- Abstract: Social media users share their ideas, thoughts, and emotions with other
users. However, it is not clear how online users would respond to new research
outcomes. This study aims to predict the nature of the emotions expressed by
Twitter users toward scientific publications. Additionally, we investigate what
features of the research articles help in such prediction. Identifying the
sentiments of research articles on social media will help scientists gauge a
new societal impact of their research articles.

We argue that it is critical to understand what user attributes potentially cause users to share fake news.
In fake news dissemination, confounders can be characterized by fake news sharing behavior that inherently relates to user attributes and online activities.
We propose a principled approach to alleviating selection bias in fake news dissemination.

We introduce an operational definition of echo chambers and perform a massive comparative analysis on 1B pieces of contents produced by 1M users on four social media platforms.
We infer the leaning of users about controversial topics and reconstruct their interaction networks by analyzing different features.
We find support for the hypothesis that platforms implementing news feed algorithms like Facebook may elicit the emergence of echo-chambers.

We present a novel way of weighting click-based reactions that increases their comprehensibility.
We use our metrics along with LDA topic models and statistical testing to investigate how users' emotional responses differ from one scientific topic to another.
We find that there is generally a positive response to scientific research on Facebook, and that articles generating a positive emotional response are more likely to be widely shared.
