@evavivalt An interesting set of findings that monetary transfers reduce hours worked. I do take issue with defining leisure as the opposite of productive time use. From a human development perspective, leisure has many potential benefits, like stress reduction, more parenting, & self-care.

We are happy to release the first results of a RCT of a US program that provided $1,000/month unconditionally for 3 years to 1,000 individuals in the treatment group, with a group of 2,000 people receiving $50/month serving as the control. These are sizable transfers. 1/ 🧵

A brilliant and balanced overview of the teens and social media research, a must read for anyone offering opinions about it. Not to be overlooked: the clear evidence that mental health risks in development are overwhemingly from "offline" sources like childhood adversity.

5) When he was confirmed, Roberts famously claimed that the proper role of the court was to be “an umpire, calling balls and strikes.” But while previous justices toggled between narrow and expansive strike zones, the Roberts court declares winners and losers.

Alito and Thomas have made clear their insurrectionist connections. So why are we debating whether Alito should recuse himself, instead of demanding Roberts dismiss Trump’s immunity appeal so the J6 trial can begin immediately? (It’s called “dismissed as improvidently granted”—when a court recognizes that they never should have taken up a case in the first place.)

Very few pitchers mastered the screwball. Fernando, who I covered as a beat writer. Carl Hubbell, who I interviewed about Fernando. Jim Brewer, who I covered as a kid beat writer in 73/74. Any others come to mind, thinking fans?

No doubt the patriarchy privileges men, greatly. But boys’ uncried tears lead to men repressing their “soft” emotions, then demanding girls and women manage that pain for them. And get angry when they won’t, or can’t. Time to replace the system.

🧵i tweeted this a few months ago and got ✨dragged✨but the real question i was asking is: where do we hear about the pain and inner lives of men? i asked a male friend this question and he replied, "no one wants to hear about men's inner lives." /1

Not the best forum, a complex issue. But: the claim-social media causes the mental health epidemic- lacks sound evidence. An alternative hypothesis: increased stress from many sources (see eg APA surveys) has psychological and physio effects. More research on both is needed.
Schopenhauer's Poodle@ArthursPoodle

@gmiller @keatingd It genuinely baffles me to. I've tried to press a few people on it since even the nature review, for example, was so clearly insufficient to prove her point. All of the alternative factors were just as badly justified, if not worse. Yet nobody seems to mention it.

1. If the causal claim that social media cause anxiety & depression it should account for large variance in longitudinal population studies. It doesn’t. A few percent at most. 2. Trends in climate fear, school shootings, etc are evident. Their link to outcomes merit more research

I haven’t done a systematic review or meta-analysis specifically of possible sex or gender moderation, and haven’t seen one. But overall effects from careful longitudinal studies of population data are small to none, so they wouldn’t have much to work with, I suspect.
Jeff Lees (@leesplez.bsky.social)@Leesplez

Couldn't agree more! And it's not just structural issues beyond phones/social media that are downplayed, it's structural issues *about phones/social media* that are ignored... e.g., Haidt himself cites data on gender effects, why do you think girls have worse experiences online?

Being open to evidence is crucial, especially on causal claims. Could be cumulative or not, and other validity claims need investigation. But Haidt’s assertion is that we have the causal evidence to enact policy. We don’t, as @candice_odgers notes. Much evidence to the contrary.
Robert Kubinec@rmkubinec

I'm also open-minded on this. Part of it is due to limitations in current experimental methods, which are *not* designed to track a small effect that accumulates over time. For example, see the revised conclusion that small amts of alcohol can have long-term health risks. (1/2)

Good points. The social media moral panic is not harmless. Some parents will severely restrict use, denying social connections for kids who have few options. Big picture: it diverts attention from real stressors harming mental health- climate, gun violence, inequality, racism etc
Jeff Lees (@leesplez.bsky.social)@Leesplez

If Haidt's book were titled "phones/social media are bad sometimes" then this would be good evidence, but it's not. He's making grand claims about "rewiring" of kids brains, then large causal claims about societal shifts, then calling for significant government intervention...

As one of the most respected scientists in this field almost says: the book will make a boatload of money praying on parents’ worst fears & none of it is supported by data. We’re distracting the public w/ headlines, and not dealing w/ real causes. nature.com/articles/d4158…

Thank you @candice_odgers for excellent analysis. Folks hope banning a single villain, smartphones, would reverse the adolescent mental health crisis. This ignores the pervasive social stressors at fault: climate, gun violence, racism etc, inequality, and threats to democracy.
