Idk who needs to hear this but quantitative methodologies are not “unbiased” or “objective”.
Everything from the measures you choose to include or NOT include, as well as the variables/constructs you control for (or choose to not pay attention to), expose your biases.

If you’re not good at stats now, doesn’t mean you never will be.
Before my PhD program, despite 3 stat classes, I couldn’t tell you what a p value was, but with great mentorship & training, it began to click and I finished a whole concentration in quantitative psych.

I removed the “views my own” from my profile because if 1) it’s social media so that should be apparent and 2) if my views on Black lives and Black LGBTQIA+ people are “not PC” then we have a problem on sight. Period. 🏳️🌈.

1 of my first Howard memories is when my Black Lit professor, a Black man with several published books, told me I was a great writer.
As a low-income first-gen from Mississippi, it was the 1st time I felt like I belonged at college.
This is why black faculty and HBCUs matter.
