Details

There are two files in this repository.

The first shows how we generated results for our first research question (rq1_analyses.R).

The second is a jupyter notebook (with an R kernel), rq2_analysis.ipynb that shows our analyses for our second research question.

Data Availability

Given the potentially revealing nature of our data, we have restrictions on our ability to share it. Specifically:

• We cannot share any of the data on the panel of Twitter users linked to voter records
• For the scraped reply data from the simulated accounts, data is available, but only upon request (and in an anonymized fashion!)

Looking for the scraping tools?
