This account is a firehose of quantitative racism but it is worth re-iterating that: if a trait like skin color is caused by genes, and society determines outcomes based on skin color, then -- yes -- those outcomes will also be heritable. This is heritability 101!

Replying to @LDbaseRepo
@LDbaseRepo Week 2 of #OpenScienceOctober This week visualized the association between word reading and arithmetic using quantile correlations, finding these to have seemingly stronger associations at the low end of the distribution compared to the high end.

Looking at a scatterplot of these variables, it looks like this is likely due to heteroskedasticity between the variables, with greater variation in the upper ends than the low ends.

Happy to share some new work that Zhixin Zhu, @jarlogan, Lee Thompson, and I have been working on, which is now available as a preprint! osf.io/preprints/osf/tc5f3 In this paper we use a novel spatial weighting procedure to extend SEM into the quantile space.

We applied this method to simulated data with varying regression, latent growth curve, and factor analysis estimates/structures across the distributions of our measures, finding that our novel approach was able to accurately detect these estimates across the distribution.

Further, we were additionally able to detect differentially best-fitting models based on the distribution, such as comparing 1 vs 2-factor nested models or non-nested 2-factor models, where varying models fit best depending on the portion of the distribution analyzed.

In this paper, @SheroJeffrey et al. investigate the extent to which socioeconomic status and geographical location interact to moderate the genetic and environmental components of reading attainment. @acamh members can read the full paper to learn more. bit.ly/4209Mqq

Are you a current/former SPSS user who wants to keep that same embedded metadata workflow when working in #rstats? Here are several examples of how to add or keep metadata (variable labels, value labels, and missing value labels) in your datasets: github.com/Cghlewis/data-wra…

Thank you so much for having me! My PM's and email are always open for putting on these kinds of talks/workshops!
Thank you so much to @SheroJeffrey for talking with the @poWOMENer Data Management Hub about data de-identification methods today! Materials can be found here: osf.io/xzjtw/
