Long ties accelerate noisy threshold-based contagions
Global survey on Covid-19 beliefs, behaviours and norms
Shared Partisanship Dramatically Increases Social Tie Formation in a Twitter Field Experiment
Americans are much more likely to be socially connected to co-partisans, both in daily life and on social media. But this observation does not necessarily mean that shared partisanship per se drives social tie formation, because partisanship is confounded with many other factors. Here, we test the causal effect of shared partisanship on the formation of social ties in a field experiment on Twitter. We created bot accounts that self-identified as …
Bootstrap Thompson Sampling and Sequential Decision Problems in the Behavioral Sciences
Behavioral scientists are increasingly able to conduct randomized experiments in settings that enable rapidly updating probabilities of assignment to treatments (i.e., arms). Thus, many behavioral science experiments can be usefully formulated as sequential decision problems. This article reviews versions of the multiarmed bandit problem with an emphasis on behavioral science applications. One popular method for such problems is Thompson sampling…
Randomized Experiments to Detect and Estimate Social Influence in Networks
Envisioning persuasion profiles
Public policy increasingly plays a role in influencing the work that we do as HCI researchers, interaction designers, and practitioners. "Public policy" is a broad term that includes both government policy and policy within non-governmental organizations, such as standards bodies. The Interacting with Public Policy forum focuses on topics at the intersection of human-computer interaction and public policy. Jonathan Lazar, Editor
