I really agree with this. People sometimes state research questions about change and then use latent growth or time-varying effects interchangeably, despite those techniques estimating fundamentally different quantities.

It's amazing people will claim "Canada and the USA have the same culture" and then on something as fundamental as "do you trust your fellow citizens to be good" we are further apart than any other two countries
I donβt agree these should ever be required. Voluntary statements, probably mostly good. But I have a right to personal privacy when Iβm writing about my research.

Yep.
This was wild. The journal seemed surprised that everyone didnβt know these were fictional accounts. Why would we think theyβre fictional accounts?!?

Hannah Ritchie has built a fun little tool where you can compare energy usage of various products and activities.

I'm disappointed and saddened tonight by the Algonquin College Board of Governors' decision to cut 30 critically important programs. Programs that led to employment, that built our community, that made our economy stronger. This goes way beyond Mr. Ford's "basket weaving" quip.
Later school start times are the one extremely evidence-based change thatβs likely to dramatically improve kidsβ and teensβ well-being but because itβs so inconvenient for adults itβs quickly dismissed
Also if your primary concern about the permanent time change is kids walking to school in the dark I present to you years of research showing school should start later in the day

I loved this show. Desperate for a second season
Actually, Doug Ford, basketβweaving is innovative and inβdemand
This is consistent with earlier psychometric work that suggests 5-7 is the best response scale options, but good to see that the finding holds up in contemporary research. Also, good to see that labeling scales whether anchored or not has little impact on findings. academic.oup.com/ijpor/articl...

"We have been here before, and once knew better. In 2003, Canada refused to join the American invasion of Iraq because there was no Security Council resolution, and the case for war rested on preventing a hypothetical future WMD threat. Today...we are embracing the very doctrine we used to reject."
