It’s grad school application season, and I wanted to give some public advice.

A reminder that I’m accepting applications for PhD students!

In this behemoth effort led by @anhhtran.bsky.social, we reanalysed 11 experience-sampling datasets, and found limited evidence that context (intensity, controllability, and social features) meaningfully shaped everyday emotion regulation strategy use.

Managing emotions is not easy - we often get by with a little help. In the NEW Social Interaction and Emotion Lab at Rutgers-Newark, we’ll study how social interactions regulate emotion using experiments, naturalistic data, and multi-modal approaches. ✨ Now recruiting! ✨🙌 Learn more: raziasahi.com

Dr. Springstein did qualitative focus groups to discover potential issues and incentives for older adults to do daily life sampling research — nice idea! @srndna.bsky.social

I will be recruiting at least 1 PhD student for the Sleep, Circadian Rhythms, and Psychopathology (SCRAP) Lab at WashU in STL this application cycle! ☀️⏰😴 Read more about our current projects here: sites.wustl.edu/scraplab/

Really pleased with how this turned out, giving new insight into the linguistics of therapy: Found that LLMs estimate psychological distance better than dictionary-based methods used in prior work (www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...), also finding that therapists who *encourage* distance fare better

The call for abstracts for the 2026 SAS Annual Conference is now open!! If you haven't already, start thinking about what you'll submit--we're so excited to see what everyone has to share this year👀

Repost & share with you colleagues--the most affect science, the merrier☺️

New paper out at the Journal of Psychopathology and Clinical Science!

We examined unconditional & event-related changes in pathological vs normal-range personality using 4 metrics to compare their developmental links, how these vary with life events, and whether unique effects emerge across metrics

Our new paper in JG:PS is out!

In a sample of over 3100 older adults assessed each year for 12 years, loneliness & sense of purpose were unique predictors of cognitive decline, though past research has underestimated the reciprocal nature of this relationship.

The same pattern also shows up for personality traits 👇

Men suppress emotions more than women?

New preprint by @elisekalo.bsky.social and colleagues reports 11 experience sampling studies which suggest that gender differences in the suppression of emotional expression may reflect internalized stereotypes rather than behavioral reality.

🤔 Can people with dementia participate in intensive experience sampling studies via smartphone?

🧐Yes, they can! Even with high-frequency sampling schemes (8 times / day)!
