For those in the clinical psychology world, Marsha Linehan passed away tonight. She was a mentor of mine and a critical part of my training and career trajectory. From what I understand, it was time and those closest to her are at peace, but I'm still processing the heavy news 💔
Freue mich, berichten zu können, dass die Psychotherapeutische Hochschulambulanz für Forschung und Lehre am Institut für Psychologie der Universität Kassel heute bei @unith-ev.bsky.social aufgenommen wurde!
Until now, there are now evidence-based therapy approaches for dissociative identitiy disorder. This is another promising case series, demonstrating that Schema therapy could be effective. The approach is extremely high-dosed though (more than 200 sessions…) doi.org/10.1080/2000...

Say what you will about vibe-coded applications, but WordCraft is the first app that lets you edit native Word files on Linux
Yeah imagine treatments that are effective but we don't know how they work. This would be a first in humankind, that never happened before.
Jetzt kann ich die Karriere eigentlich beenden, wir wurden bei MAITHINK X zitiert
On the way to the Minerva-Gentner Symposium, which more than makes up for the conferences we missed this year! I will present a way to test psychometric network models for robustness against unobserved confounding. www.uni-trier.de/universitaet...

Wenn Kürzungen im Bereich Bildung/Familien damit zusammenfallen, dass gesellschaftliche Probleme auf Familien abgewälzt werden (PISA-Ergebnisse kommen auf einmal dadurch zustande, dass Eltern Bildung nicht so schätzen wie anderswo, usw.) hilft evtl. inference to the best explanation.
Looking forward to the @causalscience.org on Nov 4th-5th. I'll be speaking about mechanism design with applications to people analytics. Hope to continue the discussion there. "Front-door identification often looks impractical because mechanism design is hard.... #causal-inference #bayesian

Yesterday I signed my contract at Julian Rubel's @julianrubel.bsky.social lab. What a great team to work with!
My #awesomelist has been getting quite some traction and different people have been adding lots of new resources they wish they knew when starting their scientific career. Have a look (and contribute) here: github.com/helenahartma...

If you need to digitally sign PDFs from time to time and don't want to install a slow, bloated 2 GB Adobe application, Okular is a nice alternative (<500 MB). It can also fill and edit PDFs - Windows, Mac and Linux. okular.kde.org/de/download/
I think this phenomenon can only be understood as a dramatic, horrific worsening of a preexisting situation.
The 3yo just spooned a piece of runny Epoisses cheese. Might as well apply for French citizenship now. (Her, not me)
The kids these days are usually first of all "the kids " (age effects), maybe also a bit "these days" (period effects) but rarely ever "the kids these days" (cohort effects)
Agreed. People seem to not like the fact that the meta-analytic estimand is the *distribution* of effects. The mean effect is often meaningless and therefore prediction intervals should be seen as the primary statistical result of a meta-analysis.
Bluesky mag ja tot sein, aber für die dümmsten takes zu Danger Dan ist es nach wie vor einfach eine unersetzliche Quelle
Es macht mich einfach nur noch fassungslos. Die Psychotherapie soll offenbar eine Selbstzahlerleistung werden- niemand von den PsychotherapeutInnen wird ohne Wissen, was man verdient, eine Praxis aufrechterhalten können mit KassenpatientInnen. Und das ist es: genau das ist politischer Wille.
Sascha@medienmonolog.bsky.social · 4mo agoEs gab Änderungsanträge zum GKV-Beitragsstabilisierungsgesetz. Mit dabei: Die gesetzlich garantierte Mindestvergütung für Psychotherapie soll gestrichen werden. Die Psychotherapie in Deutschland ist in Gefahr.

Ein paar hitzebedingte Posts: - Gestern ist der Unterricht wegen Hitze ausgefallen - Neben der Schule ist eine der größten Hitzeinseln Berlins, die Bismarckstraße. Hier wurden schon Temperaturen um die 60 Grad gemessen, dafür erzeugen die Autos zusätzlich Lärm, Abgase und Unfälle.
Tim Kaiser@tkaiser.science · 5mo agoBeim Thema Klimaanlagen sieht man auf Bluesky gerade wie mit aller Gewalt ein neues Kulturkampfthema hergestellt wird obwohl eigentlich keiner mehr wirklich Bock drauf hat.

My reading of Hayes (2004) is that psychotherapy jumped the shark during the second wave
It's a survey on optimism, it's expected to skew towards early adopters. A startup founder in Bangalore is surely more enthusiastic than a data-labelling worker in Kenya, but both are the "Global South", just like many others whose labor, land, water and minerals are exploited.
Thorne 🌸 needs a job!@ens0.me · 5mo agoOne of the things the neo-Luddite Left really needs to hear a lot more is the Global South *loves* AI. So many people there see it as a an equalizer that makes them more able to compete in the global economy against those of us from wealthy countries.
