I teach methods in psych. How do I gently ask my students "is this what a results section looks like in any of the papers you've read?" (or in the examples or the how-to videos I posted?) I'm not being snarky. How do I tell them - model your writing after other good writing!

Is having a FT job, teaching a class online, taking a class online, and writing a book too much to do at one time? Yes. Am I doing it? Not well, lol. Book words since Sept = 0. Will I do it again next term? Also yes. Tell me about all you're doing! :)

Does anyone by chance have a reference for the process of theory testing and development? Maybe @devezer.bsky.social ? I'm trying to argue that a basic tenet of theory testing is that it is incremental (ie isolates one feature to test at a time) #AcademicSky #PsychSciSky

If the idea that this is the best I'll ever feel, pain-wise, makes me cry, please convince me I'm not being dramatic in telling my doctor I don't think I'm better. Feeling a bit hopeless and guilty and ashamed and scared. #disabilitysky
