I'm excited to share my first first-author paper!
Together with @HarmVeling and Johan Karremans we investigated whether using Facebook passively can promote feelings of social connectedness after ostracism.
A summary 🧵
(1/7)
2/ Using #Facebook actively after ostracism restores feelings of social connectedness; using Facebook passively does not. Passive Facebook use does not seem to harm social connectedness, contrary to past findings. bit.ly/3wJnFLz

🚨 New article 🚨
Open LLMs are powerful and reproducible alternatives to closed models like GPT or Gemini.
In this tutorial, we (@ZakASHussain, @marcel_binz, @rui__mata) explain how LLMs work and show how to apply open LLMs to behavioral science questions using the @huggingface ecosystem.
