Yes, and people like to specialize and don't like to be wrong. I've had old school neuroscientists tell me psychology isn't a thing.

So much this. I've been treated as if I had a dunce cap on for entertaining ideas from philosophy and phenomenology.

Yes, there's risk everywhere you constantly wonder if you've made the wrong choice. simple questions like 'your work doesn't fit anywhere, where you gonna publish?' is enough to knock your confidence down

Definitely inflated my imposter syndrome. For a long time I regretted my choice to do an MA in philosophy. But it really is a core strength of my work, I've come to see.

I felt something similar about not being from a psych background for years. Only after joining
@ProfData's lab did some of it start to dissipate because I'm with more computational people.2 replies 1 retweet 4 likes -
That is great. I had a similar experience in the FIL, realizing that I had what I needed to collaborate with great formal/modelling people, but also unique experimental design skills that they wanted as well.

I definitely got dinged for not being from a psych or Ed background. Ed Psych is a weird and hostile world ;)

Given that I have been told that UK Ed Psych is not the same as USA Ed Psych (like actually different fields?) I am not sure what it is!

We have separate Ed Psych fields here too, one more professional and one research based. I ended up in the latter.

I tend to distinguish b/t "school psych" (diagnosis, evaluation, and intervention), human development (dev psych w/ focus on learning, social psych wrt kids), learning science (cogsci+embodied+more modern psych more broadly), & methods research.

very welcome! as always, there's no lines, just shades. the starkest divider would be b/t school psych & everything else. in the US you have to do a residency for a year to get a certification; the rest are unregulated.
