Returning from leave to officially start my sabbatical! Mostly working on paper edits today to get in before a deadline, but also starting the day with some bell hooks in the sun… … and a grant rejection to really kick things off on the right note 🫠

As of today I am officially on research sabbatical for a year! I’ll miss teaching but am excited to have a year to read, write, and think…

Psychologists & related fields: what is a big methods question that you believe remains somewhat unanswered & that you'd love to see adressed? There may be an opportunity for a large-scale meta-science project with many teams trying to figure out a question. Any thoughts welcome! #psychscisky

Youth mental health difficulties have increased in prevalence (rather than better awareness) and key drivers likely include economic precarity, smartphone use, sleep quality and closure of youth services. An excellent piece of research led by @olademk.bsky.social

I love Registered Reports because it's no fun wrestling with reviewers about design decisions that we can do nothing about after data collection. But still, SO few journals in my research area accept them. So I just fired off a load of this email. Here if you want to do the same: osf.io/n6bx9
