Going to send this to my family when they ask me what studying social science is like:

Study finds perceived political bias in popular AI models Both Republicans and Democrats think LLMs have a left-leaning slant when discussing political issues.

If misinformation is often associated with radical-right, but LLMs are often seen as more leftist (e.g. news.stanford.edu/stories/2025...), I wonder if it could really be some remedy against the spread of harmful misinformation

🚨Paper Alert🚨

Excited to share our registered report forthcoming in The Journal of Politics @thejop.bsky.social!

In "Borderline Democracy?", @armenon.bsky.social and I ask: Do voters punish governments for curbing civil liberties to tackle salient issues like migration? 🧵👇

Have been reading Navalny's memoir and remembered that there is a gem of a field experiment published in @jepsjournal.bsky.social, which took place in the 2013 Moscow mayoral election, the last election Putin "allowed" Navalny to contest: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Causal evidence that "the proliferation of surveys may lead to lower response rates" doi.org/10.1093/jssa...

On the other platform radical right ppl called me an extremist.

Apparently here it is now the radical left calling me that.

Getting tired of being personally attacked for the research I'm doing. If you think the research questions I ask make me an extremist, please unfollow!

Can banning political ideologies protect democracy? 🛡️🆚🗣️

Our (w. @valentimvicente.bsky.social) paper finds: punishing individuals might backfire. We study a West German policy banning "extreme left" individuals from working for the state.

New article out in World Politcs. We analyze how different groups react to varying programs of social democratic parties. We find less trade-offs than often assumed. Generally, more left-progressive programs increase support among social democratic potentials

And of course thanks to @rdassonneville.bsky.social and @rlachat.bsky.social for the fantastic organisation 🙏🏻 under their excellent planning the week full of presentations and discussions went so smoothly and was genuinely fun 💫✨

An amazing week in Paris! ✨ Meeting enthusiastic fellow researchers & connecting with the people whose work inspires your own is so motivating 🫶🏻 Huge thanks to our lecturers @sldelange.bsky.social, @simonchauchard.bsky.social, @florianfoos.bsky.social, @jrovny.bsky.social, @vinarceneaux.bsky.social

It was great talking about recent developments in campaign and (social) media influence at the CERIUM-FMSH summer school - and even better to learn about so many promising PhD projects on these topics. Thanks for having me in sunny Paris @rlachat.bsky.social & @rdassonneville.bsky.social!

thank you for very interesting presentation!!

excited to be a part of it!:)

The regression table examines factors influencing daily housework hours for women and men, highlighting key findings: - **Female Interviewer:** Women spend more time on housework with a female interviewer, increasing the gender gap. - **Paid Work Time:** More paid work reduces housework time for both genders, more so for men. - **Income:** Higher income correlates with less housework for both. - **Marital Status:** Married women do more housework; married men do less. - **Children:** Having children increases housework for both, with significant effects across all child age groups. - **Interview Length:** Longer interviews slightly increase men's housework time. The model explains 16.7% of the variance for women and 9.09% for men, based on 18,965 individuals and 110,544 observations. (Summarized by mistral)

Interesting paper on effect of interviewer gender on gender gap in reported housework. "women tend to report significantly more hours of housework when interviewed by a woman rather than by a man" link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Conference season is upon us. Researchers will soon be challenged with the most difficult technical problem of their career: transferring the slides to the conference computer!

A trick: bit.ly. Create a short link to your slides, go to the link and voila you made it without passing around the USB.

10/ Please help share our extended replication to correct the record on this misleading policy evaluation!

The Hidden Gift of Fewer Words What Writing in a Second Language Taught Me about Writing

Writing in a second language?

Welcome to the elite club of "I know exactly what I want to say, but my grammar doesn't."

A short 🧵 for students, early career researchers, academics & writers generally (forged in frustration & finesse).

@draamattheis.bsky.social shows how:
❗Online harassment of researchers is common

Introducing the Archive of Interwar Europe Election Data & Assemblies (AIEEDA) Scientific Data - Introducing the Archive of Interwar Europe Election Data & Assemblies (AIEEDA)

A big moment in my PhD journey!

We released the Archive of Interwar Europe Election Data and Assemblies (AIEEDA) in 25 European democracies between 1919 and 1939.

I’m proud to have contributed on geo-coded data from Latvia 🇱🇻 & Estonia 🇪🇪 and to celebrate my first publication 🥳🎉

Last week, I had my first academic conference presentation ✨🫶🏻 I presented my paper on Ethnic cleavages & Voting in interwar Latvia at the Political Economy of Democracy and Dictatorship (PEDD) Conference at Münster University. Huge thanks to organisers and participants for the amazing experience! ✨
