I transitioned to Positron last fall to easily work across R and Python scripts in a single project. I’ve loved it for all the reasons in this thread!

If this is helpful for anyone going on the social psych tenure track job market in US, here are my Colby (in 2018) and UIC (2023) statements: osf.io/ef7s3/files/... My lab website has links to other people's materials. Of course the markets were very different back then. www.pbandjlab.com/resources

This manuscript comes from one of the chapters of my dissertation, was the feature of my presentation at #SRCD2025, and was a fun collaboration with @luciamawe.bsky.social ‬, Pooja Tandon, and Kate Foster. Thank you for all your support and involvement in this project! More to come! 9/9

This project also gave me a chance to learn some fun new methods things like wild bootstrapping (great name) and workflows for running many, many models (thank you purrr and broom packages). This is also my first time preregistering and my first time publishing analytic code. Yay #OpenScience. 8/

Our findings also point to the importance of considering the broader socioeconomic and environmental contexts in which youth may be accessing and interacting with nature, parks, and greenspace. Greenspace is only a small piece of the puzzle. 7/

We suggest researchers consider the types of interactions young people have with nature and the frequency and duration of those interactions, rather than just the availability of greenspace. 6/

Our findings gave me lots to think about. Adolescents tend to spend less time outdoors and in nature, making this an especially interesting developmental period to examine nature's role in well-being. How much time are teens actually spending in greenspace? What mechanisms does that imply? 5/

Of the many models we ran, only one replicated across both samples: the proportion of park land in 13-year-old girls' neighborhoods was associated with fewer internalizing problems, after adjusting for income, urbanicity, and neighborhood safety. 4/

Leveraging the large sample of the ABCD study, we used a split-half approach to test (and preregister) our hypotheses in an exploratory and a confirmatory sample. The vast majority of our analyses indicated no relationship between neighborhood greenspace and adolescent mental health. 3/

New preprint! osf.io/preprints/os... We examined age-, gender-, and greenspace-specific associations between neighborhood greenspace and mental health among adolescents in @theabcdstudy.bsky.social 🌱 Counter to many previous studies on the topic, we found very little evidence of an association.

I am #PhDone! I successfully defended my dissertation on Friday, May 30th🎓 Thank you to my incredible advisor, @luciamawe.bsky.social, and the rest of my committee for your support throughout this journey. I'm excited for what's to come!
Carly stands at the front of a classroom with the title slide of her dissertation defense presentation on a large monitor. Her dissertation is titled, "Exposure to and Interaction With Nature in Late Childhood and Adolescence: Cross-sectional and Longitudinal Associations with Psychological Well-being."

I wrote a guest post on The Grading for Growth about my experience implementing alternative grading practices in a #researchmethods course as a graduate student. Check it out! Thanks to @dccmath.bsky.social and @roberttalbert.bsky.social for the opportunity to share this work.

My advisor @luciamawe.bsky.social posted about this the other day! Ive encountered this as well in a study other than the one referenced in her post bsky.app/profile/luci...
