I will be reviewing grad school applications for the clinical psych program at Stony Brook this year. Students interested in personalization, case conceptualization, ecological momentary assessment, LGBTQ+ mental health, LLMs, and related topics, should consider applying. www.prplab-science.com

As a PhD student designing my first survey, I added what I thought was a throwaway question at the end. To my surprise, thousands of academics answered it! The paper is out today: doi.org/10.1093/pnas...

On Rt 90 somewhere between Erie and Buffalo there is a sign that says “Correctional Facility Area: Do Not Pick Up Hitchhikers” and I really want to know there’s a backstory.

FYI #SRP2026 if you haven't booked restaurant reservations do it NOW. They weren't kidding about the football weekend issue– Getting a dinner for 6 booked for Friday was an extreme sport. @srpsychopathology.bsky.social

Come join me in the Emotions in Context Lab at the University of Kansas! I will be taking PhD students in Fall 2027.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

holy fucking shit - see Claude Code (Opus 5.5) rip through a survey eligility test I was really proud of... It requires tracing a route through designated points on a map with server-side Javascript applying eligibility criteria. (1.5 min video)

When journals ask you to rate a paper 0-100, how do you interpret the scale? Do you use the whole range? Do you treat it like an academic grade where anything below 60 is failing? What about papers that have potential but need revision? Why are we using a scale with no standards or reference points?

I will be reviewing applications this admissions cycle (pending funding). This time, I'll be looking for folks interested in research within our training clinic. We have implemented ROM, and want to build on that infrastructure. Other research is possible; the primary goal is clinical research.

Come be my colleague!! We are hiring THREE tenure-track folks at the University of Arkansas this fall: (1) clinical, (2) social, and (3) cognitive. Clinical is looking ideally for a child/adolescent person but the area is technically open. All ads linked here: psychology.uark.edu

I’m accepting applications for PhD students to join my lab in Fall 2027! Our work focuses on psychopathology, personality, classification and assessment, and using AI with intensive longitudinal methods to better understand mental health. See the lab site for more info: ringwaldlab.psych.umn.edu

I'll be reviewing applications for a new student or two for UNC-CH's clinical psychology PhD program! Social anxiety, pain, intensive longitudinal data, all that fun stuff. What prospective applicants get if they email me (so no need): docs.google.com/document/d/1... Lab: tarheels.live/rodelab/

In case you missed it--reposting appreciated. If you are working with folks who are applying this year, you may also want to know about this handy list: docs.google.com/spreadsheets... that @allisonharvey.bsky.social has organized!

The US President's new proposal to tax international students has been approved by the White House for release this week. It's an unprecedented $100,000 tax on int'l grads who stay to work after graduation on Optional Practical Training (most grads do), a crucial bridge to remaining by any channel.

When people get nostalgic for America's post-9/11 response I can tell they're either really young, really forgetful, or really into jingoistic, anti-Islamic insanity.

I’m pleased to share that I’ll be considering grad students for Fall 2027 admissions to the University of Rochester’s clinical psychology program. I’m working on updating my website (more to come)— check it out to learn more about who we are and what we do www.psych.rochester.edu/research/sta...

Saying yes to collaborations: A love story 🧵 Inspired by a conversation w/ one of my grad students today about if she should take on a collaboration. We focus a lot on learning to say no (there are even punch cards) but IMO learning to say yes to the right things is equally important. . .
