Our new preprint explains why social media creates a funhouse mirror--a distorted perception of social norms. Because extreme voices dominate discourse on most topics, users develop a false sense of shared norms osf.io/preprints/psya… Led by @CRobertson500 @KareenadelRosa

@jayvanbavel @CRobertson500 @KareenadelRosa This is a really great, clear finding. And I’ll add that we show analogous results, in a different way, among US politicians: politicians who share more ideologically extreme content are those who—by far—share the most information on social media (note the log scale).
WATCH: PBS @NewsHour dives into how the #ChildTaxCredit lifted 2M children out of poverty by giving parents the ability to buy essentials for their kids like groceries and school supplies. The #CTC invests in families and supports working parents. pbs.org/newshour/show/…
Seems like increases in schizophrenia might provide some decent negative control for the effect of smartphones on mental health outcomes. That is, I doubt phones cause schizophrenia, so maybe there are other (time-varying) confounders for all the mental health outcomes.

Real world debates are not about "foundations" of liberty or fairness. They are about *victims*--who is most vulnerable to mistreatment. Cops? Black people? Fetuses? 8 studies show moral debates are explained by diff "assumptions of vulnerability" (AoVs) btw libs and cons.

We’d likely recognize this crackdown anywhere else as what it is. Sad that so many former advocates of free speech refuse to see the nationwide crackdown.
One of the most shocking things from today’s student protest at @UTAustin today was seeing state troopers brandishing automatic weapons on campus. Were handguns and batons not enough for a crowd of angry 19-year-olds???
Tulane: mounted police quash student protests. (Hosni Mubarak sent camels to Tahrir). Seems VCU students got tear gas and pepper spray. Georgia police tazed handcuffed student. U of Texas sent in armed troopers (since it’s not an elementary school with an active shooter).
I unequivocally condemn @Tulane deploying mounted police against peaceful protestors.
The support coming out of the Middle East for American students literally destroys the argument that they hate us regardless if we support them or not. It was never true, it was always just a means of getting us to blindly agree with the mass murdering Arab civilians.
Yemeni printers work fast.

Full Professor, effective July 1 🎉🎉🎉
Just passed the new NYU encampment, in a different little plaza than the last one. No signs flirting with violence or antisemitism this time, clear demands ("shut down NYU Tel Aviv", not "end the Zionist state" like last time). Not sure what happened but encouraging to see.
1. The entire point of those w/ privilege is to use it esp at a protest 2. She was literally interfering with a student getting arrested & yelling it out in order to intervene, allow access & dissuade them. 3. She absolutely did not think her yelling that out would protect her.
If this is your response to someone who is out at a protest getting thrown to the ground by police, I’m certain you are not interested whatsoever in actual solidarity or building power of any kind 👍
It’s easy to support “the armed struggle” or the “crushing of Hamas” when you are doing neither the killing nor the dying. This conflict does not have a military solution. 100 years should be enough. Enough.

Go Crimson! We did the same in 1986. Built shantytown in Harvard Yard to force university to divest from companies doing business with apartheid South Africa. @Harvard
Harvard students launched a Gaza solidarity encampment and have effectively shut down Harvard Yard. The university had suspended students for speaking out for Palestine and standing up against the ongoing genocide in Gaza.
Unacceptable decision by Princeton. Faculty need to speak out and show up now
In a preemptive move, the University says that any protestors who participate in an encampment will likely be arrested and barred from campus, with further disciplinary action to follow. Reporting by Miriam Waldvogel dailyprincetonian.com/article/2024/0…
