Great humor! X-mas greetings from ECREA:"With the Christmas period approaching, many researchers take advantage of the quieter days to focus on writing and refining their abstracts. If you’re planning to submit, the holiday break offers an ideal window to finalise your contribution." #happyHolidays

📢 Happy to see this #OpenAccess paper out in #Journalism! "From disruptive protests to disrupted news frames: Comparing German news on climate protests" with @mikefarjam.bsky.social, Helena Rauxloh & Michael Brüggemann

New publication out in Social Science Computer Review, with @mikefarjam.bsky.social (lead) and Meike Lohkamp: “A Practical Guide and Case Study on How to Instruct LLMs for Automated Coding During Content Analysis.” journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/... A thread 🧵:

New in Social Media + Society: How do (non-)disruptive #climate #protests shape social media debates? We analyzed ~5M Twitter/X posts on #FFF & #LetzteGeneration: Disruptive protests generate more engagement—but also more polarization, driven by right-wing/conservative users: doi.org/10.1177/2056...

Kicked off our #Fuel2Fire 🔥 project in Hamburg! In this cross-country collaboration, we're studying polarization across Europe — from meta discourse to polarizing topics & practices — with partners from Spain, Sweden, Poland & @netzwerkrecherche.org. #Polarization #Journalism
