Tens of thousands of psychological measures have been created, but 79% are not reused more than twice.

In a new article in NHB lead by @faridanvari.bsky.social and @ruben.the100.ci we quantify this fragmentation in psychology's measures and propose solutions.

NEW: The NIH has begun terminating grants for active projects studying gender identity, DEI, environmental justice, climate change, among other topics.

At least 16 termination letters have already been sent — and hundreds more are coming, people inside NIH tell me.

A esto vienen los “patriotas” 🤦🏼‍♂️
El gobierno de Milei ha decretado que la gente con discapacidad sea clasificada como "idiota", "imbécil" y "débil mental".

Se ha publicado en el Boletín Oficial de la República de Argentina y viola acuerdos internacionales contra la discriminación.

The DOGE firings have nothing to do with “efficiency” or “cutting waste.” They’re a direct push to weaken federal agencies perceived as liberal. This was evident from the start, and now the data confirms it: targeted agencies overwhelmingly those seen as more left-leaning. 🧵⬇️

En comparación con los principales determinantes de la salud mental adolescente (pobreza, desestructuración familiar, marginación, abuso, presión excesiva), el efecto de los smartphones -si existe- es marginal. Errar el tiro roba recursos y atención de las verdaderas causas.
