However, studies disagree on whether they reproduce human behaviour faithfully. The authors examine this for social networks, where simulation could reveal how platform design choices such as ranking or filtering affect… 2. **[Towards Simulating Social Media Users with LLMs: Evaluating the Operational Validity of Conditioned Comment Prediction](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/schwager-2026-simulating-social-media-users-llms/)** *(2026 · 1 citation)* The paper asks whether LLMs used as stand-ins for real people in social science can reproduce how specific individuals behave online, rather than just producing comments that look plausible. 3. **[Next Reply Prediction X (NRP-X) Dataset: Linguistic Discrepancies in Naively Generated Content](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/munker-2026-next-reply-prediction-x-nrp/)** *(2026)* Social scientists increasingly use LLMs as stand-ins for human participants. When models are simply prompted without behavioral constraints, their writing may differ from real users' in ways that undermine research validity. The authors build NRP-X, a resource for testing this on authentic X (formerly Twitter) data… ## Co-authors here 4 co-authors with a page, the most papers together first. - [Achim Rettinger](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/achim-rettinger/) ×3 - [Simon Münker](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/simon-munker/) ×3 - [Alistair Plum](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/alistair-plum/) - [Kai Kugler](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/kai-kugler/) ## Venues Where their works here were published, the most works first, with the editions of those that have a page. - [Conference of the European Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics (EACL)](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/): [EACL 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/eacl/2026/) - [Shaping Multilingual, Multimodal AI for the Social Sciences and Humanities @ LREC](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/llms4ssh/): [Shaping Multilingual, Multimodal AI for the Social Sciences and Humanities @ LREC 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/llms4ssh/2026/) - [Workshop on Computational Approaches to Subjectivity, Sentiment and Social Media Analysis](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/wassa/): [Workshop on Computational Approaches to Subjectivity, Sentiment and Social Media Analysis 2026](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/venues/wassa/2026/) ## Cited by Papers of our library cite their works 4 times (of the 149,439 papers whose bibliographies we read); [3 citing papers with a page here →](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/authors/nils-schwager/cited-by/).
