SUMMARY:Gauging Political Communication with Social Media Data: Research Frontier\, Tools\, and Caveats
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Haohan Chen\n\nPostdoctoral Fellow\, Center for Social 
 Media and Politics\, New York University\nAssistant Professor\, Politics & 
 Public Administration. University of Hong Kong\n\nSocial media data help 
 political scientists and policymakers understand the behavioral patterns of 
 political communication. Consider these questions: How do citizens in 
 authoritarian countries face censorship and perform self-censorship? How 
 and why does the American public have a growing dislike or distrust of 
 people from the other party? How does the public update their beliefs about 
 COVID-19 in response to elite pronouncement and media reports? In his 
 talk\, Dr. Chen will introduce how social media data\, empowered by data 
 science toolkits\, can help gauge political communication. The talk will 
 consist of two parts. The first part introduces Dr. Chen’s research 
 projects on self-censorship and political polarization with social media 
 data. The second part introduces tools to collect and analyze social media 
 data for opinion studies\, with a critical evaluation of their limitations 
 and best practices.\n\nHosted by the Center for Social Sciences and the 
 Data Science Program.
