Preconception risk and promotive factors of postpartum social support: A multi-decade prospective cohort study
Stress in Action Wearables Database: A database of non-invasive wearable monitors with systematic technical, validity, reliability, and usability information
The Stress in Action Wearables Database (SiA-WD) includes an overview of various technical, practical, data related details of a host of wearables that can record physiological signals in daily life. Importantly, a systematic search per wearable is conducted to identify the studies that investigated their validity, reliability, and/or usability. Stress in Action (stres-in-action.nl) is a ten-year research program, and the database will be iteratively updated at least for the duration of this project. Upon each major iteration, the newest available version will be uploaded to this project. The database will be openly available here upon publication of the related manuscript.
SiA-WD affiliated institutions are VU Amsterdam and University of Twente
Understanding Responsive Leadership: Antecedents of Leadership Cognition and Behavior for Situationally-Appropriate Leadership
The present study aims to gain an advanced understanding of leaders’ situation construal accuracy as a presumably crucial antecedent of responsive leadership behavior in leader-follower interactions. Specifically, this research will examine the role of situational characteristics (i.e., follower cues) and leaders’ personal dispositions in predicting situation construal accuracy. To do so, this study will utilize a randomized within-subjects experimental design
Library Value from Public Funding Referendums
As part of the Libraries in Community Systems study of library service value, this project examines data from US public library local funding referendums. It will go through four major phases: replicate the 2020 publication "Factors of Success for Libraries on the Ballot: 2014 - 2018" (McNutt, Yang, Chrastka, 2021: https://www.everylibraryinstitute.org/factors_of_success_report); extend replication to vote years 2010 - 2022 with additional community environment variables; analyze single referendums with precinct level data for probability (log-odds) consistency and attempt to derive willingness-to-pay; if willingness to pay can be derived from single referendums, those results are shared

Anything Goes: Statistical Interactions Without Substantive Theory
Interaction effects are commonly investigated in psychological research. Spurious interaction effects can occur, for instance because the outcome variable is related in a nonlinear way to an independent variable. Our study had two objectives: (1) to evaluate to what extent interaction terms in linear models can approximate non-linear phenomena, and (2) to assess how well linear models capture non-standard moderation effects.
In Study 1, we created population data where the outcome variable was either monotonically or non-monotonically related to a predictor. In Study 2, we created population data sets, in which effects of one predictor on the correlation between outcome and another predictor were present. In both studies, we varied the correlation between the predictor variables, the signal to noise ratio, and the sample size. We applied linear regression models, both with and without an interaction term. We assessed the Type-1-Error rate, the sample effect size of the interaction effects, and the explained variance of the estimated model in the sample and in the population.
For study 1, we found that traditional interaction terms were associated with increased Type-I error rates, but small effect sizes. For study 2, we found that if the effect is non-monotonic a traditional interaction term in a linear model does not sufficiently capture such effects.
We conclude that relying solely on traditional interaction terms in linear models can be misleading. It may be beneficial to consider alternative modeling approaches or more flexible methods to better capture and understand non-linear and irregular dependency effects
Adolescents' social adjustment from Bowen's family systems theory: Interparental conflict, family rituals, and parent–child attachment
Although the relationship between family factors and adolescents' social adjustment has been extensively explored, research integrating multiple family system variables to explain adolescents' social adjustment remains scarce. Grounded in Bowen's family systems theory, this investigation explores whether interparental conflict affects adolescents' social adjustment through the sequential mediating roles of family rituals and parent–child attachment (PCA)
