Cow Tools!
We have lived alongside cows for nearly 10,000 years.
We breed them and exploit them
It is now, only now, that we have discovered THEY CAN USE TOOLS
Here I describe our study
(paper) www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... in @currentbiology.bsky.social
with @auersperga.bsky.social
Running longitudinal projects with a team of people can quickly lead to confusing folder structures and file names.
Creating a style guide that guides how folders are organized and files are named, can help ensure that files are easier to find and interpret.

This is great to hear! Thank you for all the work you do to make these fantastic datasets as accessible as possible!
(1/6) We have a new paper out in #eNeuro!
How does the brain’s reward processing change across social contexts? We mapped brain activity (cFos) & found that social context reshapes how reward circuits are coordinated🐭🏆

Curious to see whether you made any headway with this? Or if you’ve managed to get the sandbox option to work?
Curious if anyone has gotten a DUC for the sandbox approved by your university’s signing officials? We could definitely use some guidance :)
This plot shows the number of users in the Study 1 sample that self-described as 'addicted' to Instagram versus those who were 'at risk' of clinical addiction. The ratios for the addiction symptom scale are 9:371 and for the perceived addiction 69: 311, suggesting a much greater proportion of users self-perceive as addicted than are actually addicted to Instagram
Excited to see these studies (finally) published in Scientific Reports! 🚨
S1: More social media users perceived themselves as addicted than met clinical addiction criteria.
S2: Increasing perceived addiction hurt perceived control over use and increased self-blame for overuse.

¡Felicidades!! ¡Muy merecido!
Además, está escrito originalmente en español, lo que lo hace particularmente útil y relevante para quienes hablamos este idioma.
Plantea además, de forma matizada y cuidadosa, cómo se puede implementar esta evidencia en la toma de decisiones y política pública.
Es un resumen de la evidencia científica sobre este tema (a la fecha) y plantea de forma muy balanceada lo que sabemos y lo que queda por entender.
Tuve el gusto de ser consultada en la elaboración de el informe sobre Redes Sociale y Menores de la Oficina de Ciencia y Tecnología del Congreso de los Diputados (de España).

🧠I am excited to announce that our manuscript introducing a new data resource – PennLEAD (Penn Longitudinal Executive functioning in Adolescent Development) – is now available on bioRxiv. Below are some details highlighting our data resource🧵funded by NIMH R01MH113550

Despite concerns that online friendships might undermine offline relationships, our findings suggest otherwise. Not only were best online-only friendships associated with fewer negative qualities, they did not appear to discourage in-person friendships. (5/5)
Boys reported more conflict in both in-person and online friendships, while girls reported stronger closeness with in-person friends. Older adolescents reported greater closeness with their online-only friends than younger adolescents. (4/5)
Best in-person friendships involved both greater closeness and greater discord compared to best online-only friendships. Online friendships were not necessarily lower quality—they involved unique patterns of closeness and conflict. (3/5)
More than 1/3 of Latin American youth in our study reported having at least one online-only friend. Yet youth still reported 2x as many in-person friends on average. These results suggest online friendships complement, rather than replace, in-person connections. (2/5)
I am very excited to share the newest preprint from our lab - led by the wonderful Kimberly Nielsen Molaib. Our new preprint examines the prevalence and quality of in-person and online-only friendships among 6,000+ youth from Peru, Bolivia, and Uruguay. (1/5)

Congratulations! As an alum of the Department this is especially exciting to hear!
I will take students interested in adolescent development and intensive longitudinal data. Something we do: parenting, impulsivity, psychopathology, emotion regulation, peer relationships, modeling stats, all in daily contexts. Multi-timescale data main foci. Very affordable place to live. Plz apply
