[Ilse Pit @IlsePit]

I'm excited to share my first first-author paper!
Together with @HarmVeling and Johan Karremans we investigated whether using Facebook passively can promote feelings of social connectedness after ostracism.
A summary 🧵
(1/7)

[Media and Communication @CogitatioMaC]

2/ Using #Facebook actively after ostracism restores feelings of social connectedness; using Facebook passively does not. Passive Facebook use does not seem to harm social connectedness, contrary to past findings. https://t.co/oupgPkXoCp

[Dirk Wulff @dirkuwulff]

I am thrilled to share that the @dfg_public is financing my proposal, "Addressing the generalizability crisis with large language models," as part of the @meta_rep priority program.

I will soon announce openings for a PhD and a Postdoc position at @mpib_berlin (three years, starting early 2025) to work with me, @susafiedler, @marcel_binz, and @rui__mata on LLM applications aimed at improving generalizability in the behavioral and social sciences.

Please share and reach out if interested.

[Dirk Wulff @dirkuwulff]

🚨 New article 🚨

Open LLMs are powerful and reproducible alternatives to closed models like GPT or Gemini.

In this tutorial, we (@ZakASHussain, @marcel_binz, @rui__mata) explain how LLMs work and show how to apply open LLMs to behavioral science questions using the @huggingface ecosystem.
