Made it to #IMPS2026 registration at Yonsei University, Korea! So excited to see everyone around this week 😄

I am very happy and honored to share that I successfully defended my PhD thesis, Advancing the Analytical Tools for Understanding Complexity in Behavioral Science, on November 20th and received my doctorate (cum laude) from the University of Groningen @rug.nl ! 🎉

Made it to @saa2025leuven.bsky.social (after 6 hours train from Groningen 🤣) Too late for the registration today but I'm certainly at the right place! See you tomorrow : )

But we do see some interesting patterns in empirical datasets, that may warrant further investigations. For example, for this participant, the relationship from satisfaction to happiness seems to have a quadratic shape: it's stronger when satisfaction is high enough.

That means the network may change according to the variable values -- exactly the same as what you have for moderation analysis. Below is an example from a simulated model, where x1 and x2 represent positive affects and x3 and x4 are negative ones.

Following this, we also developed methods to calculate the potential landscape from empirical data and for Ising networks, so that we can better understand the multistability of mental systems😋 psycnet.apa.org/doi/10.1037/... osf.io/nd8zc

In this work, we developed a method to draw the potential landscape from a formal dynamic model of panic disorder: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Potential landscapes of the panic disorder model. The valleys in the pictures represent the panic phase and the healthy phase of the system.
