New paper using Ecological Momentary Assessment to investigate factors contributing to momentary suicidal ideation by @mareike.bsky.social et al. ⬇️
delighted to see this published 🙌 using EMA, we (with @roryoc.bsky.social) investigated suicidal ideation in daily life. we found that it arises from an interaction of within-person increases in loneliness and an individual’s level of personality functioning psycnet.apa.org/fulltext/202...

Congratulations to SAA EC member @eeskevanroekel.bsky.social for winning a prestigious NWO Vidi grant! 👏
Are emotions helpful or harmful?
Young people learn a lot about emotions from their surroundings: parents, friends, social media.
But what does that actually do to how they feel? 💭

I’m incredibly proud and grateful to have received an #NWO #Vidi grant to study these questions! ✨
Vidi grant awarded to three Tilburg researchers | Tilburg University
NWO has awarded three researchers from Tilburg University a Vidi grant of up to 850,000 euros.

New open access review of 100 studies (18k+ participants): Stress in daily life is mostly self-reported, rarely physiological. Findings are mixed: stress links to both healthier & unhealthier behaviours. Standardised measures & better study quality are needed.
