Clinical psychologist and post-doc at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm. Exploring symptom networks as a transdiagnostic clinical tool to grapple with comorbidity and heterogeneity in adolescent mental health
A new paper I’ve made a humble contribution to exemplifies benefits with SCEDs:
- Get preliminary effects data of an intervention (in this case Psychodrama)
- Let patients define their own outcomes
- Follow the therapeutic process within cases
(Shown are 3 cases out of 15)

1/3 I think this is a nice use case for cross-sectional network analysis: to get a very basic idea of the nomological network of your target construct.
In this case, we look at biopsychosocial risk & resilience factors for postpartum depression in n=57,518 women.

Me and @larsklintwall.bsky.social have been working on an app that will allow participants to interactively build networks of perceived causal relations.
I’ve put together a demo website, that I’m soft-launching while we continue to pilot the app

New blog post! Three reasons why (some) idiographic studies in psych leave me unimpressed: (1) failure to establish that there's meaningful variation, (2) imprecise estimates at the individual level, (3) the usual estimand confusion (is it causal? yes/no/maybe a bit?).
