This project also gave me a chance to learn some fun new methods things like wild bootstrapping (great name) and workflows for running many, many models (thank you purrr and broom packages). This is also my first time preregistering and my first time publishing analytic code. Yay #OpenScience. 8/

Our findings also point to the importance of considering the broader socioeconomic and environmental contexts in which youth may be accessing and interacting with nature, parks, and greenspace. Greenspace is only a small piece of the puzzle. 7/

We suggest researchers consider the types of interactions young people have with nature and the frequency and duration of those interactions, rather than just the availability of greenspace. 6/

Our findings gave me lots to think about. Adolescents tend to spend less time outdoors and in nature, making this an especially interesting developmental period to examine nature's role in well-being. How much time are teens actually spending in greenspace? What mechanisms does that imply? 5/

Of the many models we ran, only one replicated across both samples: the proportion of park land in 13-year-old girls' neighborhoods was associated with fewer internalizing problems, after adjusting for income, urbanicity, and neighborhood safety. 4/

Leveraging the large sample of the ABCD study, we used a split-half approach to test (and preregister) our hypotheses in an exploratory and a confirmatory sample.
The vast majority of our analyses indicated no relationship between neighborhood greenspace and adolescent mental health. 3/

My advisor @luciamawe.bsky.social posted about this the other day! Ive encountered this as well in a study other than the one referenced in her post bsky.app/profile/luci...
I honestly should have seen this coming, but if you are running surveys with open ended questions be careful! We got some Chat-GPT crafted answers in a recent survey asking about the pros and cons of phones in schools! We now learned how to block copy-pasting into Qualtrics.

Thanks, @luciamawe.bsky.social! Excited to be a part of the growing conversation here on Bluesky 😊
