(1/2) "The effects of #climatechange are too far in the future to worry me." vs "The effects of #climatechange are too far in the future to worry about." 2️⃣ sentences differing in just 1️⃣ word yet with significant impact on surveys (33 %vs 40 % strong disagreement). 🧪

Findings from our recent publication in the Journal of Economic Psychology highlighted by @unitrier.bsky.social! @asoetevent.bsky.social, Gerard van den Berg and I study #wordingeffects in surveyed worries about #climatechange using a survey experiment in the @usociety.bsky.social Innovation Panel.

I can highly recommend joining this competition if you aim to integrate novel survey questions or survey experiments in your research! It's a particularly great resource for PhD students with limited research budgets

📢 The WiE Brown Bag Seminar Series continues! 🗓 August 1st, 12 PM Join us for the session featuring Lieke Voorinholt who investigates the effects of monetary compensation on paid volunteers, using evidence from Germany. She will present a joint work with Annalisa Tassi from FBK-IRVAPP in Trento.
