Assistant professor at Michigan State University studying attention, cognition, and digital media. 🔗: jacobtfisher.comhttps://bsky.app/profile/jacobtfisher.onlinehttps://bsky.app/profile/jacobtfisher.online/post/3mhdvhmdcos2zHey y'all! Very pleased to announce that we'll be hosting Communication Science Futures again in East Lansing later this year. The conference in 2024 was a blast, and we're looking forward to running it back! Keynote speaker: James Pennebaker Submission deadline: June 5th. → commscifutures.com https://commscifutures.com/18 Mar 2026 16:22 +0000at://did:plc:tpual3hvucosgexanwpbqbtf/app.bsky.feed.post/3mhdvhmdcos2zhttps://bsky.app/profile/jacobtfisher.online/post/3m6xthcfg4227Very cool study! Happy to see someone is actually studying this. My anecdotal experience aligns as well. Framing overuse/compulsive use of screens as "addiction" robs people of their agency and masks the issues we should actually be talking about (adversarial design tactics, attention economy, etc).

Out of breath but totally worth it!15 Jun 2025 16:18 +0000at://did:plc:tpual3hvucosgexanwpbqbtf/app.bsky.feed.post/3lrnulg63nc2xhttps://bsky.app/profile/jacobtfisher.online/post/3lrincsx22s24Can we kick off #icacoffee for #ica25 on here? First on the docket for me is Huckleberry Coffee Roasters. About .5mi from the hotel but definitely worth the walk. https://maps.app.goo.gl/ncBAAchbFJzihhZj8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy13 Jun 2025 14:25 +0000at://did:plc:tpual3hvucosgexanwpbqbtf/app.bsky.feed.post/3lrincsx22s24https://bsky.app/profile/jacobtfisher.online/post/3lrdozuwig22bKicking off our fourth(!) annual #hackica this year at @colorado.edu. This is always the highlight of ICA. Super excited to get hacking! #hackica2511 Jun 2025 15:13 +0000at://did:plc:tpual3hvucosgexanwpbqbtf/app.bsky.feed.post/3lrdozuwig22bhttps://bsky.app/profile/jacobtfisher.online/post/3lprwmwi3qk2pAs someone who is actually on this paper, this critique (and many others) is absolutely spot-on. I can't speak for other authors, but this process has left me with far more questions than answers. The gap between what the data say and how it's being framed publicly is...notable to say the least.
