@rayyantutunji.bsky.social showing at #SAA2025 that wearable data (EPA) is not enough to predict mental well-being (R2 = 0.01). My bet is more on timing (triggering) surveys compared to leaving out surveys.

Impressed by the commitment to correct validation (not even touching test set until later)!

Wow! Just woke up to a lot of new followers, and not sure why, but feels like a good time to reintroduce myself. I'm a stress researcher with an interest in real-life dynamics and combining different methods (EMA, MRI, wearables)... (1/n)

Our new preprint shows how to estimate internal consistency reliability in EMA data:

➡️n~1150, 3 months data, 4 scales
➡️6 nomothetic & idiographic methods
➡️2 timescales (4/day & 1/week)
➡️2 languages (ENG vs NL)
➡️separation of between & within person reliability.

I used to think pigeons were the worst urban birds, until I moved to a coastal city and discovered seagulls. Society's true menace.

New preprint by @bsiepe.bsky.social & our WARN-D lab.

We collected information on sleep, tiredness & stress with both EMA and sensor data, and try to find out to which degree these are associated contemporaneously in a large dataset (n~800) with many timepoints (t~360).

Paper alert: across 10k participants & 36 versions of the emotional dot probe task, task *reliability* cannot be distinguished from 0 (!).

Raises very serious questions about the literature (how did so many find positive relations between this task and other variables).

Haven't posted here yet since joining, so here it goes: I am a psychologist/cognitive neuroscientist with a focus on developing predictive models and connecting lab and real-life assessments. An example is my first PhD Paper, where we use lab-based arousal measures for real-life stress detection 1/n
