Autism's causes are well-established. An increase in cases is due to a shifting definition rather than a surge in incidence. psychologytoday.com/us/blog/…

The American Psychological Association is deeply concerned about the Administration’s recent announcement on #autism.
Promoting unsupported scientific theories risks fueling stigma, undermines public trust and distracts from real scientific progress.

There are two common misconceptions in psychology that go hand in hand: 1) that you need loads of (usually repetitive) items to measure the same construct and 2) that you cannot use direct language when asking about that construct. We argue both of them below 🙂↕️👇
Delighted to see this out! Led by the brilliant @PaddyCM, it opens up a whole new debate around how we best measure concepts. Are we best using multiple items to try and tap into constructs, or by being direct with our wording? Read on to find out 👇🏻
New preprint! We're all wrong about who's lonely – and about what loneliness is.
By failing to just be direct when we ask people if they're lonely, we've been worried about the wrong people🧵🧵🧵

Biggest and most comprehensive GWAS of the Big Five personality traits just dropped! Thrilled to be part of this 🔥🙏
The ReGPC presents comprehensive GWAS of the Big Five personality in N=611K-1.14M and within-family GWAS in N=51K. In contrast to many other social/behav traits, pop GWAS of personality almost entirely reflect direct genetic effects. doi.org/10.1101/2025.05.16.6…
Thrilled to say that I'll be starting as a Lecturer in Psychology at @UoCPsych on May 23rd! I can't wait to get started with the staff and students!
