This federal Project Grant award, valued at $606,480.00 and provided by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program, supports research examining the impact of social media use on the mental health and academic achievements of adolescents. The research team at the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) will conduct an experimental study, randomly assigning adolescents to a treatment group that receives incentives to reduce social...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports a 2-year postdoctoral fellowship to investigate the causal impact of social media on psychological outcomes. The postdoctoral fellow, under the sponsorship of Dr. Jay Van Bavel at New York University, will conduct a field experiment to examine how temporarily reducing social media usage affects variables such as intergroup attitudes, well-being, and news...
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 award, funded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), aims to better understand and address problematic online behaviors and their impact on user well-being in social media. The $399,988 award, effective June 15, 2025 through May 31, 2029, will support research focused on three core objectives: Developing predictive models for early detection of problematic online behaviors and assessing their...
This Project Grant award of $100,000.00 from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research to better understand and address problematic online behaviors, such as cyberbullying, that impact users' mental health and well-being on social media platforms. The key components of the research include: 1) developing predictive models for early detection of problematic online behaviors, 2) designing new social media features...
