I've been working on the follow-up to When It Is Darkest tonight after a wee bit of a hiatus, for various reasons. When I published When It Is Darkest, I did so without an agent - and was super pleased by how it went. But I think that an agent would really help for book #2. If…

For those considering post-bacc programs, here is a fun paper I led w/ @neurovelosa describing 10 ways to thrive in them! Though the state of these programs is uncertain, I hope it’s still informative for future students @TheRealDrDukes journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/a…

🚨New study alert! We explored how youths’ beliefs about guns relate to offensive & defensive gun behaviors. Key takeaway: beliefs about safety & neighborhood risks drive gun behaviors, while emotional risk beliefs can be protective. doi.org/10.1177/001112…

New article in press! 💥 We found 3 personality profiles of older adults who had attempted suicide, which differed from comparisons on key health/risk characteristics. Suicide prevention efforts and person-centered tx among older adults at risk are needed! doi.org/10.1016/j.jagp…
