A huge thanks to my supervisors @donvanraven.bsky.social & Henk Kiers for their guidance and support!

For a deeper dive into statistical interactions & model misspecification, check out our related preprint: doi.org/10.31234/osf...

To interact or not to interact: The pros and cons of including interactions in linear regression models - Behavior Research Methods Interaction effects are very common in the psychological literature. However, interaction effects are typically very small and often fail to replicate. In this study, we conducted a simulation compari...

Excited to share that my first PhD paper got published! We explored the effects of correctly vs. failing to model true interactions in data. Can model misspecification lead to reversed conclusions? Which model generalizes better to a larger sample?

New preprint w/ the WARN-D team (incl. @eikofried.bsky.social @rayyantutunji.bsky.social, @aljoscharimpler.bsky.social & others): We explain our exploration of EMA items in data of ~600 individuals. We investigate distributions/changes over time/context/interindividual differences & more

Thank you both for your kind words. I had great guidance and it was a pleasure to be part of the team!
