Fascinating. This study identified environmental features associated with obesity rates from satellite images. Here are street views of some of the most important features, per their models.

At #SRP2025?

I'm presenting some findings on antagonism from meta-analyses, large scale text mining, and large language modeling tomorrow at 2:30!

4. With these joint temperament/personality traits, we were then able to establish mean-level change and rank-order stability in traits across an age span that's not been investigated yet.

Bottom line: traits are really stable and change in the direction of maturity.

3. My favorite finding.

Using joint latent growth models that assume analogous temperament/Big 5 traits are indicators of the same factor...

....we found evidence that they are not distinct constructs but are actually just different expressions of the same underlying dimensions.

2. Looking at bivariate associations across all available waves, we see analogous temperament starts predicting adult personality around age 12-14, in line with the idea the transitional time of adolescence is when we start laying the foundation for who we grow up to be.

1. Childhood/adolescent temperament predicts conceptually similar Big 5 traits at age 26.

But also, Effortful Control predicts all Big 5, suggesting self-regulation helps us adapt to the roles of responsibilities of adulthood.

✨✨ New paper out in JPSP! ✨✨

Despite rich theory on links between temperament and personality, they're rarely studied together. This has left major unaddressed questions.

We tackled these questions by looking at how temperament and personality develop together from ages 10-26.

Brief thread...

At APS?

Come to our symposium "Advancing Dimensional Models of Psychopathology: Bridging Psychometric, Behavioral, and Neurodevelopmental Perspectives on the HiTOP Framework"! (Friday at 1)

I'll be presenting working linking HiTOP to *actual behavior* assessed by smartphone sensors.

We’re inviting proposals for a special issue on "Using Large Language Models (LLMs) to Advance the Understanding of Psychopathology” in the Journal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science!

So excited to see what y’all got, this is going to be a banger.

Details below 👇

💫💫💫

Extremely excited about our new pre-print leveraging the strengths of hierarchical dimensional models of psychopathology to identify distinct behavior profiles from smartphone sensor data!

Check out @aidangcw.bsky.social 's awesome thread on our findings!

As someone who constantly reports boring tables of regression results, I'm very inspired by this figure. If you have other recommendations to visualize correlations/regressions, please share!
