Very happy that this preprint (I'm 2nd author & taking over for the bluesky-less Vanessa Scholz) is finally out! In a large online sample, we investigated how Pavlovian/motivational biases are associated with psychiatric symptom dimensions (as first defined by Claire Gillan).. osf.io/preprints/ps...

the most embarrassing part of being a “100 tabs open at once” guy is when you inadvertently close them and don’t even notice and there are absolutely no negative consequences

🚨 Clinicians have noted for decades how planning & anxiety are linked. Yet, computational psychiatry thus far failed to show how. Here, I explain that we need to broaden how we model planning to reveal its biases in chronic anxiety. A 🧵 on the framework 1/n authors.elsevier.com/a/1kAJC4sIRv...

I want to draw attention to a special issue that Lila Davachi and I put together to memorialize our friend and colleague Sarah DuBrow.

You know the "🔹AI Overview" you get on Google Search? I discovered today that it's repeating as fact something I made up 7 years ago as a joke. "Kyloren syndrome" is a fictional disease I invented as part of a sting operation to prove that you can publish any nonsense in predatory journals...

It only detects 65% overlap with the preprint... so TurnItIn still clearly has a ways to go 😅

Submitting a paper and it now tells me the % overlap of my paper with other published works... highlighting sentences using same software used for undergrad essays. Does this not just facilitate plagiarism?
