I don't know how Twitch works and at this point I'm scared to ask

Sorry all! No "Theory Thursdays" today. Lot of work things piling up that take priority. Also! From here-on out, I'm pushing Theory Thursdays back an hour to 7pm Eastern so I have time to eat after I get back from work. I'm going to try to stream on Twitch some time this weekend as an apology!

Now that I'm back home, I can finally tell you where I've been... After VeXpo, I went to Japan!! It was so motivating seeing VTubers everywhere! I want to keep working hard! Here's me at the Hololive store in Harajuku!! Art by the amazing @myelinachemon.bsky.social 🧡

We're finally reading the Dark Souls paper! Join me in about 15 minutes to read about how a very specific video game may help its players deal with depression!

The titles of Japanese manga have literally doubled in length since 2011, according to study https://automaton-media.com/en/news/the-titles-of-japanese-manga-have-literally-doubled-in-length-since-2011-according-to-study/

With all of the excitement about scicomm VTubers, I thought I'd reintroduce myself! Hi! I'm Myelin, and I have a PhD in social psychology! I talk psychology and statistics on stream- and sometimes I have other researchers on to share their work! (lovely graphic made by @psydere.com)

I listed data analysis in R in my skills on on VGen and if anyone commissions me for that I will crack the hell up

You can find me at VeXpo all weekend! 📸 Photos are okay but please cover my face! ❌ I probably won't shake your hand or hug you! I have eczema and am in pain!!! 🧢 please be patient i have autism My meet and greet is at 1pm on Saturday at the Waifu Wares booth! Hopefully I'll see you there hehe

See you in 10 minutes for this week's Theory Thursday! We're reading this: myscp.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

🚨 It's published! 🚨 This is the big one. 100 cultures, 12,000 people, 108 researchers. Why people (and our most-used surveys) get collectivism wrong and how to fix it. www.nature.com/articles/s41... @natureportfolio.nature.com

Thanks to everyone who made it to my impromptu art stream today! We drew a lot! And thank you so much @blairevt.bsky.social for the raid! (Holy cow I love your model and art style!)

We're bringing back Theory Thursdays! For the foreseeable future, I'll be streaming on Youtube every Thursday at 6pm Eastern. Let's read and discuss some empirical papers together!

In other news, I apologize for my lack of streams and videos! I've been busy preparing for the semester. I'm hoping to do a paper reading stream and a study design stream some time in the near future!

Wow. So my main takeaway from this is that due to CERN's special status, it's relationship with privacy and GDPR is complex, and possibly not a great place to store pseudonymised data #mindBlown

New Blog post: Which Data Repository Should you Use? In light of OSF closing down, I compare Zenodo, Dataverse, ResearchBox, PsychArchive, and local repositories on six important dimensions. If you want to know which to pick: It depends! daniellakens.blogspot.com/2026/08/whic...

would you forgive me if I told you I plan to take notes directly in the academic book I'm reading?

I'm still so over the moon about this! I've got some cool stuff in store, so look forward to it!
