🚨NEW PREPRINT🚨 Excited to have contributed to this encyclopedia entry on filter bubbles, the myth, the legend, and the first political communication concept I ever explored during my studies. Huge thanks to @marikyu7 and @alice_tut for having me as a co-author on this piece! :)

🌟 New paper with @Sacha_Altay & @mwojcieszak 🌟 Happy to tell a positive story here: we show that, with the right incentives, social media can be a powerful tool for promoting informed and engaged citizenship 📰🗞️
🚨 New paper 🚨 Can we benefit from news on social media, or is it all bad? Our field experiment on WhatsApp & Instagram in 🇫🇷🇩🇪 (N = 3,395) shows that following 2 news accounts for 2 weeks increases news knowledge, discernment, awareness, and trust. 👉 https://t.co/CqxTcJv94B

I got a lot of questions about getting involved. My answer: - Students, become ICA volunteers! - Keep an eye on @ICASECAC - Attend smaller spaces in the community: post/pre-conferences, workshops, etc - If you see spaces that are still needed in our community, organize them!
