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??

Yes please! Esp. LGBTQ+ journals, I don’t know of any that accept them
I love Registered Reports because it's no fun wrestling with reviewers about design decisions that we can do nothing about after data collection. But still, SO few journals in my research area accept them.
So I just fired off a load of this email. Here if you want to do the same: osf.io/n6bx9

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.

Terrifying and absolutely destructive. Can't think of any reason why this would be warranted.

5/ The editor’s comment confirmed the coding error but failed to mention its impact on the paper’s results. The author concluded that the results were “not robust”. The journal did not post our comment, BUT the replication files allowed us to do the replication we wanted to do from the start.

This is rough for a lot of reasons, ugh. Not sure if it's actually useful, but this is a guide for getting a DOI for a GitHub repo (which can host the preprint + any code for sure. could also host data but would want to be careful to not commit anything sensitive + would need to be small files)
