𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐝𝐬: 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐆𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐭 𝐑𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭? Advertising is a billion-dollar industry. But do ads truly represent consumers, or just biased stereotypes about them? Our new study of 2.1M U.S. TV ads presents a new method to measure presence and stereotyping in ad content @clement-s-bellet.bsky.social

TIL @openaidevs.bsky.social will vehemently refuse to correct invoicing mistakes caused by *their own systems* even for Tier 5 users. The most hilarious part: their customer support chatbot promised that the invoice would be fixed and to notify me when the corrected invoice was ready (i.e.: never)

The results I presented at @diw.de last March are now in a shiny new working paper ✨ Are you organizing a conference, lecture, or social event? "Online" is a great option, but could it be hurting registration rates? In the mood for some observational causal inference? We got you: shorturl.at/b0r1m

Workshop on Digital Markets (WDM) 2025 is happening today and tomorrow, proudly presented to you by Tilburg & Erasmus University's Marketing and IS groups. I will be live-tweeting the amazing line-up of speakers and really cool discussants and participants. #WDM25

We start with Martina Pocchiari @martinapocchiari.com , on online review updating. Leveraging a field experiment from PissedConsumer (seriously), they aim to answer when to ask for an update: Early to increase the likelihood, or late to benefit from “time is an ultimate healer". Cool project!

On the way to #Berlin to present at the Digital Economy Workshop @diw.de @bsoeberlin.bsky.social On the agenda: ``Digitization and Community Participation'' w/@jmtroos.bsky.social, now featuring a new dataset covering 600K+ events, 400K+ individuals in 12K local communities in 2024 (200M+ rows...)

Angst, Stress & Depressionen nehmen zu. WZB-Forscher Francesco Capozza @walraslaw.bsky.social hat mit einem Online-Experiment untersucht, was die Akzeptanz psychologischer Unterstützung fördert kann. Kampagnen helfen, wenn sie zielgruppengerecht abgelegt sind. bibliothek.wzb.eu/artikel/2024...

@clement-s-bellet.bsky.social we're cooked... ...but meanwhile we keep working on allegedly very controversial research! We are writing an exciting paper on gender representation ✨using tons of prohibited words✨. Important now more than ever. Feel free to give it a read, when you feel rebellious.

I love that some statistician decided to call it "confusion matrix" because honestly same

If all the Bschool psych findings you know about are crumbling, you may have been reading quite narrowly and missed out on a lot of useful but not earth-shattering research that is relevant for people's actual lives.

To journalists covering these topics, a gentle suggestion: consider the role that journalism has played in this as well, the incentives that journalists have created, the search for "newsworthy" simple and flashy findings, the lack of space for nuance or uncertainty.

PSA:

Female content creators on YouTube received significantly more negative feedback for comparable content. But the removal of public display of dislikes eliminated this gender gap and persistently increased female creator productivity and consumer demand. sites.google.com/view/maritaf...

The method for self-verification on Bluesky with your own website is pretty easy: blueskyweb.xyz/blog/4-28-20... It should work for most academics who have a private website. Just did it and my new handle is now my domain name @andreassteinmayr.net.
