🚨Alerta de publicação! @patyrossini.bsky.social liderou um novo artigo comigo e @antoniskalog.bsky.social investigando os efeitos da desinformação eleitoral sobre a intolerância política nas eleições brasileiras de 2022.
Este estudo examina a relação entre desinformação e intolerância política durante a Eleição de 2022 no Brasil. Usando uma pesquisa em três ondas, mostramos que cidadãos que acreditam em alegações falsas sobre fraude eleitoral se tornam mais intolerantes com oponentes políticos ao longo do tempo. A crença em desinformação eleitoral consistentemente previu aumentos na intolerância no decorrer da eleição. Encontramos um efeito indireto do uso de aplicativos de mensagens para notícias e intolerância, mediado pela crença em desinformação eleitoral, sugerindo que cidadãos que dependem de aplicativos de mensagens para notícias são mais suscetíveis a acreditar em desinformação e também aos seus efeitos prejudiciais à democracia. Essas descobertas destacam a desinformação eleitoral como um fator-chave de atitudes intolerantes em democracias polarizadas, operando não apenas ao corroer a confiança nas instituições, mas também ao minar o compromisso dos cidadãos com as normas democráticas.

Yay new publication day! Last year, Larissa Hjorth, Peta Murray and I looked into older adults' animal pet image sharing practices. We found while there are myriad reasons, many of them revolve around kinship. Paper is open access so please share and cite widely: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...
