@toddmjensen @JeremyBKanter Thanks, Todd! This was a fun one.

New paper alert! Do you study relationship satisfaction? Ever use the Couples Satisfaction Index? Check out this new paper from yours truly and @JeremyBKanter on how the CSI performs across income groups 👇

Overall, the CSI-4 did well at distinguishing people with low-to-average relationship satisfaction. But, it suggested that lower-income individuals' satisfaction was lower than it really was.

Check out the paper and let us know your thoughts! (8/8)

@SNiehuis @AlanReifman @EmmaGrossmann et al. found that this item performed well on its own. Researchers may consider sticking to this item when evaluating satisfaction between groups.

You can also use some more complex modeling procedures, outlined in the discussion. (7/8)

P.S. Probably the best part of this dissertation process was my wife's reaction when I said "heteroskedasticity" while practicing my defense.

[Matthew Ogan @oganHDFS]

Dissertation: defended! 🛡️

What a ride grad school has been. Huge shout-out to @Kalemonk - the best advisor around - for all the support and guidance through these years.
