"In retrospect, these strategies were a form of authorial self-preservation."

Autoethnography of the rhetorical and emotional dimensions of writing about study limitations:

The paper draws on 8 manuscripts, 17 drafts, 22 #PeerReview by the author, journal entries, and email exchanges.

Interesting reflections & it illustrates the challenges and questions, especially if one has not written many manuscripts, yet.

Excellent talk by Kevin Weinfurt in #Plenary1 discussing multiple types of measures (go also to #Plenary4 for that!), increased use of high-intensity longitudinal data, and generative AI for assessments.

Not sure this is what the #ISOQOL_NewInvestigators wanted when asking me to talk about advice for manuscript writing, but this is the slide people talked to me about 👇

#1/ First day of #ISOQOL started with an interesting symposium on progress when optimizing the collection of patient-reported outcomes in clinical trials.

Part of the discussion were desirable changes to the publication system when publishing expert consensus and guidance documents:

1) What does #PeerReview for such a document look like?

2) Static journal publications may not be the best format for such documents.

Both seem solvable, no?

Informative read beyond the particular application.

As a #NightshiftEditor I am still working more on the problem that most studies do not even report their sampling and take it for granted that complete-data only analyses are fine.

As noted before 😉
