📣 New pub - Open Access Together w/ @tgrootkormelink.bsky.social & Tessel Bogaard, I introduce Native Experience Sampling (NESM) as a method that complements behavioral analytics by capturing the experiential quality of news (Time Well Spent), not just how much time they spend with it (Time Spent).

In this new study, we find young adults don’t manage media by platform but by purpose: being in the loop, maintaining connection, and zoning out. They balance informational, emotional and social needs, and make moral distinctions between "good" and "bad" media. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Is there a place for (professional) news on TikTok? Based on 99 interviews w/ young people, I.Costera Meijer, @kenzalamot.bsky.social & I find that adapting to the platform risks diluting journalism’s distinctive value and blurring it with less reliable content ⬇️ www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

We had a fabulous roundtable discussion with @anjabechmann.bsky.social @dscheykopp.bsky.social @tgrootkormelink.bsky.social @jiarut.bsky.social here at #aoir2025 that concluded with a thought exercise: "It's 2030 & data donation is the dominant data gathering paradigm, what must we get right today?"

Data donation is hot, but do participants understand what they consent to? Using think-aloud protocols and interviews, we found many missed key features like searching and deleting data. To improve informed consent, we suggest adding (some) friction through play ⏯️ www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
