Charlie Dorison reported experiments from the field and the lab suggesting that shorter messages are often better, but there are caveats:

Shorter messages
- improved recall, etc.
- undermined perceived importance

- Snail #mail usually better than #email or text messages
- Letters > postcards

Jennifer Dannal's talk was too popular for me to see — no room to sit or stand!

I didn't find an online preprint about the presentation, but Dr. Dannal's on gScholar if you want to find out when it's published:

@keremoktar.bsky.social reported data and a model of belief persistence:

People were most likely to question their view
- about objective facts
- via reliable informants
- when belief change wasn’t costly

Kerem and this paper are on gScholar: https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=wBVlDlYAAAAJ&sortby=pubdate&citation_for_view=wBVlDlYAAAAJ:ufrVoPGSRksC

Impressively cool attitude to arriving just before his talk and a clever way of 'buying time' by engaging with the audience, providing examples for his talk, while trying to put up his slides. Nice talk too. The whole session was great.
