Peter Soyster

Doctoral candidate in Clinical Science @BerkeleyPsych. Idiographic and nomothetic approaches to understanding and predicting substance use

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

Working with @NicolasLeenaer1 on this project has been an unqualified joy. Momentary prediction of health-effecting behaviors is important, complicated, and just getting started. Please do us a favor by reading this new preprint and sharing your thoughts about our approach.

[Nicolas Leenaerts @nicolasleenaerts.bsky.social @NicolasLeenaer1]

New preprint! I am so happy to share my passion with the rest of the world! Many thanks to @SoysterPeter and @aaronjfisher for guiding me.

We applied #machinelearning to #ESM/#EMA data to build predict #bingeeating, #alcohol use, and #bingedrinking.

@sjblakemore I don’t have any data or statistics on this, but in my experience, the answer is a strong yes. Every committee I’ve ever served on has been 1 male presenting person for 2-3 female presenting persons

@aaronjfisher Saw the meme and had a shock of experiential self- recognition

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

Just in case people are curious what it feels like to be a “jr. colleague” in research psychology. “Please solve the problems we haven’t been able to solve, but if you critique the things that I do that aren’t working, you are improprietous and will need to be put in your place”

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

@aaronjfisher Ha! Nothing specific this time. Just more of a general comment on my experiences

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

@KMKing_Psych That would be great!

🚨Obligatory match results post🚨Snark aside, I’m excited to be heading to the Seattle VA. This is the culmination of a long educational journey for me, and I feel really good about the next step.

@Juliabmcd Congrats to you too!!!

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

@Cassie_Boness @argphi We were so lucky to have you!!

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

@EikoFried @UCBerkeley I guess if anyone was curious about where all the “neuroscience of happiness” people went… we know where to find them

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

@EmeryNoahN One would think. But they were a little too distracted with calling each other ‘moron’ to consult with Dr. Google

I’d like to publicly settle the argument two teenage boys are loudly having in front of my house right now. Bob Dylan, in fact, did not write Stairway to Heaven.

[Peter Soyster @SoysterPeter]

I think I just found a new title for my dissertation
