Sharing this R resources database with y'all! For the past 4 years, I have been accumulating resources (mainly free ones) for new & advanced #Rlearners in their programming journey. Feel free to share! resourcesdatabase.com #RStats #RResources #learningR #DataScience #Python #R

For #rstats users, {renv} now provides similar functionality to {groundhog}. With your script open in RStudio, simply call renv::embed() & a code snippet will be inserted at the top with the script's version-specific dependencies and the code to install them 🧪#stats rstudio.github.io/renv/referen...

Calling embed() inspects the dependencies of the specified document then generates and inserts a call to use() that looks something like this:

renv::use(
  "digest@0.6.30",
  "rlang@0.3.4"
)
Then, when you next run your R script or render your .Rmd, use() will:

Create a temporary library path.

Install the requested packages and their recursive dependencies into that library.

Activate the library, so it's used for the rest of the script.

How strange! I just added the correct link in the thread. Here’s it I’d also psyarxiv.com/uv3tw/

Here is a brief example on how to do a power analysis for a longitudinal multi-level study when you want to vary the input parameters and easily produce visual output of all variations. #rstats #openscience pgmj.github.io/powerviz.html

Figure showing various levels of statistical power when the number of participants, effect size and dropout rate varies.

Paper emerged from a great honours thesis written by Rébecca Bisonnette, and evolved in new and exciting ways led by fabulous PhD student and first author Andrea Sander.

Prepreprint! Family language strategies (e.g. one-parent-one-language) don't explain kids' language exposure, but individual parents' approaches (i.e., using a lang. regularly/sometimes/never) do! Mothers' effect on exposure was 2x fathers' --> gendered caregiving roles. psyarxiv.com/x4jbm/

In the paper we discuss one explanation which is that individuals with ADHD orient more to novelty. Could boost word learning/vocabulary size. But for now that’s purely speculative. Love to hear any other ideas!

New preprint with an exciting and unexpected result! The ADHD vocabulary size advantage: Monolingual and bilingual young adults with ADHD have larger vocabularies than controls. Co-authored PhD student extrodinaire Melanie Brouillard (seriously, it was all her idea). osf.io/h2fcj/

Individuals with ADHD and bilinguals have each widely been considered vulnerable to vocabulary deficits compared to their peers. However, the interaction of ADHD and bilingualism in affecting vocabula...
