Yes.
Do funny or creative titles get more citations? A recent study explores how different features of article titles impact citation rates. We used @sci_summary to summarise the key findings #ad Let’s dive into the paper by Heard, Cull, & White (2023). 🧵👇

Really interesting! Academia generally ignores the effect people have on others' research. Someone who increases everyone else's productivity is not recognized or rewarded. But they should be.

@ElaineLiuEcon My son who teaches at a fancy high school told me that fancy high schools are all doing this. I get these emails from just a few schools. But I just don't have time, and it is not my job, esp when they are not potential recruits (want to go somewhere better).

That's a lot of interventions. (And a lot of authors). (And a lot of funding sources.).
How can we reduce partisan animosity? A massive new study @ScienceMagazine tests 25 interventions (N = 32,059) and finds some key lessons: 1) Highlight positive intergroup contact 2) Emphasize common identities and shared norms
