🚨 New paper accepted in @JPR_journal with the fantastic @philutsc! We look at the effects of hard visual propaganda messages in Venezuela. 🇻🇪 tl;dr hard propaganda messages also work in a crisis-ridden autocracy, regardless of as how strong respondents perceive the government.
Happy to share even more research on propaganda (osf.io/x7cav/), this time accepted work forthcoming in @JPR_journal. @karstendonnay and I explore how citizens in the crisis-ridden regime of 🇻🇪 perceive overt “hard” propaganda. #Propaganda #Autocracy #Venezuela (1/7)
