New work by @cuihaosabrina.bsky.social and
@tahayasseri.bsky.social is now available in Computers in Human Behavior Reports.

New preprint with Ruiqing (Rachel) Han &
@cuihaosabrina.bsky.social on how people evaluate AI managers. One finding surprised us: adding a face shifts evaluation from performance to social perception. Take note AI system designers: interface choices are not neutral. @tcdsociology.bsky.social

Chapter 6: @lauraknelson.bsky.social from UBC Sociology on computational inductive research.
The chapter makes a strong case that unsupervised methods don’t replace theory: they reshape how we generate & validate it.
Induction, abduction, deduction, combined with transparency & reproducibility.

Wikipedia is a fascinating case study in collective intelligence, and a rare example of the internet working as intended. @tahayasseri.bsky.social had a great conversation with @bernyoung.bsky.social on @ABC Radio Nightlife this week about Wikipedia as it turns 25. @tcdsociology.bsky.social

A few updates on our Grokipedia analysis: we expanded our sample to 20,000 most edited articles on Wikipedia. Linguistic & stylistic differences are the same as reported before (Generally, Grokipedia articles are longer, more difficult to read, and less referenced.)

This is an important and very well-written paper! I don’t usually praise papers I co-author, but in this case, Michele has done a stellar job! @tcdsociology.bsky.social and @researchireland.ie should be very proud of their PhD students!
