    We worked hard on this review paper on computational assessment of expressive behavior in clinical psychology and psychiatry. It is open access, so check it out for free:

    My advice for early career researchers trying to figure out which academic areas to specialize in is to find a journal that you could pick up any issue of and find at least 50% of the papers that you want to read. This was a big motivator for me pivoting to quant methods.

    RT @j_daiil: It was exciting to attend #TIPS2024. @jeffreymgirard and I gave a symposium talk. We used DSEM to examine dynamic relationship between transdiagnostic symptom factors and speaking rate. If you are interested, please check out the slide

    RT @aidangcw: REMINDER...this Monday, December 2nd, get 50% off any workshop on using code CYBER24 You can learn at your own pace and re-watch as much as you want, because access and materials don't expire! Build your skills this winter!
    Aidan Wright @aidangcw
    Hey folks, is doing its first ever CYBER MONDAY SALE!! For 24hrs on December 2nd, use the code CYBER24 for 50% off all recorded workshops. Treat yourself. Use the term break to brush up on methods! Please share and retweet! 🙏

    Here is a third blog post that uses Docker to dramatically simply the setup of CUDA and WSL2.
    Jeffrey Girard @jeffreymgirard
    🗞️🚨 Just posted two free tutorials on doing local #AI-based transcription of audio recordings from R (#rstats) using the audio.whisper package. Part 1 covers the basics and Part 2 shows how to achieve enormous efficiency gains using CUDA and WSL2.

    RT @AmandaKMontoya: I am accepting PhD applicants for Fall 2025. I am particularly interested in students interested in meta-science (with a focus on registered reports) and quantitative methods. Each person can have a unique blend of each!

    "Computational analysis and modeling of transdiagnostic psychiatric speech samples." Co-organized by myself and Einat Liebenthal. Great presentations will be made by Einat Liebenthal (McLean), @j_daiil (KU), @danielmlow (Harvard), and @BilgramiZarina (Emory); I will discuss.
