How can we leverage generative AI to advance social science methods and research? Daniel Karell and Thomas Davidson led a special issue in Sociological Methods &β―Research to find out. Special kudos to them! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Happy to share my new paper with Cat Dang Ton and @eollion.bsky.social on how to use generative LLMs for extracting information from textual data (conditionally accepted at Sociological Methods & Research)
Here's a rundown..

π¨ ACCEPTED AT SMR π¨β¨Confused by colleagues who seem to want to study LLMs instead of humans? Frustrated by skeptics (e.g., myself 8 months ago) who dismiss LLMs as a potential source of data on human behavior? Check out our paper for a new way forward: osf.io/j3bnt_v3/
