Primes¶
- Emotional Contagion
- Conversely, a crowd-safety engineer's intuitions about how to design spaces and signage that prevent fear from cascading transfer to the design of social-media feed mechanics that resist runaway negative-affect spirals, a cross-application Ferrara and Yang (2015) explore in their measurement of emotional contagion on Twitter.
This sourceEmpirical measurement of affect propagation on Twitter (susceptibility classes, valence transfer) — supports the marker-374 cross-application of contagion-damping levers to feed design.

Ferrara and Yang measure emotional contagion on Twitter with a null-model analysis; they do not explore feed-design interventions or any re-engineering of the platform.
“In this study, we use Twitter as case study, and explore the hypothesis of emotional contagion via the social stream.”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
