@EileenYXu et al. aimed to fit a prediction model of adolescent major depressive disorder (MDD) developed in Brazil to an American sample of early adolescents with self-reported MDD outcomes after 2yrs.

👪Our results also suggest that family dysfunction could be especially impactful for early adolescents' future mental health. While this isn't new knowledge, strengthening evidence on risk factors can still be useful for future decision-making by clinicians/policymakers...

This... This is the first sentence...

"Do autistic people share the same moral foundations as typical people?"

Idk mate I don't know that "typical" people share the same moral foundations, and ?? Autism isn't monolithic ??

[Eileen @EileenYXu]

Are we really still asking whether autistic people can care about others in the year of our lord 2024?!

Autistics (age 18-65 years) "tend to place a slightly higher endorsement on Fairness, compared to typical people. Importantly, autistic people did not differ in Care scores compared to typical people" https://t.co/OwQuN9lbLn study using the Moral Foundations Questionnaire, free

I’m so pleased to announce that my PhD study is now open for participants! 😁

Invited: Autistic young people between 12-18 years old, currently struggling with sleep (no sleep diagnosis needed), and willing to attend an in-person meeting in Edinburgh

Please share and RT!

This is great and also so so relatable. Everything feels so hard but it sounds like that's a universal experience

[Eileen @EileenYXu]

Excited to get some insight and advice in doing participatory research during a PhD at the community psychology festival

@JaneEMCallaghan Generally I think it's fine if the context isn't specifically placing the focus on SH and scars. I happen to have scars and gave up censoring my body a long time ago in academic settings, my personal rule is just not showing anything unhealed/graphic.

[Eileen @EileenYXu]

@Yu_Lin_Cheng I really REALLY relate to this. Offering solidarity 💛

I don't really know how this whole thing works but also offering friendship, if that's something you would like?

@EK_Neuro @TraumaPhDandMe Love to you Lizzy. I'm sick of so many of us dying while nothing changes.
