Yes! Honored to contribute to this important journal. Review of Communication Research is one of the few outlets for lit reviews and meta analyses in comm science. So, highly recommended for your (systematic) reviews (a 1st step in any research project). rcommunicationr.org

Onderweg naar het #Etmaal2023 congres, met eerst een preconference over tools voor systematic literature reviews. #zinin RCommunicationR

Many of us are @ the annual #Etmaal2023 com. sci. conference. At 13:20 (Cub B101) Camiel Beukeboom presents research showing how biased inferences of quantity expressions can contribute to the communication of #stereotypes. #diversity

Mooi voorbeeld van de #NegationBias. De stereotype verwachting van Zwitserland (degelijkheid) wordt herhaald in beschrijving van situatie die er totaal aan tegengesteld is. De #ontkenning bevestigt de regel. #stereotypes #VK

Het is toch ironisch dat de #OneLoveBand zelf niet #inclusief is. Pasvorm gebaseerd op gespierde (mannen) arm? #VK

Interesting article on the never-right gendered age bias. Women in Leadership Face Ageism at Every Age: hbr.org/2023/06/women-…

Ivar Vermeulen presented yesterday the book "Connected World" edited by him that compiles insights from 100 Academics from the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (inactief) on How to Build Better Connections. You can download the book here: vuuniversitypress.com/wp-content/upl…

New paper! We study how #stereotypes about conversation partners shape topic choice and the types of questions asked. Stereotypes (here about gender and age) were reflected in subtle variations in question formulations. doi.org/10.1177/014616… #openaccess
