Come for the thread, stay for the preprint! Lead author Dr Lisa Starr describes the consensus guidelines we developed to help improve the quality and rigor of stress generation research.

I highly recommend reading this before you design your next stress gen project.
After nearly 2 years of debating and redrafting, the preprint is out:

Towards Next-Generation Stress Generation Research: Expert Consensus Methodological Guidelines

Please check out this interesting and important new paper from the COVID-19 Mental Health Workgroup, led by Mary Blendermann. The piece unpacks longitudinal associations among constructs pertinent to understanding anxiety symptoms.

As a bonus: it’s been great to learn from this team.
Just accepted at Behavior Therapy!

Using COVID-19 Mental Health Workgroup data, Mary Blendermann shows that anxiety prospectively predicted changes in worry, but worry did not mediate the association between anxiety and difficulty concentrating over time.
