🥳thrilled that our dockerHDDM tutorial paper, after many years's work was published in my dream journal AMPPS of @psychscience.bsky.social 🤩 👇 doi.org/10.1177/2515.... The image's been downloaded 10K+⏬ docker Hub Such a pleasure to work w/ Wanke, Ru Yuan, Haiyang & member of HDDM/HSSM team!

1/3 Tutorial on exploring ecological momentary assessment data is online at AMPPS, with: - Accessible ways to visualize data for better understanding - Models to get some first insights - Further reading boxes for more advanced topics - Reproducible pipeline you can run over your own data

Check out this important methodological validation study of SEM fit indices for (confirmatory) network modeling. Led by @xinkaidu.bsky.social!

Preprint on using SEM fit indices & conventional cutoffs in confirmatory network analysis updated! Now with a Shiny app for results display. PsyArXiv: osf.io/preprints/ps... RG: www.researchgate.net/publication/... Shiny app: github.com/xinkaidupsy/... See 🧵 for the summary of results

Looking for a longitudinal (ideally intensive) dataset where missing data is expected to be problematic, i.e. MNAR, anyone have pointers to good examples?

link 📈🤖 Penalized Quasi-likelihood for High-dimensional Longitudinal Data via Within-cluster Resampling (Ma, Wang, Jiang) The generalized estimating equation (GEE) method is a popular tool for longitudinal data analysis. However, GEE produces biased estimates when the outcome of interest is assoc

I was today years old when I found this gem of a web app to explore 2500+ color palettes for R: r-graph-gallery.com/color-palett...

A real pleasure to run two workshops on time series and forecasting to wrap up #ESAus2024. Great to see so many wonderful scientists doing temporal ecology in Australia. Hopefully my {mvgam} software can help with some of this: youtube.com/playlist?lis...

🛩️ On my way to #NeurIPS2024 and excited to chat about (ML applications of) linear algebra, differentiable programming, and probabilistic numerics! Feel free to DM if you’d like to meet up, hang out, and/or discuss any of these topics 😊 (Where to find me & paper info? -> Thread)

Denver gave people experiencing homelessness $1k/month. A year later, nearly half had housing. They also had fewer ER visits, nights spent in a hospital, and jail stays. The report estimates that this reduction in public service use SAVED the city $589k. www.businessinsider.com/denver-basic...

Working on some network stuff. It's oddly satisfying going from this network spaghetti to something a bit more organized

Our long didactic paper on #network analysis, written with many of the amazing scientists that work in the field is finally out in IJMPR and open access ! It was a long and collaborative effort two years in the making, but, it was worth it! Please repost onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

The Exploratory Graph Model is now LIVE! TL;DR: The paper introduces the Exploratory Graph Model (EGM), a new mathematical framework for analyzing psychological measurements using networks instead of traditional latent variable models 1/n osf.io/preprints/ps...

This article gives a phenomenal overview of the history and evolution of best practices in measurement invariance and differential item functioning -- I can't remember the last time I learned so much reading a single paper, highly recommended! www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Starter packs are genius, but I was surprised there wasn't a list of them for people to find. So I built it: blueskydirectory.com/starter-pack... The website monitors the packs being shared and adds the ones it finds to the database. Missed your stater pack? Message me and I'll get it added.

In clinical research, you will often receive feedback on study design, stats, and/or data analysis from an editor or reviewer that is simply wrong. Here is a list of common "statistical myths" and references you can use to push back. discourse.datamethods.org/t/reference-...

I created a starter pack of researchers in network psychometrics. Pretty sure there is more so feel free to message below if want to be added! go.bsky.app/8ccFL3W

1/2 Our new preprint shows how to estimate internal consistency reliability in EMA data: ➡️n~1150, 3 months data, 4 scales ➡️6 nomothetic & idiographic methods ➡️2 timescales (4/day & 1/week) ➡️2 languages (ENG vs NL) ➡️separation of between & within person reliability. #psychscisky #stats

Some news: I've just open-sourced the draft of a book I'm working on about how #rstats tidymodels users can make their code run faster without sacrificing predictive performance! www.simonpcouch.com/blog/2024-10...

I made an attempt at a bsky psychometrics starter pack with people who work on or largely with psychometric tools! Please reskeet and (selfl!)nominate to help me fill my many and varied blind spots and make this a useful and balanced resource #rstats #psychometrics go.bsky.app/6oGLp7D
