Last week my university @UGent approved non-competitive research financing for all professors. The idea is that each professor (all ranks) would receive a yearly amount of research funding of ca. 30.000 euro (so two professors can jointly hire one PhD student). 1/2

Is there principled work on using extreme rather than mean features for prediction? Is there a name for this? Eg maybe not someone’s average daily mood predicts depression onset, but the number of really bad days (which may impact the mean a little but is largely independent).

This is out now! A child-centred and future-ready policy brief with UNICEF for the #G20/#T20 Taskforce on Affordable, Accessible, and Inclusive Digital Public Infrastructure.

We see a lot of papers rejected for drawing very complex serial causal models from cross-sectional data. A good read on the topic (and the concerns related to these analyses)? Chan et al (2020) from JoBEM: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10…

Very interesting thread for everyone working with ESM data!

We are sharing an open dataset of >300 children, 3–12-years-old, including 64 (neurotypical) children assessed longitudinally and 68 autistic children, each answering >40 ToM questions ranging in difficulty. 10 years of Hilary Richardson @hilaryrichardson.bsky.social's and Saxelab's data! Please re-use.

For those working with intensive longitudinal data, as collected via the experience sampling method (ESM) / ecological momentary assessment (EMA): I will be teaching my 'ESM Data Analysis' course again this year (December 6-8). For further info, see: wvbauer.com/doku.php/cours…

Dubin (1969) on descriptive research:

If you like more guidance through the steps of a sample size justification for your next study, my Sample Size Justification paper comes with a Shiny app: shiny.ieis.tue.nl/sample_size_ju… Complete the steps, and you can download the justification as a PDF to include in a preregistration.

Sharing this Stage 2 RR preprint with @DelaliKonu Sam Forbes. I thought why not collect #EMA with ExpiWell every hour 8am-10pm for 1 day? 103 of 362 completed all surveys. I went truly descriptive this time. Lots of things to unpack; a few highlights 🧵 psyarxiv.com/m8ax4

Come work with us! We are looking for a PhD student to work on our project on the role of social influence processes for the effect of (perceived) social & mobile media use on mental health. vacatures.uva.nl/UvA/job/PhD-in…

📢 New preprint! 📢 Interested in capturing the social life of participants? We describe how ESM can be combined with personal social networks (PSN). This combination delivers detailed data on social interactions and social relationships. 💬👥 osf.io/preprints/psya…

I'm looking for examples of studies that have used trace data to analyse 'enterprise social media' (i.e, Slack, Teams etc.) use. 💻📱 Anything from automatic exports or scraping of message histories for analysis... 🔩 Any leads appreciated 🙏
