Frederik Godt Hansen (@FrederikGodt ) researches citizens' trust in government and citizen-state interactions more broadly. Before joining @PA_SDU Frederik was a Postdoc at the Department of Psychology @aarhusuni. You can check out some of his work here: xitter.cf/FrederikGodt/status/16…
🚨Excited to share that my new paper on political trust and Brexit is now out #openaccess in @BJPoLS. In this paper, I introduce the idea that political trust is related to whether politicians are *efficient* in achieving promised policy objectives. 🧵 1/6

In new research out in @JPART1991, @_Oliver_James_ and I study whether public service users' responses to performance information reflect (directionally) motivated reasoning or if responses can be explained by Bayesian updating (from potentially incorrect prior beliefs).
