back to this thread 10 days later… this was an absolutely wild thing to say. What is happening 🙀

Thanks to the journal, reviewers, students on the paper, Luke Hyde, and @colterm.bsky.social. ALL raw data is publicly available @cos.io [link in paper] so go wild re-analyzing it! #science

Reviewers improved implications … we should lean in to practices promoted by @ohbmofficial.bsky.social incl COBIDAS guidelines. Journal-level intervention also an avenue. @bidsstandard.bsky.social is another piece. “Community-driven neuroscience” out of my lab will also be part of changing the field

We also had an inkling that larger studies would not necessarily be more transparent in reporting practices… data supported this hypothesis. Looking at research visibility, study sample size but not transparency was strongly linked to 2-year citation counts … so study N is rewarded

Nice figure put together by grad student Deena Shariq: in all 134 papers that reported education continuously, only 3 reported study sample education levels lower than the country of recruitment average; most samples are “over educated”

We found that most standard methodological details were not reported. Particularly bad IMO were recruitment procedures (29%), inclusion/exclusion criteria (46%), and reasons for missing imaging data (31%). Only 15% and 28% of paper reported race-ethnicity and SES, respectively

We were interested in documenting reporting practices related to generalizability, replicability, and reliability of MRI/fMRI papers published in top journals journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

For now, check out the "Our Neighborhood, Our Stories" series that Joelle worked on with @dcpubliclibrary.bsky.social Commissioner Ra Amin, and the Brookland Intergenerational Village (brooklandvillage.org). findingyourgood.org/repurposed-p... (8/8)

We learned a lot ... community members' goals for researchers, concerns about the changing city, pride for DC. It ushered the entire CARE Project, which has many many many many parts (stay tuned!). (7/8)

Lastly, all residents advocated for more "third spaces" and community events - block parties, coffee shops, rec centers. Ultimately, we should endeavor for all folks to benefit from even "weak" neighborhood ties ... but social structures are needed to support this goal (6/8)

For caregivers & community leaders, "orientation towards the common good" & "social relationships" were strong facilitators of neighborhood social integration ... people with whom you share civic-minded goals and the people with whom you interact regularly (5/8)

One major findings was just how socially disconnected from neighborhoods youth were ... teens described friends going to school in different Wards or moving from DC. Some parents didn't know neighbors anymore. Turns out that over 70% kids in DC go to school outside their in-boundary school (4/8)

Neighborhood social integration was defined as resident engagement with the physical context - what (e.g., community events), where (e.g., parks), & how (e.g., bus) folks used their neighborhoods. Three themes captures barriers/facilitators to integration: social cohesion, safety, & transience (3/8)

Joelle was interested in barriers & facilitators to neighborhood social integration, and whether those factors differed across social role, race-ethnicity, and housing tenure. We wanted to understand this process deeply for DC - the original "chocolate city", rich w/ culture, history, & change (2/8)

Omg Dana - 7 rounds?!?!
