I am very happy and relieved that this paper is finally published. It is the last study of my PhD project (I got my PhD six years ago). There were many delays and setbacks (e.g., a rejection after a promising R&R). If that sounds familiar to you, know that you are not alone.

Do moral populist appeals foster illiberal attitudes? @momashaly_ presented our study with @LindaBos80 and @alessandro_nai at @ne_fca #etmaal (great job giving your first conference presentation!). We used Chat GPT to detect anger in open-ended statements in a survey experiment.

Instagram and TikTok are popular with younger people. Media companies have therefore increased their presence on these platforms.📱But what about the quality of this content? We investigated this question together with @DoWi87, @FlorinZai and @AUrman21.
