In our survey, @carlokoos.bsky.social and I examine Israeli perceptions of the humanitarian situation in Gaza—and reveal a striking gap between what Israelis believe and what is reported by reputable sources. theconversation.com/israelis-hav...
Israelis have a skewed view on extent of Gaza’s hunger plight − driven by censorship and media that downplay humanitarian crisis
Exposure to accurate reporting over the dire plight of people in Gaza resulted in 5% bump in those in Israel who supported aid convoys.

Great news from our twin-polisci department's Ruben Mathisen! Congratulations!!
🎆Article accepted in Journal of Politics!🎆

Public policy has responded more to the views of men than to the views of women in both the US and Norway over the past 50 years.

But, while this gender gap has disappeared over time in Norway, it has changed little in the US since the 60's.
