Looking for symposia on language equity/cultural competence in mental health. My 2nd-year PhD student, Temma Schaechter, will present qualitative work on Yiddish-speaking providers & multilingual care.

1/ I often like Mad in America but I fear this paper is being misrepresented. There have been previous studies on this issue that find that patients prefer therapist skill teaching over other things (e.g., patient leading). In these data, skill acquisition is preferred by a majority (see below).
Working alongside wonderful, brilliant doctoral students is truly uplifting and inspiring. Here is Elyse, presenting on our work on increasing the behavioral health workforce.
So thankful for you, Elyse!
Stay tuned for a preprint of the manuscript coming soon!
This is about the fifth major university who announced reductions in PhD admissions this week in response to federal research cuts.
Absolutely awful for students who are trying to get into grad school right now.
I am absolutely thrilled to share that Marsha, my first PhD advicee, has matched at her top-choice internship site the CMHC Adult Community Mental Health Outpatient and Inpatient program at Yale University School of Medicine. So so proud!
Dear academics
We could dramatically reduce our administrative workload if we all just agreed not to ask for reference letters until we made our list of finalists.
This is massive collective action problem has already been solved by…

…every other industry on earth.
I don't understand how you can read and understand an evolving literature without keeping up with methodological developments.
What are we supposed to do, just read discussion sections and take people's word for it?
Overparenting is on the rise and hurts children’s motivation starting in early childhood. How can we help parents step back? Our new paper in Child Dev shows that pointing out learning opportunities reduces overparenting.

"Unfortunately, clinical psychology and psychiatry have devoted most of their resources to studying the diagnostic labels that summarize the complex mental health states of people, rather than how biopsychosocial processes give rise to mental health problems."

Pew’s latest report on public trust in scientists is a must-read: Public Trust in Scientists and Views on Their Role in Policymaking. Trust is strong, but transparency and inclusivity are key to keeping it. 🧪🧵

Dartmoor's wooded rivers take on an otherworldly quality at this time of year.
Inky mirrors to a newly revealed sky. Granite banks adorned with fallen leaves, others suspended in the current like copper coins.
My kids are my superpower and my kryptonite. I am more efficient and aware of the world and my work is more value-driven because of them. I am also more forgetful and unavailable and my work is slower because of them. Also I will always pick them first.

The G.I. Bill, Standardized Testing, and Socioeconomic Origins of the U.S. Educational Elite Over a Century Ran Abramitzky, Jennifer K. Kowalski, Santiago Pérez, and Joseph Price NBER Working Paper No. 33164 November 2024 JEL No. 123, 124, N32 ABSTRACT We compile, transcribe, and standardize historical records for 2.5 million students at 65 elite (private and public) U.S. colleges. By combining these data with more recent survey and administrative data, we assemble the largest dataset on the socioeconomic backgrounds of students at American colleges spanning the last 100 years. We document the following: First, despite a large increase in the share of lower-income students in the overall college-going population, the representation of these students at elite private or public colleges has remained at similarly low levels throughout the last century. Second, the representation of upper-income students at elite colleges decreased after World War II, but this group has regained its high representation since the 1980s. Third, while there has been no increase in the economic diversity of elite private and public colleges, these colleges have become more racially and geographically diverse. Fourth, two major policy changes in the history of American higher education, namely the G.I. Bill after World War II and the introduction of standardized tests for admissions, had little success in increasing the representation of lower- and middle-income students at elite colleges.
Holy crap this is an astounding piece of historical research
Will post ungated link later today unless someone beats me to it

#implsci, #besci and #healthpsych colleagues - what’s an under-the-radar paper you’ve read this year that made you do a low key ‘oooo-weee, what a great study!’ that we need to know about?

Looking for the #impsci folks here… where are you so we can connect?
Look at all the lives saved by vaccines (right column) — 97, 99, 100% decrease in all these preventable diseases. Yet RFK Jr anti vax nonsense threatens them all.

a field cannot reward truth if it does not or cannot decipher it, so it rewards other things instead. Interestingness. Novelty. Speed. Impact. Fantasy.
not careful AND serious scientist???
