This $389,385 Project Grant award, issued on June 15, 2025 by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), aims to develop methods and tools to help real-time social media community leaders better facilitate audience engagement and adherence to community norms. The research will involve modeling audience behaviors and creating guidance and intervention mechanisms to encourage participant conduct that aligns with community goals. The project also seeks to develop auditing mechanisms to identify potential biases in the facilitation decisions made by community leaders and the tools they use, while providing ways for community members to contest those decisions. This work is being conducted by the University of California, San Diego to advance scientific knowledge around building strong online communities and provide educational and outreach opportunities in computer science, interaction design, and real-time social media.
