Why do Americans have such animosity for people who identify with the opposing political party? In her work, Dr. Jaime Settle argues that in the context of increasing partisan polarization among American political elites, the way we communicate on Facebook uniquely facilitates psychological polarization among the American public. Scrolling through the News Feed triggers a cascade of processes that result in negative attitudes about those who disagree with us politically. Polarization, however, is not a solely American phenomenon. In Germany, too, social media users are rifting apart.Lecture & Discussion (incl. Snack) with:Dr. Jaime Settle received her B.A. in topics related to political behavior, psychology, and communication.
