This repository contains data and documentation for the hackathon project.
This repository comprises data from a survey conducted in the United States in 2018:

In addition, it comprises associated passive browser tracking data, which is a subset of the data published here:
Munzert, Simon, Barberá, Pablo, Guess, Andrew M., & Yang, JungHwan (2022). Media Exposure and Opinion Formation in an Age of Information Overload (MEOF) – Webtracking on-site. GESIS, Cologne. ZA7896 Data file Version 1.0.0, doi.org/10.4232/1.13981.
The Media Exposure and Opinion Formation (MEOF) study is a multi-wave panel survey that was fielded between April 2018 and October 2019 in the United States. It was branded as “Politics & Media” survey (doi:10.4232/1.13980). The survey makes it possible to investigate political attitudes and behaviors, knowledge, online media consumption, and various issue attitudes of US citizens. In addition to survey data, the panel used passive metering technology to collect real-time data on web visits and mobile app use (not part of this publication). A similar survey was fielded in Germany as “Politik & Medien” Survey between June 2017 and October 2019 (see ZA7894, doi.org/10.4232/1.13979).
