New paper out, led by @KevinWinter91, with @KaiSassenberg on believing misinformation about wind farms. Biggest predictors is not education and science knowledge, but conspiracy mentality. Over 25% of respondents from US, UK and AUS agree with more than half of the statements.

[LottePummerer @LPummerer]

@KenzoNera @KevinWinter91 @KaiSassenberg Well, I am glad it didn‘t end up in a fight ;). And you all made it easy by already working on the discussion points beforehand (in commentaries etc)! Overall really cool thing!

[LottePummerer @LPummerer]

What a great way to start and end the preconference today! My take-away is that we need to be more precise in conception and definition of conspiracy belief -and have such discussions more often. thanks to all who attended & contributed today, esp @KevinWinter91& @KaiSassenberg

[Prof Aleksandra Cichocka @alekscichocka]

Starting my @easp2023krk with an exciting manel featuring @KenzoNera, @rolandimhoff, & @PolPsychKent’s Robbie Sutton on the usefulness of the idea of a conspiracy mentality wonderfully chaired by @LPummerer.

[LottePummerer @LPummerer]

@KenzoNera @rolandimhoff @JuliaEberlen @dingding_peng @DB_Bahn @DB_Presse Welcome to the club ;)

[LottePummerer @LPummerer]

@KenzoNera @rolandimhoff @JuliaEberlen @dingding_peng I will not take responsibility for anything from @DB_Bahn. Maybe @DB_Presse can clarify… I had never a full cancellation within germany (but yes, single trains get cancelled and it sucks). Cross-border seems even more complicated. Lots of construction.

[LottePummerer @LPummerer]

@olivier_klein I learned R through sites like datacamp. They became more (too?) expensive but I liked that they are hands-on from start (basically give you tasks that increase in complexity).Once you have a basic understanding best thing is using it, looking at other’s codes & grow with time :)

Im Internet sammeln #Impfgegner Todesfälle, die sie auf die #Corona-Impfung zurückführen - ohne Belege. Eine Analyse von mehr als 33.000 Posts unter #plötzlichundunerwartet zeigt: Dieses Spiel mit menschlichen Grundängsten wird künstlich befeuert. 👇https://t.co/U6pOU8qiIQ
