Data availability statements are an interesting thing. Commercial publishers have built these into their manuscript submission systems as drop-down menu options. So what happens next?

My article "Data is not available upon request" was published in Meta-Psychology. Very happy to see this out!

One of the most powerful skills you get with more and more experience is just understanding what you can ignore lol.

It’s made reading stats papers much easier 😂

Also, is this like a “phase” that I’m going through? The whole special issue thing. Is it like a mid career thing? Or just me? Curious!

Amanda Kay Montoya @akmontoya.bsky.social · 4d

Today is a happy day! Submitted a paper to a special issue, and got an invitation to submit to a different special issue! Preprint of the submitted paper coming soon :-)

There a Josephy and Vanderweele paper that talks about this in the context of mediation in two time point designs. There is an additional set of assumptions required but they’re not too wild if I remember correctly
