Få saker provocerar mig så mycket som vårdpolitiker som skryter över överskott i budgeten samtidigt som de inte förmår bemanna vården. Bra sammanfattning i artikeln av hur vi hamnat här.
Inspektionen för vård och omsorg har inlett en stor granskning av regionernas sjukhusvård. Redan efter en första analys konstaterar Ivo att regionerna misslyckats att rekrytera och behålla vårdpersonal - vilket lett till vårdplatsbrist i minst 18 regioner. buff.ly/3LdL8ch
In 10 minutes, the break in this seminar is over and students will be discussing a published paper of very poor quality. Always one of my favorite items in this course. :)
What's the most ethical and simple way to include a question on gender?
The problem with man/woman/non-binary is that the non-binary people disappear (or even get excluded) in the statistical analysis, basically binary washing research.
Suggestions?

So erm.. in normal speaking English, what is the difference?
#AcademicTwitter #AcademicChatter Please, share!
I am looking for the authors of:
Fortier, M. S., & Gaumond, S. (2007). Testing a self-determination process model of physical activity persistence in adolescents.
I was nominated for a full membership in @SigmaXiSociety and just accepted :). Feels like an odd flex here in the land where flexing is a big no-no. Haha! (also, I was nominated by people I don't know, like @fanellasaunders )
Looking forward to receiving my first @AmSciMag copy!
#AcademicTwitter , when writing about children and their parents, what is the correct and inclusive way to mention the responsible adult(s) in the child's home?
(Legal) guardians?
Care-givers?
Do I put the last "s" between parentheses to include single parent families?
Hi #AcademicTwitter
1. If you hold a tenured position and are honest with yourself, how many hrs per week do you spend on academia-related activities without getting paid for them?
Ex: review, giving more feedback on a paper than you were given time for, writing proposals.
New paper on the role of self-perceptions of ageing in physical performance among older adults (70 and up).
It's published in this special edition, edited by @ekvall_eva
It's my first "last author" article. :)

Back in 2015, I invested part of my first PhD salary in my mental health; I bought an electrical piano to teach myself to play when needing to dissociate.
Was playing Satie the other day.
My 20 yo daughter: "are YOU playing Twilight!?"
🤦🏼♀️
Undergrad physio's journal club (as part of a methods course). Very exciting to listen to their breakout room discussions.
Don't have much to add when we gather. :)
Worked hard to get an offer for a tenured track senior lecturer position (and got the offer). Now, I'm e-mailing back and forth with a member of parliament, because we will be co-moderating the final panel at a conference on the future of ageing and health research.
Surreal days
When describing men and women separately in a table or other forms of results. Do you use the word female as a noun?
e.g., n=230 (48% females).
Why do you not write 48% women?

"“if I walk to the pharmacy this morning, I’ll have to do something that doesn’t involve any physical exertion this afternoon, so that I can do X tomorrow”… (“physical exertion”, in my context, usually means standing and walking)."

This question comes up a lot. My best advice to those who write a compilation dissertation (a synthesis of 4 sub-studies/articles) is the following:
Turn your research plan into your dissertation as you go. From the start.
This Post is from an account that no longer exists. Learn more
Format your discussion with bullet points and add any question/discussion you have along the way (if they MIGHT be worth discussing).
The discussion writing/editing is where the real work is. Where the real synthesis shows. Most of he actual "writing up my thesis" time. 4/
