Stefan Björk Ψ @drbjork@scholar.social

By way of #introduction, I could also mention that I am also a #GenderStudies scholar and #feminist.

I'm a #PhD of #Psychology and work #psychologist at the Swedish National Employment Service. I have a keen interest in #PhilosophyOfPsychology, #PhilosophyOfMind, #CriticalPsychology, #HistoryOfPsychology and #Phenomenology. I blog (in #Swedish) at https://fenomenologen.se. Is that enough as an #introduction?

I'll toot about #ESC as my music alter ego @bluebirch tonight.

I was told I think as a woman when it comes to applications. "I'm not qualified and won't get this position anyway, so there's no point in trying to convince anyone otherwise."

I guess I have to write more convincing applications.

I got the expert's assessments regarding a position as senior lecturer I had applied for.

"Björk has some teaching experience, although not in qualitative methods. Björk has no experience from research after his dissertation. He has no international publications,
although he has published one article in Swedish. [...] In conclusion, Björk is not qualified for the position and as a consequence does not belong to the primary group."

Publishing in Swedish was a bad career move.

Lunch by the river.

Scoring Rey Complex Figure Test (RCFT) for the first time. Tedious work!

I created a plot that can be used when interpreting psychological test scores. The labels are in Swedish, but can of course be translated into your language of choice.

Back to work after a day on sick leave. Didn't sleep anything the last night. That's the thing that haunts me. Sometimes I just can't sleep.

Reading a book my fomer PhD supervisor has just published.

It... lacks something. It is, in fact, not very well written, with some annoying phrases (like "so it seems like...") reapeated over and over.

She always said disciples should outgrow their masters. Maybe I did...

I was wong. This wasn't a good night. Still awake. Can't sleep. I hate #insomnia.

Good night. 🛌💤

Applying for a job at the university. Last minute, as usual, so I end up with a crappy application, as usual.

Must admit Crimes of Grindenwald ends with a rather suspenseful cliff hanger.

The Maestro is on stage.

At the local #jazz club waiting for Shai Maestro.
