined the big Science replication project. That radicalized me.
