Yes @UW_LSC will post the link when the talk is available

Finally we need new models of media effects argues @scheufele #uwlsc700 see http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/15205436.2015.1068811 …

Another issue: how can we promote civil debates in new media environments? @scheufele #uwlsc700

science information-seeking behaviors are different depending on the context - see http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1540-6237.2011.00814.x/full … @scheufele #uwlsc700

Issue that #scicomm researchers need to address: how can we get people to not engage in motivated reasoning? @scheufele #uwlsc700

Bad #scicomm is worse than no #scicomm at all - it can backfire @scheufele #uwlsc700

Data shows that "proving vaccination opponents wrong" with more information backfires @scheufele #uwlsc700

The notion of "motivated reasoning" is not new, but we have failed to integrate it when we think #scicomm explains @scheufele #uwlsc700

The tribe we are in influences how we use information and determine the facts we pay attention to, says @scheufele #uwlsc700

Famous 1960-70 work by Asch on conformity highly relevant to the science context @scheufele #uwlsc700

The problem of "filter bubbles" and echo chambers matters for science @scheufele #uwlsc700 #scicomm

Metrics are now driving news placement and selection: popular taste is the driver @scheufele #uwlsc700 #scicomm

the whole "fake news" outrage is ridiculous says @scheufele it is not a new problem #uwlsc700

We talk, live, interact with people who are like us, hence we hear what we already believe about science @scheufele #scicomm #uwlsc700

Not knowing what science says about the world is not the same as refusing to embrace what science says, argues @scheufele #uwlsc700

Most of us know little about science and its policy implications, shows @schefeule #uwlsc700 #scicomm
