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/psyarxiv/jn…
Happy to discuss further- message me if you want to meet up!

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.
