Good timing for evidence on the importance of social media for democracy: now published in Nature Human Behaviour is our systematic review that aims to summarize the evidence to inform a more constructive debate and rethink the status quo: nature.com/articles/s4156…

This is brilliant news, well done Peter Kyle. We need a sensible, considered approach to child online safety, and this new partnership is an important step: bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Insta users who self-described as "addicted" only fit actual addiction criteria 2.4% of time, but new work from Ian Axel Anderson, PhD finds that the self-label still reduced their well-being. Frames of social media use matter

I really love this work that Matthew B. Jané and team are putting in on this. For whatever it’s worth, here is a thread comprising my wishlist for this project… 🧵

Where do people get information about #science? How do they #communicate about it? 🌎 We surveyed 71,922 people in 68 countries to study their science information diets and #communication behavior, global patterns, and country factors like #AcademicFreedom and #PressFreedom ⤵️

I found this particular admission startling. They were too busy getting the Anxious Generation out - the book that is even now being used to drive policy worldwide - to do the basic scientific analysis needed to show that the book's claims are true. Wild.

This offer is still on. If you’re interested in the real science of screen time effects, this is the book you want, and for less than the price of a small coffee.

Never let it be said that you cannot shitpost your way to tenure. I am very happy to say that I will start a new position as Senior Lecturer here at the University of Bern in the new year.

In a remarkable new study, Simine Vizier (simine vazire), Sarah Schiavone (Sarah Schiavone), and Mijke Rhemtulla (Mijke Rhemtulla) surveyed 724 personality/social psychology researchers to investigate what they think of their own field. First, the good news: 🧵

Our study on the TikTok algorithm and eating disorders is finally published (big thx 2 Emily Harris). We scraped the metadata for ~1 million TikTok videos delivered to users w/ eating disorders versus users w/out eating disorders (i.e. healthy controls) sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Periodic reminder that our research group in Switzerland is steadily expanding. If you’re interested in writing a grant together to do a postdoc on the meta science of error detection or measurement then get in touch! We can offer great scenery, salary, and shitposting.

This #SaferInternetDay, we asked Oxford Internet Institute experts what they believe is "too good to be true" about life online. Postdoc researcher Sabrina Norwood advocates for evaluating when screen time may feel overwhelming and taking breaks to preserve a healthy relationship with screens.
