Scatter Plot from Scientific Research

Data come from a balanced sample of n = 99,274 academics observed from 2016 to 2022. Stances (negative to positive) were classified by GPT-based methods and aggregated per academic from up to three tweets per month. Each panel plots the mean stance (-1 to +1) on climate action, techno-optimism, or behavioural adjustment for different academic subgroups. Circles show group means; error bars are 95% confidence intervals computed via s.e.m. In each panel, the dotted vertical line represents the overall academic average (the Main group mean) for that stance, serving as a baseline for subgroup comparisons. Methods detail sampling (ensuring each academic tweets at least once early and late in the period) and stance detection.
