New paper with @masurphil.bsky.social in Human Communication Research! In a longitudinal panel study, we connect chilling effects research with the concepts of privacy cynicism and critical privacy literacy: doi.org/10.1093/hcr/...

Short 🧵 about what we found👇

At this year’s #MePsy25 conference in Duisburg, I presented a position paper about “small” media effects. While our field lacks objective criteria to decide when such effects are practically relevant, I proposed 5 criteria that can help deciding about relevance. Slides & paper on osf 👉 osf.io/d2ah7/

New paper with @nadinebol.bsky.social published in JCMC! We studied inequalities in users’ beneficial and harmful online experiences (3rd level digital divide) and combined this view with arguments about mistrust in online companies and self-inhibited behaviors. Short🧵👇

(3/4) Sat (3:00 pm), I have the honor to give 2 talks in the “NEKO-tiating Digital Boundaries” panel chaired by @tobiasdienlin.com. First, I'll present a study w/ @lutzid.bsky.social, Kimberly Garcia, Aurelia Tamò-Larrieux & Simon Mayer et al. about the effect(ivenes)s of the Visual Privacy tool.

(2/4) On Friday (9:00 am), I will be part of the “PURR-plexing Privacy” panel presenting a longitudinal study conducted together with @masurphil.bsky.social connecting the topics of digital surveillance, self-inhibition, privacy cynicism, and critical privacy literacy.

I’m very excited that Nadine Bol will be presenting our joint study about digital inequalities in positive and negative online experiences and chilling effects at #Etmaal2025 today🎉 if your’re there, pay her a visit😊

For the next two weeks, I'll be visiting the dep. of comm. science at the @vuamsterdam.bsky.social to work together with @masurphil.bsky.social on a longitudinal study about #privacy and #dataveillance. Is felt surveillance related to neg. consequences only or are there pos. ones too?
