6/7 Further, we present extensions that address polarized media environments and time-inconsistent individual preferences.

5/7 Two key applications illustrate the model:
(1) Hierarchical organizations: our results suggest balancing diversity and uniformity in employees’ preferences as a function of hierarchical distance.
(2) Political discrimination: Opposed advisors can balance biased policymakers.

4/7 In the solution to the strategic problem, the research learns about attributes she cares about and where misalignment is small enough. If the researcher expects an excessive response to new information, she forgoes learning altogether.

3/7 We derive the researcher's equilibrium learning strategy by solving an auxiliary single-player problem. The attribute weights in this problem depend on how much the researcher and the decision-maker disagree.

2/7 We model a scenario where a researcher learns about multiple attributes of an uncertain environment to influence a decision-maker. The key question: how do misaligned preferences impact both the extent and the direction of learning?
