- Reposted by Adam KuczynskiI kept reading EMA studies claiming to test etiological theories of AUD, but I realized they never actually measured how people experience AUD in their daily lives. So we set out to see what we could learn with existing data. 1/19 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

- Reposted by Adam Kuczynski🚨Excited to share a new exploratory measurement paper! There are *many* instruments measuring “helicopter parenting” in young adults, but items on those instruments are all over the place.

- Reposted by Adam KuczynskiNew Stage 2 RR published in Clinical Psych Science: doi.org/10.1177/2167... contrary to what some claim, urgency DOES NOT moderate associations between affect and alcohol/cannabis use in EMA data.

- Reposted by Adam KuczynskiThis is a great paper on scale norming that also presents a really nice discussion of how people come up with their responses to surveys, and how that can change over time. One read of it has me wanting to put it into my assessment syllabus already.

- Reposted by Adam KuczynskiOur new EMA paper shows that girls worry more about school than anything else in their lives. These worries are linked to lower positive affect and predict depressive symptoms.

- Reposted by Adam KuczynskiNew preprint alert🚨 We often rely on 0-10 scales to assess suicide urges in EMA and clinical settings. But we rarely ask a surprisingly important question: What do these numbers mean? In our new paper, we examine what these ratings mean and how consistently people use them. More info ⬇️
