We're thrilled to support Michelle Chang, one of our 2025 COGDOP Graduate Student Scholarship recipients!👏 Michelle’s research explores how loss impacts aging for older adults of color in LA. Her work aims to uncover ways to support communities after bereavement and promote healthier aging. 🌟

New preprint alert! (1/5)🌟
I’m thrilled to share the preprint of my first first-authored PhD paper! We test whether shared reinforcement functions help explain why adolescents who engage in one self-destructive behavior often engage in others.

Presenting on different roles + steps in the publication process at journals- realizing I don't actually understand how regular submissions are grouped into issues + the extent that this is thematic vs. first-in is first-out.
Imagine this varies by journal- any pointers to include in my slides?

My impression is that Latent Class Growth Analysis is usually not that informative (or maybe I just don’t get what information we’re learning). Does anyone know a good critical paper on this? #stats #psyscisky

In our rejoinder, we argue 1) Dark terminology isn't used responsibly as BL et al. claim, 2) the term can be replaced with a more sensible and scientific one, 3) data support our position (Stanton et al., 2025), and 4) popularity ≠ importance. @davidchester.bsky.social @drlynam.bsky.social

In light of record submission rates and a large volume of AI-generated slop, SocArXiv recently implemented a policy requiring ORCIDs linked in the OSF profile of submitting authors, and narrowing our focus to social science subjects. Today we are taking two more steps:

Honestly this came as a bit of a surprise in my 1st RR experience. Figured the Stage 1 was necessary for evaluators to compare the published work to (a la pre-reg), so we've just uploaded the Stage 1 to OSF and referenced in the Stage 2 manus
From my experience, journals generally don't publish stage 1 of a Registered Report after in principle acceptance. But here, it seems Wiley does this? authorservices.wiley.com/author-resou... Can anyone point to examples for journals publishing stage 1 and then updating at stage 2, Wiley or other?
