My second dissertation study is out now in JAFD! ✅ 😬 In this paper, I use two different statistical approaches for modeling impulsivity and its relations to suicide ideation and internalizing/ externalizing symptoms among Native American youth in the ABCD Study.

Our paper on the efficacy of direct and indirect psychotherapy for suicidal ideation and suicide attempts in @JAMAPsych. Enormous effort led by @WvBallegooijen. This is a very important paper that should and will change clinical practice.

Important new study from some of our @CRISPatBrown colleagues, revealing that 20% of people in the US who died by suicide in one year had spent at least one night in jail in the year prior - bringing attention to community reentry as a critical moment for #SuicidePrevention.

Up to 41% of mental disorders are attributable to childhood maltreatment and over 1.8 million cases could be prevented if this maltreatment was eliminated. 🧵1/10

Good morning #AAS24! Excited to present some recent results from our work using natural language processing to identify linguistic features related to genuine concern in crisis conversations at 12:45 today.

Was a pleasure speaking with @KellyServick about the science of loneliness for @ScienceMagazine

All of these 'where they raised me' posts have sent me back to Anna Schuleit's 'Bloom' installation when the old Mass Mental Health Center closed. A piece of art so moving I still can't express much about it. Miss that place.

Emphasizing once again that social relationships and interpersonal connection are at the core of mental health, especially for young people. Kudos to my teammate @LiliTorok for leading this work; more here: crisistextline.org/united-in-empa… (3/3)

Surging anxiety is often discussed in relation to macro-level events: geopolitics, climate change. These do come up, but what we found when we peered inside the anxiety/stress category was stuff much closer to home: once again, it's relationships, much of the way down... (2/3)

Anxiety/stress was the #1 conversation topic in Crisis Text Line conversations last year, outpacing even relationships (#1 in 2022). For the first time, we were able to use natural language processing (NLP) to examine what's going on inside that anxiety/stress bucket... 1/3

Does anyone know of & would recommend a form designed at gathering the psychological effects of hate speech/radical content annotations on annotators?

@mmitchell_ai Maybe see if this moral injury and distress scale could be a fit for what you need? onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/jt…

@kaymtye Defenses were completely closed in my department: so, 0. (pre-pandemic).

Me (dumbfounded) : i dont understand how thats possible Is that a pandemic generation thing? How many defenses had you seen in person by your PhD Thesis Defense? (And are you a student of the pandemic era?)

Just talking to one of my students as we scheduled their defense date. Me: how many thesis defenses have you been to? Them: zero? Me:

@KayleeNull @NSF @ADRC_UCLA @DiegoPizzagalli @maqroll62 @SaraMasland Congratulations! So well deserved!

Overwhelmingly shocked and honored to have received the @NSF GRFP! I am immensely grateful to my mentors (@ADRC_UCLA, @DiegoPizzagalli, @maqroll62 , @SaraMasland) for their guidance and to @NSF for supporting me and my research on cumulative stress and neural reward processes 🎉

We're saddened that alum and emeritus professor Auke Tellegen passed away on 3/11. A psychology pioneer whose contributions have left an indelible mark. From work on personality assessment to mentorship and kindness, Auke's legacy will inspire generations.buff.ly/3vEhtXz

I will be recruiting a post-doc at the @PCfN__ to work in neuroaesthetics/creativity. Domain knowledge, quantitative, coding skills, and experience w neuroscience methods (esp fMRI) desirable. Please RT (or RX?).

📢 I am so excited to announce that The UPLIFT THE WEB Challenge is open for submissions, NOW until May 1, 2024! This is a massive team science project to identify the most effective brief (< 10 minute) online interventions for depression See sites.northwestern.edu/10minutechalle… for info
