@jorosmith That doesn't surprise me! Students are still calling us, "Miss" where as they call our male colleagues, "Professor/Dr"...

Our findings suggest that #extremist #influencers increase the rate of #polarization due to both #ideologicalextremitization & #psychologicaldistancing, regardless of the society’s openness to others' #beliefs. @jb1313mbl @a_mBliuc

[Ana-Maria Bliuc @a_mBliuc]

Our article on #polarization and the role of #influencers with @jb1313mbl & @MioCristea is out today, please have a look! We discuss our findings based on #AgentBasedModelling of an ideologically divided society.
