We have some interesting pilot results—stay tuned for what’s coming next!🥂
Which countries do citizens see as credible models for reform?
I’m presenting pilot data @lundsuniversitet.bsky.social today:

🚨 New tool to classify text into discrete emotions! I have fine-tuned a mDeBERTa model based on crowd-coded data described in my Political Analysis study (see link below). Unlike the ELECTRA model discussed in the paper, this new tool is MULTILINGUAL (up to 100 languages)
