„Forschung ist kein Selbstzweck. Forschung muss zu Wertschöpfung, Produktion und Innovation in Deutschland und in Europa führen“, so der @bundeskanzler. Die Wissenschaftsfreiheit, wie sie Art. 5 Abs. 3 GG und das Bundesverfassungsgericht verstehen, setzt einen anderen Maßstab. 🧵 1/n

Unsere Ergebnisse aus @motra.bsky.social zu islamismusaffinen Einstellungen haben in den letzten Wochen viel Aufmerksamkeit erhalten - nicht nur im positiven Sinn. Ich habe dazu einen Text geschrieben, der mediale Darstellung & wissenschaftliche Kritik aufgreift und diskutiert: 👉 shorturl.at/lbw60

I ran a simple model with new public data then used 1 prompt to make ChatGPT guess what the model would produce. With 10 seconds of "thinking," it was very close. The implications of this are catastrophic. The American Sociological Association should do something about this but it doesn't care to /1

A new publication at www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... We find that religious markers (esp. beards) can reduce perceived trustworthiness in Turkey. (That's why you often see me clean shaven ;-)

📝 Research from Turkey finds that visible religious markers like headscarves & beards can reduce perceived trustworthiness among strangers 🤝 This held even among highly religious respondents - challenging the idea that these markers signal trust. 🔗 www.sociology.ox.ac.uk/article/reli...

I do want to shout-out my fellow sociologists, who have collectively created a discipline so woke that not a single one of our introductory textbooks can make it past Florida's censors. Great work everyone.

The Board of Governors decided, unilaterally, that no published textbook in the field of sociology could be used in compliance with the law for an Intro to Sociology class. None. Victor: There's not a single existing textbook on the market that could be used that would qualify under state law? Zachary: Correct. Victor: I'm sorry, that's kind of funny. Like, the absurdity of not a single sociology textbook getting past the censors. I mean, it makes me kind of proud of our colleagues, but...

"Letztlich hat Antisemitismus weniger was mit Jüdinnen und Juden zu tun als mit Antisemit:innen oder Menschen, die eben an solche Vorstellungswelten glauben", so @janrathje.bsky.social von CeMAS in der sehenswerten Arte-Dokumentation "Weltkarriere einer Lüge". Aktuell in der Mediathek abrufbar:

One of the giants of social psychology was a serial sexual harasser. This new report reveals how Miles Hewstone touched, bullied, and sexual harassed numerous women during his 18 years at the University of Oxford. It's amazing how often bullying and sexual harassment go together in academia.

“We focus too much on producing more, publishing more, being everywhere. But the question is: are you saying something in your own voice, or just adding to the noise? Protect your voice, that’s what lasts.” Inspiring interview!

Writing isn’t just about what you say, it’s about what you refuse to lose in the process. Read my conversation with Cas Mudde on writing, voice, and resisting conformity in academia, in the media, and on the page. 🔗 catherineeunicedevries.substack.com/p/etched-in-... 🧵
