The Politics of the “Non-Political”
Recent literature has documented a growing entanglement between political processes and many nonpolitical entities. This calls into question the traditional presupposition of politics as a self-contained sphere, highlighting the need to clarify how the conceptual relationship between the political and the nonpolitical has been established. In line with a relational understanding of politics, we provide a boundary analysis by looking at the “non-p…
Disentangling the Three Facets of Mass Ideological Polarization
Public opinion research has intensively examined mass ideological polarization, often linking it to outcomes that threaten key democratic ideals. Both theory and empirical evidence suggest that it comprises multiple manifestations, with their relationships, however, remaining largely unclear. Meanwhile, previous studies have seldom conducted cross-contextual comparisons, which are essential for understanding how macrostructural factors shape mass…

Local news on social media usually attracts a translocal audience beyond geographic boundaries, raising questions about its impact on news engagement. Prior studies have examined the structural role of geography in online discussions, but little is known about its influence on the quality of news comments. Drawing on the issue public literature and the framework of locality in digital public spheres, this study examines the impact of translocal a…

Drawing on nationally representative …

Methods Utilizing the data from World Values Survey (WVS) and the other sources, this study conducts a multi‐level analysis involving 75,721 respondents …
Civilizing social media
Many social media affordances can affect the quality of online discourse, but such an effect remains understudied for the visibility of geolocation, which is available on most social media platforms. We looked at the event in which Weibo started to display users’ IP locations on 28 April 2022, which was supposed to reduce incivility as the deindividuation hypothesis predicted. Leveraging a natural experiment, we examined the effect of IP location…
Non-Linear and Sex-Specific Effect of Maternal Pre-Pregnancy BMI on Emotional and Behavioral Development of Preschool Children

Maternal pre-pregnancy BMI was calculated from the maternal pre-pregnancy height and weight measured at the first antenatal checkup. Main caregivers completed the Str…
Diversité sociale et sémantique
Nous proposons une nouvelle méthode pour l’extraction de termes multi-mots à partir de publications scientifiques. Notre stratégie est fondée sur la combinaison de deux approches : une première liste de termes « candidats » est d’abord extraite à partir de critères de fréquence et de spécificité. Cette liste est ensuite classée suivant la position du terme dans le Résumé : (en ayant recours à un étiquetage de la valeur « argumentative » des phras…
