@paarisasharif Agreed! I think a lot of us like to think we don't do this, but I think it's impossible to be on insta and NOT compare yourself and/or your relationship with others. Great idea for a next study! :)

@Jill73620650 Thank you for taking the time to provide these great answers!

@lauren_hytman I agree- mindfulness can be difficult to actualize and may not be immediately beneficial. I teach positive psych and I'm always working on mindfulness. Fascinating to know that the written induction is more effective! I will look for that research so I can teach it in class :)

@lauren_hytman Thank you so much for such a comprehensive answer to my question!

@AadhiyaVasudeva @EinsteinLabUofT Thank you! It's interesting to know that narratives were focused more on these more positive aspects of the experience- taking control and finding a new normal.

[William Ryan @ProfessorWRyan]

@RubyyMann Yes! These are excellent answers. I absolutely agree, as much as patients prioritize personality, bedside manner, etc. technical skills are of course essential.

@Sofia199730 Interesting, but this doesn't really answer my question about the reasoning for the original gender-based hypothesis (although your study did not support this). What is it about ADHD specifically that leads you and/or other researchers to theorize differences?

[William Ryan @ProfessorWRyan]

@Bryanna506 Interesting research question! Why do you think personality characteristics like conscientiousness (in your study) and agreeableness (from your background) are predictors of men seeking help, but not women?

@Jill73620650 Really interesting research question! Enjoyed reading your poster.

@lauren_hytman Hi Lauren! Great poster! I'm interested to know your thoughts on why common humanity and self-kindness, but not mindfulness were successfully induced. Do you think a different type (e.g., guided audio) of self-compassion manipulation would have a different pattern of effects?

@paarisasharif Hi Parisa! Beautiful poster and fascinating research!

[William Ryan @ProfessorWRyan]

@andrewtk_ What do you think drives differences in ‘time till report’? Do you think it has to do with the nature of online vs. in-person interactions or is it the variation in the type of offence that occurs in each domain (e.g., intercourse vs. sending nudes) that impacts reporting?

[William Ryan @ProfessorWRyan]

@andrewtk_ Such an interesting and important research question!

[William Ryan @ProfessorWRyan]

@RubyyMann @MacSurgEd Beautiful poster! Why do you think being part of a group led participants to put more weight on clinical skills compared to multi-source feedback? Is there any evidence that one type of information predicts job performance better than the others? #aoputc2020
