Very excited to share that yesterday we published the first four papers from the U.S. 2020 Facebook & Instagram Election Study in @ScienceMagazine & @Nature yesterday. A brief 🧵👇 with lots of links to great summaries from the papers' lead authors 1/12
Really well-done and informative experiment on Facebook shows that: — Information filter bubbles are extremely real — Eliminating the filter bubble doesn't seem to change political attitudes nature.com/articles/s4158…
During the 2020 election, we conducted a 23k-person pre-registered field experiment on Facebook, reducing exposure to content from politically like-minded sources: nature.com/articles/s4158…. The article has a wealth of other information, including stats on platform "echo chambers."
This week, my latest book came out, Our Common Bonds. A short thread on the book: press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book…

is the adjective form of milkshake duck "milkshake ducked" (e.g. that podcast was milkshake ducked)? Or do we always have to use it as a noun (e.g. that podcast is a milkshake duck)?
Spoiler: actually NOT by displaying "HURRY UP!!!" in giant flashing letters on the screens of survey respondents who are taking too long.

@RyanDEnos Also, if people are being performative in survey responses, they are also being performative in qual work and everything else. Surveys are inherently a social interaction - and one could argue that performative in social interactions is what matters for society.
I have never given this advice to a group of young liberals.
Whenever I’m on a career advice panel for young conservatives, I tell them to avoid group chats that use the N-word or otherwise blur the line between edgelording and earnest bigotry. I’m often asked afterwards why I made a point of saying so. This is why.freebeacon.com/elections/in-p…
The recent work by @BrendanNyhan and co-authors on Facebook is great and important, but I see it being wildly over-interpreted. Quite simply: at this point, well-identified studies can only hope to get at partial-equilibrium effects of social media.
So, about the 2020 @Meta social media studies in @Nature and @ScienceMagazine. A lot of reflections (see eg @mathver) and media coverage (eg @nytimes) on the substance and the setup. That is important and necessary. There are fundamental questions at stake. Short 🧵 [1/5]

Incredibly grateful to all of my co-authors, especially my amazing co-lead authors @emilythorson, Jaime Settle, @mwojcieszak & @p_barbera. Working on this paper has been one of the best experiences of my professional life - could not be more proud of the work that we did together
Congrats to @andyguess & team -- I reviewed one of these papers and it's incredibly well-done social science. These papers are a must-read for anyone interested in social media, polarization, or public opinion.
Today is publication day for the first 4 papers resulting from a unique collaboration between Meta researchers and outside academics to study the political effects of Facebook and Instagram in the 2020 U.S. election! 🧵 1/N
the over-use of "congratulations" is becoming kind of ridiculous
I don’t know exactly how to say this, but the result of the cocaine bear eating cocaine is not what I would consider “fun.” The movie is fun! But no child is going to be like “I want to have fun eating people just like that cool boggled-out bear, yay cocaine.”
Disappointed to see Hollywood once again sensationalize cocaine use in the new film 'Cocaine Bear', which entertains audiences (including children) by portraying cocaine use as fun and funny. The cocaine epidemic is largely a demand-side problem that ruins lives, destroys…
If the 2nd hand smoke evidence came out now instead of the 80s/90s, I feel like it’d be a real culture war shit show.
The NYT describes Wesleyan as having "a long tradition of recruiting classes that are diverse." According to Wesleyan's own stats, 67% of students are white, 5% of the newest cohort are black. Excited for the NYT to one day discover state schools! nytimes.com/2023/01/15/us/…
