🇬🇧 The UK plans to introduce voting at 16. 🇦🇹 Austria introduced it 18 years ago. Reposting the thread summarising our recent research re-evaluating evidence on the Austrian case. TL;DR: No big boost in engagement, but no harm either. Voting at 16 facilitates inclusion, and that matters in itself.

Great, i can definitly recommended! 😊

I had a wonderful time at #AERA 2025 in Denver! It provided incredible insights into current #emotions, #motivation, #intervention, and #civics education research. I am particularly thankful for many conversations and the opportunity to share research on motivational processes and development 😊

A thread about being wrong: 5 years ago, we wrote a paper about how how newly enfranchised 16-year-olds vote in Austria. But we were wrong. This year, @elisabethgraf.bsky.social, @schnizzl.bsky.social, Sylvia Kritzinger and I are setting the record straight: authors.elsevier.com/c/1juT5xRaZk...

Und nochmal für die deutsche Bubble: haben Wahlumfragen - genau genommen die Darstellung von "Schwankungsbreiten" - einen Einfluss auf Wahlentscheidungen von Bürger*innen? Ja, vor allem wenn die Umfrage knapp ist und Journalist*innen das auch korrekt interpretieren. 📊🗳️👇 polisky commsky polcom
