@dj_deets@joshkimbre Follow-up question, what was the scope of care provided during MIH visits? If very limited, then maybe not surprising it doesn't show a benefit.

@focusfronting I read Option (a) as implying that there is a finite set of twelve topics from which the professor could choose. I read Option (b) as meaning the professor might test you on twelve topics chosen from a potentially infinite set.
@IoannisBournaki@jmwooldridge I like that it always gives you an answer. But sometimes that answer is meaningless. Or doesn’t mean what you think it does. There’s a mysteriousness to it, but it’s also very mechanical.
@jt_kerwin Weeks of back and forth, hours and hours of time. For no benefit to anyone, but tremendous costs to the university (easily thousands of dollars in lost time).
@jt_kerwin And every time, IRB demanded slightly different wording in the consent and recruitment docs. Despite using EXACTLY what IRB told me to use in the previous round (i.e., round 2 was based on what finally got approved by IRB in round 1).
Reach out to folks at @Arnold_Ventures if your research has a strong causal design, and/or overlaps with our areas of policy interest. We may be able to provide bridge funding!
