New tutorial on a core CSS problem: Text classification often treats "is this valid" and "does this model work" as separate questions hurting measurement quality. We propose "computational social mixed methods" to unify annotation, ML & stats into one coherent pipeline: doi.org/10.3758/s134... 🧵

Here's my new blogpost on the dataset I have created alongside @ksolovev.com: we decided to solve the issue of data availability for research on news articles by processing, cleaning, tagging and indexing the whole news subset of the Common Crawl, resulting in cs2.uni-graz.at/blog/infini-...

How can we use computational methods to re-define psychological constructs? A team of researchers from the University of Jaén used my Construct Mining Pipeline to expand existing frameworks of job crafting - the way employees shape their work environment. Read more here: doi.org/10.1007/s111...

I have always felt like an imposter teaching others to code. So this is a very sincere "what an inspiring session", thank you post. Speakers: @palencianoap.bsky.social @hailina.bsky.social @cecibaldoni.bsky.social Thank you for sharing your experience as women who code. Some highlights🧵

One way to deal with hate on social media is top-down moderation. Another option is counter speech, the collective moderation by citizens. A study of German Twitter from 2015–2019 identifies effective counter speech strategies—including sarcasm. In PNAS Nexus: https://ow.ly/csZK50XGteK

@uni-graz.at featured our brand-new article on collective moderation of online spaces published in @pnasnexus.org 🥳 Wanna read what citizen-based strategies can be a remedy against online hate? Click here: ow.ly/csZK50XGteK @janalasser.bsky.social @aroyehuns.bsky.social @dgarcia.eu

🤬 „Merkel zeigt, Frauen gehören nicht in die Politik!“, Aussagen wie diese gehören zu den über eine Million Tweets aus den Jahren 2015-2018, die ein Forschungsteam der #unigraz rund um @hailina.bsky.social und @janalasser.bsky.social analysiert hat. Was gegen Online-Hass hilft, liest du hier 👇

I graduated 🎓🥳 Rewatch my talk on "Computational Approaches to Human Behavior" where I introduce two of my works on emotion regulation and hate speech. 📺 Watch the video: youtu.be/-bh6McTZN4U?... 📘 View the slides & thesis: cloud.uni-graz.at/s/p3STMtKGPMdq

Are you interested to dive deeper into bridging #psychology and natural language processing #nlproc? We are organizing a new workshop (collocated with icwsm.org in Copenhagen, taking place on June 23. Paper deadline is March 21st. More information: nlpsi-workshop.github.io

Which celebrities are the most popular and unpopular on social media? We are working on a new Holiday Paper Series article on that! We are changing to a Summer schedule for the HPS. On the meantime, here is a teaser for Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, and Britney Spears: dgarcia.eu/CSS_Holiday_...

I went to the Museum of Modern Art today and other than enjoying the beautiful paintings and installations from real artists, I followed their instructions to create a poster with a message for my community in their creativity lab 🙃 Enjoy!

First paper from our lab on LLMs and emotional support (led by @joannazli): Skill but not effort drive GPT overperformance over humans in cognitive reframing of negative scenarios. Short thread of the results 1/7   osf.io/preprints/ps... #Psychology #AcademicSky #SocialPsyc

I presented at the conference of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP), San Diego. Thanks everyone for your great interest! If you want to know more about constructing data-driven taxonomies using computational methods visit hai-lina.github.io. #SPSP2024

In case you were wondering where I am currently spending my research time: I am happy to be part of Harvard's Digital Emotions Lab @Harvard's D3 led by Amit Goldenberg. Check it out: www.amitgoldenberg.com Great people and researchers 🤗
