We already know that lagged effects in CLPMs are likely to be upwardly biased, but just how easy is it to find significant effects? Way too easy. I tested CLPMS in 100 randomly selected pairs of correlated variables and found significant effects in 98 of them. New preprint: osf.io/preprints/ps...

If you're looking for a good quarto extension to do APA-style documents, this one does it! Seems to have everything papaja had for Rmarkdown and more. Really useful and easy to implement (including great export to docx): wjschne.github.io/apaquarto/

The problems w/ two-wave cross-lagged models are becoming widely known. Some proposed a "triangulation method" (2nd screenshot) to identify spurious effects in such designs We show that this test doesn't work in plausible situations. It shouldn't be used. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
Abstract: The cross-lagged panel model (CLPM) is an analytic technique used to examine the reciprocal causal effects of two or more variables assessed on two or more occasions. Although widely used, the CLPM has been criticized for relying on implausible assumptions, the violation of which can often lead to biased estimates of causal effects. Recently, a triangulation method has been proposed to identify spurious effects in simple CLPM analyses
(e.g., Sorjonen & Melin, 2024b). We use simulations and a discussion of the formulas underlying regression coefficients to show that this method does not provide a valid indicator of spuriousness. This method identifies true causal effects as spurious in realistic situations and should not be used to diagnose whether a causal effect estimated from the CLPM is spurious or not. There are clear reasons to doubt causal estimates from the CLPM, but the results of the triangulation method do not add information about whether such estimates are spurious.

Research suggested a response styles bias in people's repeated self-reports (e.g. daily diary studies, EMA). We tested this and found evidence against a broad bias. Open access: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... with @richlucas.bsky.social, Elise Kalokerinos, Noelle Rensing, and Iris Schneider.

This was a fun paper for a few reasons. First, like most of the projects involving replication or reanalysis, this arose out of a lab meeting with our undergrad research assistants. They were interested in the topic, we discussed strengths and weaknesses. We reanalyzed and attempted to replicate

Today, my friend and colleague Debby Kashy passed away. We shared an office suite for almost twenty years, so I saw her almost every day since the beginning of my career. She will be missed. /1

With the start of the semester, it's a good time for a reminder that it's perfectly fine (and maybe even better) to say "syllabuses" instead of "syllabi"

If you're at all skeptical that the person in this role can have an impact, I can tell you as an APA editor that many of the policies that previous chairs have advocated for have been implemented. Please apply!

Kind of fun to see how coverage of the streets of my hometown has expanded during my runs over the years. Plotted in #rstats of course
