My go-to networks person is Bill McEvily at U Toronto but this looks a little different from what I understand of that work. Cool stuff!

I have some quibbles with the idea that authorities can estimate public trust and some pieces of the experiment but I buy finding a correlation between government support for harm reduction and trust in government. Not sure if it would survive explicit conservative pushback though.

Tyler told me to attend to treatment over outcome. Mayer introduced me vulnerability while Holling showed me balance. Ostrom asked me to trust the people, and Baldwin reminded me why we can’t always do that.

I was hoping more people would ask to be added :/

Absolutely fair, but the paper draws attention to increases in trust in science on the left so my comment was aimed there.

(I neglected to include the title in my original post—very important context that I dropped…)

It’s just my musing. They find the levels of trust diverge, in part, because liberal trust in science is increasing. It could be that science is more trustworthy, but I read it as a motivated response of reporting higher trust because it is under threat.
