Useful albeit unfortunate info for those the psych job market. Stay strong out there

Mark Thornton @markthornton.bsky.social · 5d

We're a month further into the job market - how are things looking? The good news is that the market does seem to have been delayed: ~150 new listings have appeared since my last post. The bad news is that the total is still substantially lower than what it was during the covid dip.

This may be the most important paper ever published about NIH funded research.

What if NIH had been 40% smaller?

Replaying history with less NIH funding shows widespread impacts on drug-linked research

We had the opportunity to chat with @nuglobalnews.bsky.social about our latest meta-analysis examining how well #ML / #AI predicts mental health outcomes.
Some promising advances (as the title suggests), but we must also proceed with caution 👇

Today is a major milestone in this study examining a single subject’s trajectory of healing, ft. @jpeelle.bsky.social and his love of intensive longitudinal everything: MRI, high+low density EEG, fNIRS, EMA, and more

Way to go and good luck today, Jonathan!! 🚀

Many brain imaging “biomarkers” for autism have been proposed. Most aim for balanced accuracy (matching sensivity/specificity) on datasets where cases and controls are split 50/50. 1/🧵

Could destroy US ability to attract global talent, particularly those seeking advanced degrees in STEM. The median time to complete a PhD is 5.7 yrs per NSF.

{truffle} is an R package for teaching users to process data.

Semi-realistic psychological datasets with predetermined effects (via `truffles_` functions) are then hidden in common data processing headaches (via `dirt_` functions) for students to clean and analyze.
