I'm going to #icwsm2024! Wrote a DeWeb workshop paper with @Samanthph, on "what is decentralized social media?" Looking forward to vibrant debates about our work! (1/2) Paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2404.15509

Important new study finds "overwhelming majorities of the [U.S.] public oppose violations of democratic norms and virtually nobody supports partisan violence." Please share this broadly! It is so important to fight misperceptions about politics and violence.

@seanbogart @szeyuhninawang @GordPennycook @DG_Rand Thanks! Looking forward

I am speaking at #SPSP2024 Annual Convention on work with @szeyuhninawang @GordPennycook @DG_Rand where we look at the effect of emotional language on belief in false (and true!) information: osf.io/preprints/psya… Happy to discuss further- message me if you want to meet up!

@quarbby Thanks lynnette 😸❤️

If you’re in #SPSP2024, go watch my amazing labmate speak! We have the typical college bff friendship: annoy each other, step on each other’s toes but we always have each other’s backs in research and life.

#SPSP2024 #comppsych @mmuthukrishna: what a time to be a psychologist...data galore!

New working paper: "Emotional language reduces belief in false claims" osf.io/preprints/psya… You read that right: When adding (v. removing) emotional language to the same underlying claim, people believe it *less*. with @Samanthph @szeyuhninawang @DG_Rand

Psychological inoculations against misinformation have already been administered to many millions of people. How successful can we expect them to be? Join @Sander_vdLinden and me for a discussion about the potential efficacy of inoculations at scale: shorensteincenter.org/new-event/psyc…

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions or comments! :)

This work has implications for detecting polarization on social media using user-generated content, quantifying the effects of offline divides or de-polarization efforts online, and comparing community dynamics across contexts.

Reviving my Twitter account (for the last time?) to publicize my newest paper on political and social polarization, A high-dimensional approach to measuring online polarization, recently published open-access in the Journal of Computational Social Science rdcu.be/dpov8
