Wheee, and that’s the final #ICA23 panel blogged: snurb.info/taxonomy/...

Signing off here, after a total of 21,000 words of liveblogging. More soon from some of the postconferences, and #IAMCR2024… 😵

Finally, please note that, while we presented a version of the paper at #ICA23, this is still a preprint. Thus, it still has to undergo peer review. If you have any questions or comments feel free to reach out to us. 🧵 End.

Pretty fantastic turnout for our 2 days of cross-timezone @icahdq #PolComm Division's WEBINAR FOR NEWCOMERS! 🐣📸
Thank you to all participants - we hope to see you all at #ICA23!

This morning, my partner told me I was talking in my sleep again. In English, even though my mother tongue is Dutch. Apparently, I “completely agreed”. Looks like I’m having quite some post #ica23 blues and the discussant in my dream made an interesting remark🧐

Seeing more and more Tweets of colleagues who are starting to test positive after #ICA23. I wish all of them a speedy recovery.
Please continue using #ICAcovidsafe for these kinds of tweets.

Inspiring conversations, amazing presentations, & a lot of friendly faces. On my way back from #ICA23 - but not before doing a bit of #BirdNoticing in #Toronto. 🇨🇦

#Masking is important but it’s never 100%, particularly since not all events surrounding a conf are possible while masking. Large confs can easily turn into #SuperSpreaderEvents. #Testing continues to be important to contain the spread. #ICAcovidsafe #ICA23 #CovidIsNotOver

#CanadianElectionStudy be like - “On a scale from 0 to 10, how likely is it that you will ever vote for this #raccoon?”🦝 #Toronto #ICA23

Last but not least at this amazing #ICA23, @andiisto presents her work w/ @solecheler & @SvenjaSchaefer. “How can AI help in content moderation strategies against uncivil user comments?” It might be her first conf presentation but it’s def not her last. 🎉 🙌 @polcom_vienna

And (almost) finishing #ica23 is @kathaesa presenting very timely and important work on definitions of polarisation, particularly introducing the concept of destructive polarisation.

I came, I saw, I was awkward

Thanks to everyone for a fantastic #ICA23—it was so great to see so many old friends and meet so many new ones!

Such a privilege to be part of this community 🥰

Just chaired a fabulous #ICA23 panel (online only, due to travel issues) on the role of digital platforms and their algorithms in the Ukraine war. I believe the recording of the session should be online somewhere on one of the ICA platforms soon.

Thank you for all your work on this Lukas!

@gregcsheen, @hanshtung, and @wu_wenchin

"Power Sharing and Media Freedom in Dictatorships."
#ICA23 #PolComm 👏

And she did it again 👏 Another great presentation by @Sina_TK22 (@ifkw_lmu) about the question: What comes after text automation? #ICA23

Fantastic work from @Ross_Dahlke and @yinizhang2011 examining gendered, heterogeneous, temporal effects on electoral loss

Women supporting the losing campaign posted more leading up to the election but saw a dramatic drop-off in engagement following the loss @ica_cm #ICA23

Enjoyed learning about this work from @chainsawriot benchmarking frame detection for multi topic news @ica_cm #ICA23

You can find the full slides here: http://chainsawriot.github.io/frameica23/#/title-slide

Really great work from @linzilinn looking at individual news diets on YouTube, using varied definitions of what constitutes “news”

Importantly, how “news” is defined can impact the substantive results, with particular variation by age, gender, and characteristics @ica_cm #ICA23

My dear colleague @Sina_TK22 is speaking about automated journalism in 🇬🇧 local newsrooms.

Very interesting findings from her PhD project @ifkw_lmu #ICA23

The paper (open access):

doi.org/10.1080/175127…

Excellent work from @caseyrandazzo—a rockstar PhD student at @RutgersCommInfo—comparing online citizen discourse (Facebook) to offline citizen discourse (town hall meetings)

There are some similarities but also important differences in how citizens talk in each setting #ICA23

Really loved this work from @marianneaubin looking at perceptions and impact of local Facebook groups

In addition to the substantive findings, this work presents a framework for individual-level community outcomes with varying information exposure #ICA23

Really interesting work from @MarkBoukes looking at measures of conversation quality

Rule-based approaches don’t tend to work well for measuring more abstract concepts, but combining multiple dictionaries can improve accuracy @ica_cm #ICA23
