The APA just put out recommendations on using AI for mental health support. I think access to resources is important, and using AI wisely is imperative

It felt like a long shot but my submission to chair a symposium at the Society for Research in Psychopathology Meeting was accepted! ✨ I’m super excited to discuss how complementarity, or how people match in interactions, can help us understand the context in which personality pathology manifests ☺️

A warm lab sendoff to Rana Kalkan who spent a very cold semester visiting the lab from KU Leuven!

Show of hands, how many of us are ready for this madness to end — and for Congress to do their job?🙋 Sign on to endorse the articles of impeachment against RFK Jr. 👉 standupforscience.net/impeac... 📲Tag your representative below. Let them know that they need to step up and meet the moment!

Psychologists, what are your favorite (open) data sets for teaching multilevel modelling? I have a lot of observational examples, would love a therapy RCT with varying effects for therapists or some such.

It's becoming increasingly clear that many of these events are orchestrated (either a-priori or post-hoc) to target trans people and generate widespread outrage. We all could benefit from the @onthemedia.bsky.social Breaking News Consumer handbook: www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/otm...

Chester and Maple are ready for winter! (They pulled these off shortly after)

The psych job market may not be dead... but it is gravely injured 😬 So far it's looking like the Trump administration's attacks on higher ed/research are going to have more than 2x the impact on the job market as the covid-19 pandemic. #psychjobs #neurojobs #academicjobs
