🚨New Working Paper: How well do people understand the political views of those around them? 🚨 We asked Americans to report their own views. Then we asked them to guess what other people in their own party believed. We found a systematic bias! 🧵👇

What in the world goes on inside the brain of a teenager? 🧠 That’s the question that scientists working on a country-wide study following thousands of young people have spent the last decade trying to answer. vox.com/podcasts/47139…
