New paper! Despite qualitative researchers claiming that generalizability is not a goal, their published work does indeed contain generalizable claims. We document this and provide recommendations for how all researchers can better calibrate their generalizability claims. doi.org/10.1177/2515...

We did a qual study on betrayal and frustrating experiences that service members experienced on active duty. We were surprised how often complaints about other service members hair/uniform violations came up. Not sure if there is any literature on this, but an interesting data point.

This essay by Gloria Steinem was one of the most powerful things I read/assigned as a psychologist. It helped me fully appreciate the latent sexism that exists in our field and totally changed the way I thought about many topics. An absolute classic. www.geocities.ws/fourthwave_c...

I made a mistake. And because of that mistake, I no longer have confidence that results that I reported in several research papers are an accurate reflection of replication rates. 1/

This got me thinking. There should be 'Short Story Clubs' like book clubs but for short stories. They could meet weekly if you wanted given the length of the pieces. You could go thematically or work your way through an anthology, etc. Does this exist?

The bad news is that I had to call 911 (wasn't a heartattack!), but the good news is that I got to have a nice chat with one paramedic about Jung's collective unconscious and the other one complimented our house. So, better than my average Wednesday!

RFK Jr. asked the National Institute of Health to dedicate $5 billion (!) to finding a link between vaccines and autism. "That would have dedicated more than a tenth of the NIH’s annual budget to investigating a hypothesis already refuted by scientists worldwide."

Exciting day. My set-theoretic reconceptualization of the DSM (w/ MDD, GAD, and PTSD as empirical examples) is out today in JPCS, along with four invited commentaries and my response. I'm biased, but I recommend all six papers. I was really jazzed by all four commentaries. 1/25

This reminds me of a friend of mine who started using fake words around his wife with some regularity. Inevitably, she used one of them in their regular Scrabble games and he challenged it for being a fake word. Reader, he long conned her for Scrabble wins.

I see we are doing GRE as an equity issue again. Great, let's talk equity. Which students can afford this? Which students can afford to work in a lab for free? Which student have summers for stats classes and research institutes? Now, which students would be overlooked but for the GRE?
