As someone who studies a Thing That Doesn't Happen Very Often, it's so helpful to see this proposed analytic framework for zero-inflated intensive longitudinal data. You run a multilevel SEM that separately models the outcome in binary and continuous ways. psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-...

Compared to a lot of other subfields, always enjoy the amount of physiometric research in EEG research. Will have to play around with the ERP Reliability Analysis Toolbox when I get the amplifiers up and running by Peter Clayson pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38228400/

My first paper as an Assistant Professor at UC Davis is out in the journal SEM! In the paper, we introduce a continuous-time extension to the GIMME model implemented in OpenMx. It uses iterative tests of modification indices to construct group- and person-specific dynamic networks!

Like so many, I’m new here and excited to share a short 🧵 about our paper in the current issue of Nature Human Behaviour (@naturehumbehav.bsky.social)! Key takeaway: The influence of emotions on financial decision-making is not universal but varies substantially and systematically across countries.

Big news from Finnish publication forum. Almost all MDPI and Frontiers journals will be downgraded to level 0 and thus are not considered as properly peer reviewed trustworthy scientific journals. julkaisufoorumi.fi/en/news/chan...

A prospective study of U.S. veterans spanning before and during COVID finds nearly 40% experienced rising loneliness over 3 years. Marriage and purpose in life reduced risk, while early trauma and mental health challenges heightened vulnerability. doi-org.proxy.library.cornell.edu/10.1093/gero...

📊New study published in Emotion sheds light on affect dynamics in depression. Analysis of 842 adults over 56 days shows negative affect becomes more 'sticky' rather than unstable. This suggests emotional predictability, not instability, may be key. psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-...

We look upon the present as something to be put up with while it lasts, and serving only as the way towards our goal. Hence most people, if they glance back when they come to the end of life, will find that all along they have been living ad interim. - Schopenhauer

I made a Shiny app to perform equivalence tests for summary statistics. Currently only has the functions for t-tests. Is this useful, or is everyone just comfortable enough using R nowadays? Should I add the other tests form TOSTER? shiny.ieis.tue.nl/toster/
