The grant funds a study to assess psychological reactions to the ongoing war in Ukraine among a nationally representative sample of over 6,500 Americans previously surveyed since March 2020 regarding the COVID-19 pandemic. The study will examine how factors...
This $188,094 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075) supports research on the social psychological factors shaping popular attitudes toward territorial concessions in peace agreements during and after the Russia-Ukraine war. George Mason University will conduct surveys and focus groups with 1,800 residents and internally displaced persons across three eastern Ukrainian towns near active conflict zones to examine how...
This National Science Foundation Project Grant of $200,000 awarded on February 1, 2022 will fund research to gather and analyze survey data on citizen perspectives regarding peace, security, and human rights in a post-conflict environment. Under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the University of Massachusetts will field three public opinion surveys in a post-conflict country using random domain intercept technology to collect anonymous samples. The...
This Project Grant award of $420,103 from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research that develops a model to explain how people judge public events like rallies and marches. The project tests theoretical mechanisms related to participants' social alliances, the event's alignment with observers' values and beliefs, and preferences for order and stability to predict responses to collective actions. A series of experimental...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $571,005 will fund research on the prevalence and effects of populist rhetoric on social media in democracies globally. Awarded on July 15, 2022 under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the grant will support the creation of a large cross-national dataset on political communication by major democratic parties on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram across approximately 80 countries. Researchers at Washington...
This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $200,000 to Duke University to conduct a cross-national study using generative artificial intelligence, social simulation models, and online experiments. The goal is to identify how social media algorithms can be redesigned to promote mutual understanding, increase trust, and reduce polarization. The research design involves training large language models...

This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program ($149,426) supports a comparative study of public opinion and elite rhetoric in the United States, United Kingdom, and Germany during the Russian invasion of Ukraine from May 2022 through April 2023. Led by researchers at Stony Brook University, the award allows for collection and analysis of survey and social media data to examine concepts like "rally around the flag" and "rally around democracy" effects among citizens in democratic countries experiencing an international crisis. Specifically, the grant funds multi-wave public opinion surveys fielded during and after the conflict to track views on political leadership and democratic principles, along with analysis of social media discourse by political elites in each country regarding their crisis response and management. By merging social media data with survey results, the researchers can contextualize participants' information environments. This project aims to enhance understanding of foreign policy opinion formation among mass publics and differences from elite rhetoric during wartime through an innovative concurrent mixed-methods design using a contemporary geopolitical event as a natural experiment.
