- This Project Grant award, valued at $200,000.00, was provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Federal Grant Program for Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075). The project, conducted by New York University (NYU), is examining the causal impact of social media usage on individual well-being and out-group animosity across multiple countries through a global field experiment. The research team is incentivizing a large sample of people to temporarily reduce...
- 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 $286,178 Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports research on how changes in information dissemination and consumption can impact strategic decision-making and the achievement of common goals. The project aims to develop new methodological tools to measure information similarity across individuals and analyze its effects on collective action problems, coordination games, and policy...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award for $544,082 supports research to examine the structural barriers and facilitators for translating academic research to inform public policy.

This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) provides $319,908 to the University of Pittsburgh to construct a database containing information on how public leaders at the national, state, and local levels communicate through social media and other public online forums. The database will capture measures of public figures' online transparency, responsiveness, and accessibility, which can be used by researchers, journalists, and internet companies to better understand public leadership communication. The investigators will also conduct experimental research to determine the relationship between online communications and public figures' responses, such as the timeliness of their responses during elections or emergencies. This project aims to provide data, tools, and illustrative research to help various stakeholders comprehend how prominent public figures engage online.
