Are you an international early career scholar considering spending time in the Netherlands? We likely have capacity to host a Marie Curie Fellow if you are interested. Our lab (lifespancognitivedynamics.com) works on modeling cognitive change in early or later life, at short and long timescales.

1/8. This week I had a few different conversations with scholars who, in the face of the attacks on science and institutions of learning in the U.S., are wondering what to do. One suggestion I have is: keep doing your work. It matters in and of itself. Why do I say that? A few reasons.

Are mental disorders extreme manifestations of continuous traits or genetically distinct entities? We present Genomic Taxometric Analysis of Continuous and Case-Control data (GTACCC) for evaluating genetic continuity and differentiation of traits across the severity spectrum.

GOOD MORNING BLUESKY!
Very excited about this new paper:

www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2300671120

Key Q: what predicts how much young kids (👶)talk?

How much 🗣 kids heard predicted how much 👶talked, but other factors, e.g. mom’s education, didn’t. #PsychSci #DevPsy 🗣💬

Thinking of SEM as causal inference is really useful, it becomes a readily apparent that paths in a well fitting model are hypotheses rather than results.
