Check out two new preprints from the lab!

First, led by @ukeleily: when people rate a 6/10 on suicidal urges, what does that mean? We use LLMs to examine the content & consistency of suicidal thoughts across people and over time in 2 longitudinal samples. https://t.co/jrmhTx5TCg

In some personal news...I got married last week to my best friend & love of my life @rubenvgenugten! It was truly the most magical weekend filled with endless love, laughter, joy, and happy tears 🥹💛

[Shirley B. Wang @ShirleyBWang]

Almost exactly one year after starting my lab (!), I'm thrilled to share our first preprint! 🥳 @ukeleily @sharinahamm @francesghart

We propose future directions for mathematical, computational, & digital methods to advancing suicide research.

[Shirley B. Wang @ShirleyBWang]

So excited to share a new paper in @NatMentHealth! We built idiographic machine learning models to predict suicidal thoughts with EMA data.

This is my 2nd dissertation paper and I'm thrilled to see it out! Huge thanks to all co-authors (tagged below).

This looks incredibly cool! If you're interested in autobiographical memory & new approaches to studying narratives, check it out.

I'm sad I won't be able to make the trip, especially given the amazing researchers organizing this!
