Here comes my mastodon #introduction: I'm Ann-Kathrin, a postdoc at the Eating Lab Salzburg (Austria) with @Jblechert. I am applying #EMA #EMIs #JITAIs and experimental approaches to understand and improve #eatingbehavior and #eatingdisorders. I'm especially interested in N of 1 modeling approaches and multilevel modeling.
