I had the pleasure of publishing an introduction to instrumental variables co-authored with Henrik Daae Zachrisson for the #JClinEpi key concepts in clinical epidemiology series! 🔬📖 www.jclinepi.com/article/S089...

Now published in JCPP Advances! 📜 acamh.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... With @omidvebrahimi.bsky.social and Sarah Bauermeister

New paper! 📜 In nearly 50,000 individuals randomly sampled from the general population, we apply a symptom-specific perspective to examine which anxiety and depressive symptoms are most strongly associated with various aspects of financial adversity doi.org/10.1016/j.ss...

An abbreviation (ABB) in a journal article (JA) or Grant Application (GA) is rarely worth the words it saves. Every ABB requires cognitive resources (CR) and at my age by the time I'm halfway through a JA or GA I no longer have the CR to remember what your ABB stood for.

Childhood bereavement was associated with an increased risk of psychiatric disorders in adulthood, partly due to changes in stress resilience measured in late adolescence. https://ja.ma/44jTkEo

How Accurate & Consistent are Self-Report responses via Visual Analogue Scales (VAS) in Ecological Momentary Assessment & Digital Studies? Examined in a massive EMA study (N = 3,761), our new #OpenAccess piece on this is just out: online.ucpress.edu/collabra/art... #PsychSciSky #AcademicSky 🧵:

📢 Super excited to share this work: We examine how childhood bereavement is linked to an increased risk of psychiatric disorders, and identify altered stress resilience as a mediating mechanism, using data from 1.7 million individuals followed for up to 34 years (!) jamanetwork.com/journals/jam...

New paper! 📜 Most of my work relies on large cohort datasets. But how can we ensure transparency and robust research findings using such data? Here, we present a case study of reproducible practices in epi (with MoBa) and a practical example showing how these practices can be applied.

Hvordan har du det? Vi samler inn data fra hele verden gjennom en kort spørreundersøkelse (3–4 min). Vi ser på hvordan folk har det – psykisk, sosialt og økonomisk – og hva de tror om fremtiden ett år fra nå. Delta gjerne via denne lenken (English available): cumc.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...

We have a new paper in Behaviour Research and Therapy highlighting direct and indirect effects of a digital wellbeing intervention in a large RCT. Led by Monica Beer Prydz, with @espenr.bsky.social, Nikolai Czajkowski, and Ragnhild Bang Nes. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

New PhD position available in our group focused on exercise interventions for depression and anxiety: www.finn.no/job/fulltime...

Excited to share this new preprint! Here, we provide new knowledge on avoidant and restrictive eating (ARFI) phenotypes in childhood, developmental characteristics of affected children, and genetic underpinnings of ARFI, using data from MoBa in a large pre-registered study osf.io/preprints/ps...

@eikofried.bsky.social being as kind and supportive as ever about our collab work on perceptions of social determinants months before i got my act together on bluesky. preprint accessible here: osf.io/preprints/ps...

Want to opt out of the next 3 years? Do a postdoc in Oslo! PATHWAY will study mental health in persons with autism using #MoBa and Nordic registers. It's a collaboration between #Ahus, @uio.no and @ki.se Please share! Apply here: 2411.webcruiter.no/Main2/Recrui...

New preprint! We find no evidence that parental mental health influences children's academic achievement when comparing families in the Norwegian MoBa study. osf.io/preprints/ps... Quick thread 👇

We have a new preprint out examining how different types of childhood maltreatment experiences and genetic liability predict (main and interaction effects) five different eating disorder diagnostic outcomes in up to 63,989 individuals: osf.io/preprints/ps...

Self-help books often cite population studies as evidence that you can change your life with one simple trick. X will improve your health. Y will make you more successful. But there's a crucial catch... 1/

1/ What do people perceive as causes for depression, poverty, & mortality—and are social or non-social causes more important? New preregistered study led by Emma Bridger in a n=1000 UK sample, including a wide variety of perceived causes. #episky #psychscisky #PublicHealth 🧪

Interesting perspective paper on the concept of social health and its implications for mental health

Fantastic work led by Laura Hegemann highlighting direct and indirect genetic effects (which operate through the environment) on neurodevelopmental traits in early life 🧬🏠

The special issue of Development and Psychopathology entitled “The Future of Developmental Psychopathology: Honoring the Contributions of Dante Cicchetti” is published! My intro to the volume is doi.org/10.1017/S095... A link to all of the papers from luminaries is in the field is in the comments

*Networks of care for the modern adolescent* 🫶🌻 In our new paper, we combine a #network approach + applied research lens to explore where #youngpeople are accessing #mentalhealth support & how helpful they find it. w/ Simon R White & @minafazeloxford.bsky.social www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

New preprint investigating how urban-rural living is related to mental health 🏠 led by @adamfinnemann.bsky.social

How does where we live – urban, rural, or in-between – relate to our mental health? 🌆🏞️ In this cross-country study, we investigate the links between urbanicity, anxiety and depressive disorders in 500,000 adults across the UK, Norway, and New Zealand 🧵 doi.org/10.31219/osf...

Global Collaboration Opportunity: If you are (or know someone) from a country often missed in research, and are interested in a global study on mental health like this one, please write to me! We have many team members in Europe and English-speaking countries, but would love to involve many more!

I'm thrilled to share this work from my time at @ox.ac.uk (Department of Psychiatry), in which we investigate temporal and contemporaneous within-person associations between adolescent mental health difficulties and various aspects of the family environment 🧵 osf.io/preprints/ps...

I wrote about bridging ideographic (dynamic systems) theory in psychology and genetic epidemiology when I couldn't sleep. its about trying to bridge scientific worlds, getting ppl to recognise shared goals, and trying to take English ppl to a good bar in Amsterdam and failing (spelling quality: 3am)

☀️🤝 In this new paper, we find that associations between diverse social factors (from relationship satisfaction to loneliness to attachment) and wellbeing are robust to unmeasured shared confounding cross-sectionally and across six years in older adults link.springer.com/article/10.1...

New Preprint and my final PhD paper🥲! We combined symptom and brain networks to look at symptom-specific associations between internalizing problems and functional connectivity in adolescents. doi.org/10.31234/osf...

We have a new preprint out examining symptom-specific polygenic associations with maternal mental health during pregnancy and postpartum in up to 59,000 MoBa mothers 🧬🌧️☀️ osf.io/preprints/ps...

In our new #OpenAccess paper, we provide an overview of frequently used and modern network analytic techniques for psychological science & the mental health field Out today at IJMPR with this stellar team of co-authors #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky #Methodology onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
