🚨Breaking🚨: NIH is terminating health disparities research grants again. This time, they may successfully avoid legal challenges by giving specific reasons for their decisions. One grant so far, more to come. Exclusive @science.org by me and @jocelynkaiser.bsky.social www.science.org/content/arti...

Excited to share a paper recently accepted at Nature Mental Health! 😄 For decades, we've assumed that covariance among psychopathology informs comorbidity. What if we’ve been wrong?

Covariation among higher-order psychopathology dimensions is driven by nomorbidity, not comorbidity: https://osf.io/3t2cm

When you share a scathing critique of current psychology and someone sends you a paper by Paul Meehl

I’m not a particularly fashionable person, but nowhere do I feel so dismally unfashionable as I do in Copenhagen

Very excited for #aps26bcn... the schedule is stacked! Any factor analysis nerds or skeptics wanna meet up at my poster? 🗣️ "Accounting for Zero Inflation Worsens the Structural Validity of the DSM-5 Substance Use Disorder Criterion Set" (w/ @ashleylwatts.bsky.social) 📍 Poster 122, 8-9pm Friday

My favorite thing about Love’s truck stops is their consistently niche selection of Pokémon plushies. Zero recent starters but ten Togetics from Pokémon Gold and Silver (1999)

Don't be shy to take on a little two-week side project. These five months will be the most precious three years of your academic journey.

What are good papers squaring high suicidal ideation with low suicide rates during COVID?

Very stoked to share that I'm joining Temple University's Clinical Psych PhD program this fall! I'll be doing critically minded and methods-heavy work on measurement, depression, and suicide in adolescents with @olinotom.bsky.social. Feeling super grateful! If you're in Philly, say hi :)

If Metro Nashville wants to build dedicated transit lanes on state-controlled corridors, it needs the sign-off of the TN General Assembly. This week, the legislature is nearing approval of the city’s plans for dedicated lanes downtown and along Gallatin and Nolensville pikes. @stelliott.bsky.social

“how precarious is research funding in the US these days?“ well there’s a subreddit where students are making ggplots to predict whether GRFP comes out on a Tuesday

I'm telling you right now, do not trust that cutoff CFI > .95. he is not worth your time. he will give you trust issues and then some

NSF updated the GRFP website with FAQs, mostly to do with outcry about (many) applications being returned without review. "The number of applications RWR has not changed substantially" they say. Translated: the proportion RWR likely ~doubled.

DOGE Bro’s Grant Review Process Was Literally Just Asking ChatGPT ‘Is This DEI?’ Federal grants that had been approved after a full application and review process were terminated by some random inexperienced DOGE bros based on whether ChatGPT could explain—in under 120 characters—that they were…

INVESTIGATION: Over the last 5 months, the Banner and a coalition of partners analyzed 52 hours of footage and thousands of pages of documents from a joint THP/ICE operation targeting Nashville’s predominantly immigrant neighborhoods. Here’s what we found: (1/11) ✍️ @sarahgracetaylor.bsky.social

I’m reading Susan Sontag’s Regarding the Pain of Others, about the development of wartime photography. Sontag is so arresting, always: “To catch a death actually happening and embalm it for all time is something only cameras can do”. If only she were still around.

New preprint! We investigate the risk of algorithmic bias (across race/ethnicity, gender, and their intersection) in machine learning models predicting suicide attempts across 3 clinical settings in over 1.2 million patients. osf.io/preprints/ps...

STOP putting AI in everything!!!!!!!! I don't need it!!!!!!!! What I NEED is for my computer to not run out of RAM!!!!!!!!

going to start supplementing everyone’s sterile academic bluesky feeds with important insights from gay Twitter

At the point on the dunning kruger curve where I realize I know very little but am also unimpressed by bifactor models

As NSF GRFP is in the news, PLEASE spread the word about the new EGFP program they have for past GRFP honorable mentions. Universities in eligible states can apply to get funding for HMs in the same amount as GRFP. My impression is that many depts don't know this exists and so don't apply.

The United States of precarious research conditions and abandoned longitudinal studies. I am 24 years old and want to be a scientist. Why would I stay here?

Sorry, but if you're in a top-tier PhD program, with a stipend of $40k+, and/or you otherwise have the material resources and clout to afford conferences -- the student travel award is 99.9% chance not for you

Anyhow, I'm listening to AG Cook and my code is working. That's all! Thank you
