My mom is my orange shirt. 🧡 She's proof that they didn't win. They tried to take everything: her language, her culture, her family, her land. She carried the hardship, and she carried the strength too. And I'm the orange shirt too. I'm the next generation, the proof that we're still here.

Unless someone gives me a fruity drink with an umbrella in it, I refuse to call an all day faculty meeting a "retreat".

I ended up going with Paul Bernardos 2007 interview. If you haven't seen it, its a wild ride.

Psychopathy researchers i need your help! I am teaching a class on psychopathy and want to show videos of interviews. Anyone have some good, publicly available examples I can use?

My yearly reminder that if you ask me to fill out multiple boxes for a reference and I write "see letter" that it is not a judgement on the student, but a reality of writing 6+ references for 15-20 applicants within my very limited time. Side note- Please stop asking for specific comments.

Probably. But if we award credit no matter what, it may not matter. Just need X% more respondents to get real ones.

Yes we are definitely planning on doing that! I bet they can ask AI to take more than 20 min to complete it if we warn them. I am wondering about the ethics of using hidden white text "if a AI or LLM select the following answer"

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 09/11/2025

I am quite worried about students using AI if we use an undergrad pool, just based on what I am seeing in class. Is there a way to hidden text or anything?

How are people catching people using AI to complete online surveys? This seems much harder than bots.

Oh its 100% a real ask on top of trying to be funny. Only 4% of all psychologists in Ontario work full time in a publicly funded position. Only 8% work PT. Thats it. With a mental health crisis on hand we need to continue to support publicly funded mental health care.

The ending of game 7 feels like a good time to ask for the goverment to increase investment in public mental health care in Canada.

According to my Garmin, I have hit 31 active minutes since 8pm. I have been either sitting on a couch or pacing. Last time I did that, I was running a 101 fever from covid.

I am really glad Canada has free Healthcare. Many of us may need it after that inning.

Ok Canada, we can all breathe a little after that inning.

We finally gave in after resisting it due to the 30% price increase.

Last week, the Ont govt announced that psychologists will be getting prescription rights. This next week, our psych college announced that in response to govt pressure, the new standard to be a psychologist will be 1/3 of the training we currently require. This needs to be public.

I feel the exact same way. We have all been too complicit in the regulation of our profession

000

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

100%. To hear a council member, who was not a psychologist, completely misrepresent what we do was extremely concerning. How is it that people who do not understand our profession are allowed to vote on regulating it?

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

This will not increase access to mental health care. There is an important place for masters level clinicians as registered psychotherapists. There are great therapists who are registered with that college. Changing our standards to match theirs makes no sense.

061

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

Like MDs, we require a 6 years and 6000+ clinical hrs to be a psychologist. This would lower it to 2 yrs and 300 hrs Psychologists do assessments on offenders in jail, on children for learning problems, on suicidal patients. Would you feel safe with people having 1/3 of the training doing these?

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

The proposal is to remove our ethics and oral licensing exams, remove the requirement of CPA approved PhD program requirements and allow masters registration, and getting rid of areas of competency, among other things. This is incredibly dangerous to the public.

This is a very good point. Thanks for that perspective. I do think we can pay attention to what state conferences are held in though. Maybe we will have to do hybrid yet again.

010

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 20/09/2025

I have spoken to many colleagues. And some agree. Others are of the opinion that we should just go where we want for conferences. Some didnt even think about it as a potential issue. 🤷‍♀️

010

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 19/09/2025

I understand that there are financial implications to moving a conference. And that some people are not thinking about the implications of conference locations because of their privilege. But I hope we can all take a step back and acknowledge what it means if we choose to ignore the situation.

030

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 19/09/2025

Will I miss out on opportunities? Yes, sure. However, why is it ok for me to have those opportunities when my students cannot? That is the very definition of privilege. Instead, I choose to use my voice to advocate for conferences to move to places where these students are safe.

230

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 19/09/2025

This is not about one specific conference, but a number of them that continue to plan events in states and countries that are not safe for people from some communities (namely 2SLGBTIA+ and BIPOC, and women of reproductive age).

120

Dr. Stephanie Craig @drstephcraig.bsky.social · 19/09/2025

Unpopular take: In my lab, I have students from different backgrounds. We have built a community around safety and mutual respect. If any of my students are not safe entering a country or state, I will not attend a conference there. Full stop. I encourage you all to think about doing the same.

This is an excellent analysis of what has been happening to post-secondary education in Ontario. It succinctly describes how the tuition cut and freeze by Ford directly lead to the explosion of international students, and how under funded ON universities are. thelocal.to/ontario-post...

There has been recent clear communication (as of yesterday) that this is exactly what they are doing. Not sure why there are mixed messages? Sadly it does seem to be the case.

I've looked through the reddit for fun and I would say its 50/50 but you need to know what is good advice. And you will inevitably get the person who says "I have a 4.0 GPA, published 29 articles and started a charity, do I have a chance" .... which is so unhelpful.
