Very interesting study from SOFI's @annahsandberg et al: PhD students are at a significantly higher risk of mental health issues compared to their peers with master's degrees. 🧵

In German we have the term "altersmilde" - indicating that people become more relaxed/mild with age. I noticed that I have developed the opposite tendency when it comes to reviewing papers - 20 years in. I reject papers much more often than I used to. What about you?
From August 6th to August 16th, the Summer Institute in Computational Social Science will take place in Reykjavik, hosted by the University of Iceland.

New PNAS! Qualitative interviews help us understand the origins of unpredictability in life outcome prediction tasks doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2322973…
We are looking at LimeSurvey for for our coming survey experiments (including videos etc). We are still considering Qualtrics as well - but LimeSurvey seems to have advantages in terms of GDPR compatibility/data storage. Anybody has some experience with LimeSurvey?
