**WHY IS TRUST IN SCIENCE POLITICALLY POLARIZED?** Political stereotypes about scientists decisively shape the link between people's #politicalorientation and their #trustinscience. New publication with @wingentobias.bsky.social & Anna Schulte. #scicomm #polarization🧵1/7 doi.org/10.1177/1075...

Our new paper in @Nature evaluates the accuracy of social and behavioral policy recommendations during COVID19 (from www.nature.com/articles/s41...) We reviewed 747 papers (mean N = 16,848) and found evidence for 89% of our central claims: www.nature.com/articles/s41... Led by @ruggeri.bsky.social
