Leveraging a large longitudinal study we examine patterns of negative affect b/f and after COVID, comparing differences in trajectories.

Unexpectedly, after COVID we didn't see a normative increase in neg affect, as seen in the infants whose trajectories were captured fully pre-COVID.

We discuss how the growing work using varied time scales to study development can be applied to the temperament literature. In part, temperament is defined as stable because we choose time scales the produce stability. What would happen if we start to wiggle our time parameters a bit?

My daily life.

Good thing I can use my mental powers to raise an X wing out of a swamp.

In addition, a subset of the children were observed in a peer social interaction. There, infants who showed greater negative affect went on to show greater social reticence, *particularly* at the start of the novel interaction.

Jovi has only one question to ask:

Don’t you wish your pupper was hot like me?

The attitude has not abated.

Told Jovi we had to go outside to do her business. I was met with attitude.

I was trying hard to sound smart while taping the APA podcast Speaking of Psychology. It will be a few weeks before I find out if I succeeded.
