🚨📢 Our new study now out in Psych Med! @CambUP_Psych
We tested if networks can predict depression treatment response with N>40,000+power analysis, controlled for baseline severity & variance, and benchmarked the effect size to simpler metrics 🔽

How predictive are network metrics compared to baseline psychometrics? Not super good. Challenge the presumption that cross sectional networks can be used for treatment prediction
Need to move to an individual level
Here is @ctleeTCD with a super exciting presentation on predicting treatment response using a network approach
3 major points
1. Large scale approach
2. Controlling for confounds
3. Effect contexualisation
My job as a research fellow at one of the world's best universities (a requirement of which is a doctorate) pays less than this and so, on this definition, I am an unskilled worker who wouldn't be allowed into the country. This system is utterly ridiculous..
📢New preprint: Problem gamblers have higher decision and task performance confidence than matched controls, despite lower self-esteem. This isn't fully explained by their elevated Anxiety-Depression or Compulsive Behaviour and Intrusive Thought symptoms.

Vagal signals are seen as inhibitory but there is lots of evidence suggesting they are way more adaptive than that. @cornu_copiae and I packed them into an easily digestible TiCS review for you to feast on 🔥 50 day free access, and a little appetizer 👇

📢The first #preprint of my PhD is out!🧠https://t.co/Cwf8jkf1Pq
Do you feel you have memory problems? And would an objective test detect any? Both subjective & objective insights can help in #earlydetection of cognitive decline. Here, we used the @neurekaApp📱 to study both! 1/n
📢2nd DClin paper with @ULPsych & @ABIIreland📢
In an ABI population, we found significant positive associations between quality of therapeutic relationships and clients' self-awareness, after controlling for the impact of cognitive problems on awareness

Delighted to hear this work is now published in @CommsPsychol@Nature! Thanks to the reviewers for the insightful feedback on this.
🔗 https://t.co/APbaPIRnyz for the improved manuscript 🤩
Four (!) new @UCL postdoc positions open for superexciting computational psychiatry study combining cutting-edge computational methods with two(!) large RCTs to test whether different antidepressants treat depression via different RL mechanisms https://t.co/IRrl9pwc1v. Please RT.
Hi grad programs! If your letter of recommendation portal requires me to rate a student's "emotional stability" or similar, I will endorse everyone's "stability" as "once-in-a-decade" until you remove this stigmatizing and frankly embarrassing (for clinical psych programs) item!
1st paper from my industry-based PhD is out! It's #qualitative#implementationresearch on stakeholders (service-based, commercial, patients) associated with the implementation of #icbt. Kinda proud of myself! #impsci#dtx
In Dublin tomorrow and want to open Pandora’s box about the myths of habits ? 🧙♂️🔮
Come along (and bring a friend! 👯♀️) to this FREE event happening at Front Square from 2pm @tcddublin@START_ERN
🎉🚀Happy to say I've been awarded an @IrishResearch Postdoc Fellowship for my project “Understanding the mechanisms of habits and compulsivity: A neural decoding approach”
With @clairegillanTCD we will be exploring the mental and neural aspects of habit formation & expression🧠
