We did it! And to think--this is just the beginning!
It's official - Congratulations to DRs. Caitlin Ducate (@csducate) and Guillaume Dury (@GJDury)! You are both amazing scholars and humans. I am privileged to know you & to have a front row seat to witness the launching of two illustrious careers.

He's underselling it. They have a great repository for teaching statistics with R to graduates and undergraduates (that I've been using for my course), and they think deeply about how to do better science. So do go check it out!
Check out our website! @Jake_Day4 and I created a site to publicly share course materials and musings about scientific theory and methods. reluctantcriminologists.com/

Today, I became a Doctor! I am really grateful to my committee (@DrBohmert, Bruce Sales, Roger Levesque, and John Kruschke), my colleagues, my cohort (@dr_miakelly, @willworkforPhD), my partner (@GJDury), and my long-suffering chair and mentor @RealJonBrauer for their support 1/n
I am equal parts proud and unsurprised to announce that @csducate successfully defended her dissertation today, entitled "Masculinity, Femininity, and Crime: How Threats to Gender Explain Crime and Deviance." Congrats Dr. Ducate! 1/n

In the past year, I’ve talked to many bright, curious, ambitious people who believed they couldn’t do research. That was me, not long ago. Here I share my improved understanding in hopes of offering a more empowering model of what research entails: kanjun.me/writing/research-a…

A good thing to keep in mind when designing/teaching a stats class, especially if using R.

I am relieved to report that successfully defended my dissertation proposal today! Thanks to @RealJonBrauer for being a phenomenal chair and @DrBohmert for being an A++ committee member (along with Roger Levesque, Bruce Sales, and John Kruschke). Now to get some data!

I have a website now! It has a normal domain name and everything. csducate.com s/o to @SolomonKurz and @apreshill on their great tutorials for getting started with blogdown in R. Saved me a *lot* of hair-pulling.

"The field of nonlinear systems tells us that 'linear thinking' is just not enough. Approximating the behavior of objects via linear systems does not do justice to the complexity of behaviors observed in real situations..."
𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘅 𝘀𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀. Some ppl enjoyed this introduction to complex systems, emergence, and related concepts; discussion about the brain at the end. Made into a preprint in case it's useful to some who might want to use it for teaching purposes. osf.io/635tq

Students in my #rstats working sessions were hoping to learn a little more Git/GitHub. So in a 2nd session I focus on merge conflicts and pull requests. I'm betting I'll find a lot of things I want to change after the session. 🙃 Very first draft: aosmith16.github.io/spring-r…

This morning I found out I received an IU College of Arts and Sciences Dissertation Research Fellowship!!! I can still hardly believe it.
