🚨 (Another) IPV pub 🚨 to plug :) Internalized stigma has long been theorized to relate to IPV perpetration/use among queer couples, but exactly how remains an open question. I wanted to parse this out more. Lots of findings so go read the paper but some highlights: psycnet.apa.org/record/2027-...

Been a sec but wanted to share a 🚨 new pub 🚨 from earlier this year! This study stemmed from my grad mentor & I struggling to define how much physical IPV was "too much" to exclude couples from a pilot trial we were cooking up at the time onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1...

A Qualitative Study of Couple Therapy Exclusion Practices Related to Mutual Physical Intimate Partner Violence

Physical aggression poses a serious ethical concern for couple therapists, particularly when dealing with recent mutual physical intimate partner violence (IPV). We interviewed 12 expert clinician re...

Love to see this! Tbh I don't think we see enough of this type of careful work poking & prodding our assumptions about the timescale of important processes

Daniel P. Moriarity@dpmoriarity.bsky.social · last mo.

Psychology has been riding the intensive longitudinal train for a bit, but what about immunology? Now live @brainbehavimm.bsky.social, our physiometric report on the stability of inflammatory proteins collected every 3 days for 22 days during a natural stressor 1/X

My poor cat had to have his teeth extracted yesterday and all I can think about is the sheer trauma of him waking up and realizing all his teeth are gone forever 🥺

Big update! It's official: I'm starting as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychology at The City College of New York this fall :) Very much welcome any words of wisdom for navigating the transition 🙏

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?

PsyArXivBot@psyarxivbot.bsky.social · 3mo ago

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

A new paper by @dominiquemakowski.bsky.social, @mattansb.msbstats.info, me and colleagues just out! We show how to choose informative priors in Bayesian regression models using a systematic simulation study and a practical step-by-step tutorial in #Rstats and #Stan! doi.org/10.3389/fpsy... >

Will have more to say about the dySEM paper (w/ @omarjcamanto.bsky.social )/JOSS another time, but for, now, just struck--similar to doing my first Registered Report--in terms of how much I feel like this approach (not without tradeoffs) is a big improvement in terms of scientific value-allignment

Devastated to share that, in fact, you do understand new stats concepts better when you actually run example code with your own data and questions 😭🤣

Want to plug this amazing set of training programs we've put together! Happy to answer any questions about it :)

Yale LGBTQ Mental Health Initiative@yalelgbtqmhi.bsky.social · 11mo ago

What a time to be a scientist in the US rn, but damn what a time to be a postdoc in particular 🙃

Thanks to everybody who chimed in! I arrived at the conclusion that (1) there's a lot of interesting stuff about interactions and (2) the figure I was looking for does not exist. So, I made it myself! Here's a simple illustration of how to control for confounding in interactions:>

Julia M. Rohrer@dingdingpeng.the100.ci · last yr.

Does anybody have a good visualization to explain how interactions can be confounded, and why interactions require interaction controls? @urisohn.bsky.social maybe? (Asking because I have an idea, but want to check out what exists already before investing the effort)

Just received word that our post-bacc RA position at the UPenn Precision Psychopathology + Dynamic Immunopsychiatry Lab should go live this week. Will post the link when it does but, for now, here' s a link with the description. Please repost + share with your team! tinyurl.com/ycyzmmdx
