New preprint alert! (1/5)🌟

I’m thrilled to share the preprint of my first first-authored PhD paper! We test whether shared reinforcement functions help explain why adolescents who engage in one self-destructive behavior often engage in others.

New paper alert! Check out our new manuscript in @SchizRes Cognition, led by Sunghye Cho. Here we used automated speech and language analysis to compare verbal fluency responses from people with psychosis, depression, and healthy controls. 1/5

New preprint alert🚨

We often rely on 0-10 scales to assess suicide urges in EMA and clinical settings. But we rarely ask a surprisingly important question:

What do these numbers mean?

In our new paper, we examine what these ratings mean and how consistently people use them.

What a week! After 5 days, the #mitnb workshop has come to an end. We had a keynote on time scales and two workshops on careless responding and reliability. The central part of the workshops were the hackathons. We had super diverse hackathons, all designed to assess measurement in #ESM. (1/4)

Excited to share our new preprint! We conducted a spatial meta-analysis of community violence and mental health, synthesizing 155 articles (k = 769) to test how exposure to community violence is associated with mental health problems, and how state social service investments moderate the link. 💵

1st day of #MITNB meeting at @tesc-tilburgu.bsky.social. Excited for the week ahead, where we'll tackle measurement issues in #ESM, e.g. modeling processes across timescales, building a formal theory on measurement, and evaluating statistical assumptions in #ESM data.
Go teamwork <3

Last weekend my lab attended our first conference together @harvardwipsych.bsky.social! It was an *incredible* way to wrap up our first year 😍
