Meet the ISRII 2026 Speakers: What Evidence Persuades?
What Evidence Persuades?
What the social media debate reveals about evidence and causality in digital mental health
From social media regulation to AI-powered mental health tools, digital mental health researchers are shaping public and policy-relevant debates. But when research enters the public sphere, questions of evidence, causality and persuasion come sharply into focus.
This thought-provoking webinar featured two speakers from the upcoming ISRII 14th Scientific Meeting as they reflected on their experience conducting research that has moved beyond academia and into public, media, and policy-facing spaces.
