CFA: The Social Life of Algorithmic Harms Academic Workshop
by Emanuel Moss 17 Nov '21

17 Nov '21

Hello AoIR, Data & Society is excited to announce our next online workshop's Call for Applications! Please add to your next announcement: About the Data & Society Academic Workshop Topic: The Social Life of Algorithmic Harms<https://datasociety.net/announcements/2021/10/28/the-social-life-of-algorit…> Hosts: Data & Society's AI on the Ground Initiative: Emanuel Moss and Jacob Metcalf When: Thursday, March 10 - Friday, March 11, 2022 Where: NYC and/or online (Note: We will make any adjustments to the proposed hybrid format by December 8th, based on CDC and community recommendations.) Application Deadline: Monday, November 29, 2021 Learn More/Apply: https://datasociety.net/announcements/2021/10/28/the-social-life-of-algorit… Tweet: https://twitter.com/datasociety/status/1455236352463810564 More information follows. Please contact CJ at events(a)datasociety.net<mailto:events@datasociety.net> with any questions. Who should apply? We are interested in work that centers lived experience, brings new disciplinary perspectives to bear on the identification and study of algorithmic harms, develops novel methodological approaches to describing and/or measuring the scope of such harms, and that expands the scope of our understanding of who and what may be harmed by the operation of algorithmic systems. We'll select drafts of papers, chapters, articles, and data mappings that are~75% complete, and that would benefit from interdisciplinary feedback. In addition to selecting Authors of works-in-progress, we'll select Participants to help workshop these projects. Ample time will be built in for networking and field building too -- something for everyone! Participants will also be offered a $150 stipend, pending eligibility. When we select Authors, we will ask: * Does the project contribute original or under-recognized narratives about algorithmic impact? * Does the project attend to how difference (race, gender, age, class, caste, location, etc.) plays a role in harms? Does it make global connections? Does it incorporate elements of citational justice or otherwise draw upon a diverse range of relevant prior work? * Does the project incorporate how the design and operation of algorithmic systems has differentiated consequences? * Can the work-in-progress and/or the career of the applicant benefit from feedback and connections made during the workshop? For both Authors and Participants, we'll ask: * Does the participation roster represent diverse perspectives, disciplines, and areas of expertise drawn from across academia, industry, government, advocacy, and civil society? * Is the applicant well-poised to participate in a conversation that posits a new theoretical vision of and research agenda for algorithmic harms? * Do proposed authors and participants bring a broad range of disciplinary interests, academic development, and social positionings? Do they demonstrate investment in meaningful feedback, opportunities for collaborations, and citational recognition? Again, applications<https://data-society.typeform.com/to/N3Qek1EC> are due by November 29, 2021, and we're happy to answer any questions you may have via events(a)datasociety.net<mailto:events@datasociety.net>. Thank you for helping us spread the word<https://datasociety.net/announcements/2021/10/28/the-social-life-of-algorit…>. All best, Emanuel, on behalf of Jacob and the workshop team

Population and Social Data Science Summer Incubator Program
by MPIDR - Career 17 Nov '21

17 Nov '21

+++ Apologies for cross-postings +++ The Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (MPIDR) is inviting applications from qualified and highly motivated students for a Summer Research Visit in the Lab of Digital and Computational Demography<http://demogr.mpg.de/en/laboratories/digital_and_computational_demography_5…>. The goal of the Population and Social Data Science Summer Incubator Program is to enable discovery by bringing together data scientists and population scientists to work on focused, intensive and collaborative projects of broad societal relevance. For a period of 3 months (June 1st - August 30th, 2022), participating students will work in small teams, with support from experienced mentors, towards a common research goal. For the Summer of 2022, the Incubator will be coordinated by Rumi Chunara (New York University and Max Planck Sabbatical Awardee), Emilio Zagheni, and Ugofilippo Basellini. This Summer, the focus of the program will be on risk prediction models, including concepts spanning demography, fragility, and social vulnerabilities. Participating students will be exposed to best practices across social and data sciences while contributing to a hands-on project experience. All participants will also have access to lectures and participate in other scientific activities happening at MPIDR. Applicants must be enrolled in a graduate or undergraduate program (at the time they visit MPIDR). The Incubator program values research teams that include early-career scientists from a range of disciplines and backgrounds, with complementary skill sets. Priority will be placed on bringing together a diverse pool of students. The total number of attendees will be defined based on resources and quality of applications. A number of mentors (with an approximate ratio of 3 students:1 mentor) will be solicited from MPIDR, NYU and other collaborators. The mentors, along with summer program coordinators, will provide seed project and data ideas, with flexibility for students to put forward their own ideas as well. Successful candidates will have demonstrated ability to work on research projects independently and in interdisciplinary teams, and interest in research problems related to both data science and social sciences, broadly defined. Applications must be submitted online via https://www.demogr.mpg.de/go/incubator and include the following documents: 1. Curriculum Vitae 2. Cover letter (Max 2 page) - Please state why you are interested in spending the Summer at MPIDR, and in which ways you would benefit from participating in the Incubator program. -Please articulate your research interests and briefly describe a project you have worked on, the motivation for it and your contribution. -Please describe your technical skills, as well what you would like to learn over the course of the Summer visit. 1. Names and contact information for 2 academic references In order to receive full consideration, applications should be received by January 15th 2022. Notifications will be sent out by March 1, 2022. This will be an in-person Summer program, and students will be expected to be in residence at MPIDR in Rostock for the period of the research visit, from June 1st- August 30th. Participants will be expected to devote most of their working time to the collaborative research project during that period. A hybrid approach will be considered in cases where travel is not possible due to extenuating circumstances. Selected students enrolled in a PhD program will be offered reimbursement for travel costs to/from Rostock, and a stipend. Selected students who are not enrolled in a PhD program will be offered reimbursement for travel costs to/from Rostock, a per diem, and lodging in Rostock. For administrative questions please get in touch with Beatrice Michaelis (michaelis(a)demogr.mpg.de<mailto:michaelis@demogr.mpg.de>). For scientific questions please contact Emilio Zagheni (Zagheni(a)demogr.mpg.de<mailto:Zagheni@demogr.mpg.de>), Ugofilippo Basellini (basellini(a)demogr.mpg.de<mailto:basellini@demogr.mpg.de>) or Rumi Chunara (rumi.chunara(a)nyu.edu<mailto:rumi.chunara@nyu.edu>). Our Institute values diversity and is keen to employ individuals from minorities. The Max Planck Society is committed to increasing the number of individuals with disabilities in its workforce and therefore encourages applications from such qualified individuals. Furthermore, the Max Planck Society seeks to increase the number of women in those areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourages women to apply. -- This mail has been sent through the MPI for Demographic Research.

Reminder: CFP for a Journal of Communication Special Issue - Social Media: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
by Nicholas John 17 Nov '21

17 Nov '21

Hello everyone, This is a reminder (or, I suppose, a minder, if you haven’t seen it before) that extended abstracts for the following CFP are due in just over two weeks. Good luck! Nik *** The Journal of Communication is inviting submissions, in the form of extended abstracts, for a special issue, titled "Social Media: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly”. The call appears below, and here: https://academic.oup.com/joc/pages/cfp-si-social-media-gbu The team of guest editors - which has a strong AoIR representation - is very keen to encourage submissions from a wide range of conceptual and methodological approaches. (This is a lightly coded way of letting qualitative researchers know to have a go at this one.) *** Journal of Communication Special Issue Social Media: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly The study of social media is pervasive not only within the field of communication (and its many subfields), but across the humanities and social-behavioral sciences. The who, what, where, when, why and how of social media are being approached from a wide range of theoretical angles grounded in diverse epistemologies. The resulting knowledge indicates social media represent the best and the worst of our own humanity. Our still fledgling, but ever evolving social media environments can generate inspiration, enlightenment, and empowerment and – at the same time – be coarse, jagged, unproductive and/or counterproductive spaces that prove difficult to navigate and manage. The title for the 1966 film “The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly” helps establish the theme for this special issue in that social media can be viewed as a mixture of all three of these characteristics. This film is set in a tense time defined by its hyper-polarization (i.e., American Civil War). Unfortunately, the same can be said for today’s real-world and virtual environments and not only in the US. This special issue is not seeking to resolve whether the social media platforms we have created should be viewed as the good, the bad, or the ugly. Instead, it seeks to bring together a series of insights that will allow scholars, practitioners, and the general public to develop a more nuanced understanding of the mediated communication environments that are becoming further integrated into our day-to-day lives. The guest editors are not defining what is deemed to be the good, the bad or the ugly of social media. Instead, it will be up to the submitting authors to indicate whether their proposals speak to one or a combination of these characteristics as studied in a wide variety of contexts. The special issue is open to all communication subfields, as well as work generated by scholars nested across the humanities and social-behavioral sciences. Proposed works can offer empirical data (qualitative or quantitative; within the latter we invite research that makes causal claims or tests directional hypotheses as well as that representing descriptive social science). We also welcome submissions that are adopting a critical studies, cultural studies, historical, rhetorical, or policy perspective. Submissions can utilize a wide variety of methods, from big data mining to meta- analysis to critical discourse analysis (to name but a few), as applied to a wide variety of datasets (e.g., large scale online behavioral data from social media platforms, existing macro-level data combined with aggregate statistics on social media use, small sample qualitative data from specific users or online communities, among others). Extended abstracts are due by December 1, 2021 (AoE). Submitters should cover the following in a main text maximum of two pages (double spaced, 1”/2.54cm margins, 12-point Times New Roman Font): (1) what communication phenomena will be the focus of the proposed work and how do these phenomena speak to social media being representative of the good, the bad and/or the ugly; (2) what work will be undertaken by the full manuscript deadline (along with any details concerning the feasibility of the endeavor); and, (3) an argument for why this work is important in terms of its theoretical, methodological, and social significance. Tables, figures, appendices and references do not count against the two-page main text limit. The timeline for the special issue is as follows: Extended Abstracts - 12-01-21 (AoE) Full Draft Invitations and Rejection Notifications - 01-15-22 Full Paper Submissions - 06-15-22 (AoE) Full Paper Decisions - 08-15-22 Full Paper Revisions - 10-01-22 (AoE) Final Accept-Reject Decisions - 11-30-22 Special Issue Publication - 02-01-23 (Volume 73, Issue 1) The guest editors for the special issue are as follows: Drs. Magdalena Wojcieszak (University of California-Davis), Jennifer Stromer-Galley (Syracuse University), Nicholas John (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem), Adrienne Massanari (American University) and R. Lance Holbert (Temple University). Please contact the editorial team at jcomsigoodbadugly(a)gmail.com with any immediate questions concerning this call for papers.
