After a long peer-review process, I'm so excited to share a pre-proofed version of our paper titled "Social Support among LGBTQ, Cisgender, and Heterosexual Undergraduate Students: An Egocentric Social Network Study," accepted for publication in the American Psychologist. osf.io/preprints/ps...

Wow... Corrupt of ethnics and all morals. www.newsobserver.com/news/local/e...

1/ What is the prevalence of personally identifiable information (PII) in author-collected data publicly shared in the social sciences? We audited 327 replication packages from 11 leading journals in economics, political science, and psychology Answer: surprisingly high 🧵

Be the change you want to see. I'm sending an email to ask if we can add #anonymization to #ICPSR.

Did you know: you can anonymize a GitHub repo for peer review? A real alternative for OSF anonymous.4open.science

Over the next several months, we will phase out some popular OSF features. These changes do not affect current public content, which remains safe and accessible. We have prepared support material to help users adapt. I am very sorry for the disruption to your work. Please read this post for details.

Wow. OSF.io is shutting down file/data storage after 11/6/26? mailchi.mp/osf/osf_anno...

🚨New Paper Alert!🚨 Family rejection is prospectively associated with increased minority stressors and depression in LGBTQ youth! doi.org/10.1111/fare...

We need to change norms around sexual harassment Yesterday Tessa West spoke up about a sexual harassment complaint she filed against John Jost. Not only is he a senior colleague in the dept of psychology, but he is one of the most prominant figures in the field of social and political psychology.

NEW MAJOR LAVAAN UPDATE: - consistent function names - more ways to estimate SAM standard errors - categorical ML-SEMs Looks like most changes are related to underlying code lavaan.ugent.be/history/dot7...

Excited to share a paper recently accepted at Nature Mental Health! 😄 For decades, we've assumed that covariance among psychopathology informs comorbidity. What if we’ve been wrong?

🫣 New major update to 'lavaan' coming soon... #lavaan #rstats

Finally, a spine! What a miracle. It only took recognizing that you will be thrown aside to wake up.

Wow! Huge #blimp v4 update! www.appliedmissingdata.com/blimp - 3-level SEM - DSEM - and more!!!! A huge win for open science.

Me: let me submit this Bayesian paper to this great journal! R2: There are no p-values, so I can’t assess results. Reject. 🫠

Is the NDA.NIH.GOV down for anyone else? Have not been able to sign in.

Are we still posting our raw datasets now that they're being farmed for genAI-written papers? I'm starting to feel differently now sharing data before I'm totally done with my own research questions...

The NSF 2027 budget has noted that they will close out the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Science Program (SBE). This is not a good thing. nsf-gov-resources.nsf.gov/files/FY-202...

New preprint out today (osf.io/preprints/ps...). We tested whether AI agents are actually infiltrating online surveys. Spoiler alert: they aren't Thread 🧵 [1/9]

The Supreme Court’s ruling that “conversion therapy” cannot be banned does not change the fact that the literature overwhelmingly shows that sexual orientation and gender identity change efforts cause serious, lasting harm to individuals exposed to such efforts.

The international boycott of ChatGPT has absolutely exploded. 2.5M people have already joined, and this is just the beginning. Go to quitgpt.org. Cancel your subscription, delete your account. And tell at least one person why. My op-ed: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Quantitative psychologists, why did no one tell me a SINGLE Monte Carlo simulation condition was going to take me HOURS to run...

We already know that lagged effects in CLPMs are likely to be upwardly biased, but just how easy is it to find significant effects? Way too easy. I tested CLPMS in 100 randomly selected pairs of correlated variables and found significant effects in 98 of them. New preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...

STATS PEOPLE: Specifically, people who use Mplus for LPA/LCAs, do you have any references to why we do NOT need to use any family-wise error control for BCH distal outcome pairwise tests between class/profile solutions??

IMPORTANT UPDATE IMPORTANT UPDATE Regarding APHU/ACLU et al. vs. NIH Lawsuit

PBS News is not going anywhere. We will continue our work without fear or favor, as we have for nearly five decades on the air. We are profoundly grateful to Viewers Like You for your loyalty and unwavering support.

Yes please! Esp. LGBTQ+ journals, I don’t know of any that accept them

What the helly? Where's IL????

Hey #psych crew! We want to launch a rapid response around the end of the LGBTQ+ 988 resource. Any one in the suicide/LGBTQ+ space interested in helping?

🚨HUGE SCIENCE WIN ALERT🚨 NIH Grants to be restored en masse!!! Thank you Judge Young for standing up for science! #StandUpforScience #SummerFightforScience

Very smart, high ROI initiative from the Spencer Foundation. Providing bridge funding for canceled NSF grants: 1) directs funds to projects already screened by a top-noch review process. 2) avoids imposing proposal prep costs on researchers. 3) ameliorates the disruption from GOP sabotage.
