Social Media Polarization and Echo Chambers in the Context of COVID-19: Case Study

Social Media Polarization and Echo Chambers in the Context of COVID-19: Case Study

To remove biases from potential bots infiltrating the data set [23], we calculated bot scores using the methodology of Davis et al [24], which estimates a score from 0 (likely human) to 1 (likely bots), and removed the top 10% of users by bot scores as suggested by Ferrara [23]. Our final data set contained 232,000 users with 1.4 million retweet interactions among them. The average degree of the retweet network was 6.15.
