Student protesters were right about segregation in the early '60s, right about Vietnam in the late '60s, right about apartheid in the '80s, right about Iraq in 2003, and right about wealth inequality in 2011. Seems generally bad to side against student movements.

Up next: winning improvements to our work!

Key read for fMRI sci. McLaughlin and team estimated within vs between-person variability in fMRI signals in an intensive longitudinal design (monthly, over 10 mos, in 30 15-17 yo girls) TLDR: low test-retest reliability & moderate internal consistency. https://t.co/Wcfmxk8tAO
