## Aim
<div style="text-align: left">
* [*Jaminan Kesehatan Nasional* (JKN)](https://www.thejakartapost.com/academia/2018/04/06/qa-bpjs-kesehatan-health-for-all-indonesians.html) is a national health insurance programme in Indonesia, covering around 221 millions Indonesians (2019).
* The research aimed to examine variables that explain why ==laypeople== and ==healthcare workers== **support or disprove the policy**.
</div>
---
## Hypotheses :one:
<div style="text-align: left">
* We expected to find evidence that participants with ==higher just-world bias== would be ==more likely to support== the policy.
* It was also assumed that if participants ==evaluated the quality== of Indonesian healthcare services ==more positively==, they would have been ==more likely to support== the policy.
</div>
---
## Hypotheses :two:
<div style="text-align: left">
* Participants who were ==confident== that ==health system and institutions== serve the public's interests, would ==support== the policy.
* Participants who had ==higher trust in healthcare services==, would be also more likely to ==retain positive acceptability==.
* At last, participants who ==voted for== *Partai Demokrasi Indonesia-Perjuangan* (PDIP), the political party that initiated the bill, the ==more they supported== the policy.
</div>
---
## Methods :one:
<div style="text-align: left">
* A cross-sectional survey involving 308 laypeople (:woman:=63.6%) and 95 healthcare workers (:woman:=64.2%).
* We measured policy acceptability ($\omega$<sub>t</sub>=.79), BJW ($\omega$<sub>t</sub>=.84), trust in healthcare services ($\omega$<sub>t</sub>=.90), and level of confidence to healthcare institutions ($\omega$<sub>t</sub>=.82), support to a political party, and a general evaluation of healthcare service quality after JKN.
</div>
---
## Methods :two:
<div style="text-aligned: left">
* We tested the hypotheses using ==a two-level random-intercept linear mixed model== and built laypeople and HCW model separately
* ==Laypeople model== :arrow_right: JKN member | non-JKN member
* ==HCW model== :arrow_right: Doctor (GP, specialists, & dentist) | Non-Doctor (nurses, midwives, pharmacists, psychologists, etc)
</div>
---
## Methods :three:
<div style="text-aligned: left">
* All predictors were centred at the group mean
* Estimating model parameters :arrow_right: maximum likelihood
* Estimating degree of freedom :arrow_right: Satterwaithe approximation
* For **HCW sample**, ==support for political party was omitted== from the model due to high percentage of **missing data**
</div>
---
## Findings :one:
<div style="text-aligned: left">
* **In laypeople sample**, we found ==a significant yet small== (*B*=0.043, *SE*=0.011, *p*=.000) effect of **trust** and ==large effect== of **general evaluation** of healthcare service after JKN (*B*=2.223, *SE*=0.255, *p*=.000) in explaining policy support.
* We ==failed to reject *H*<sub>0</sub>== that BJW, political party support, and confidence to healthcare system and institution were not correlated with policy support.
</div>
---
## Findings :two:
<div style="text-aligned: left">
* **In HCW sample**, we found ==a small and negative effect== of BJW (*B*=-0.164, *SE*=0.056, *p*=.004) and ==a positive, small effect== of **level of confidence** (*B*=0.536, *SE*=0.138, *p*=.000), and ==a moderate effect== of **overall evaluation** (*B*=1.521, *SE*=0.365, *p*=.000) to policy support.
* We **failed to find an evidence** to conclude a relationship between **trust** and policy support.
</div>
---
## Conclusion :one:
<div style="text-aligned: left">
* Contrasting to our hypotheses, **HCW** with **higher just-world bias** tend to hold **more negative attitudes towards the policy**.
* It's possible due to HCWs' perception that the system treats them unfairly :arrow_right: although further research is required.
</div>
---
## Conclusion :two:
<div style="text-aligned: left">
* Laypeople are **more likely** to base their judgement on the policy on **the quality of healthcare service** that they receive, not on a certain **ideology or values** :arrow_right: more pragmatic than ideological.
</div>
---
## Limitations
<div style="text-aligned: left">
* Participants were recruited through social media and IMs :arrow_right: prone to *selection bias*
* Oversampling female participants

### Social interventions to debilitate norms violations on social media
The effect of censorship and social exclusion
Rizqy **Amelia** Zein

### What we have learned so far :one:
<div style="text-align: left">
* Moderately withholding unwanted contents [might reduce](https://academic.oup.com/esr/article/34/3/223/4944213) the occurence of counter-norms behaviour on social media, but censorship is **a double-edged sword**.
* Despite its function to define descriptive norms, it could [evoke societal](http://doi.wiley.com/10.1111/pops.12391) and [behavioural problems](https://doi.org/10.1007/s12144-019-00316-8) :arrow_right: inducing ==psychological reactance==.
* [Emotions (fear and anger)](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4675534/) plays an important role in resulting reactance.
</div>
---
## ...and the questions arise :one:
<div style="text-align: left">
* Moderate censorship is apparently quite effective, but what ==kind of censorship== specifically that works better in debilitating norms violations?
* Could it be depending on who decide what to censor? :arrow_right: actors
* ..or perhaps depending on the contents?
* What are contents that "morally permissible" to be hidden? :arrow_right: the role of [ideology (RWA)](https://doi.org/10.1111/pops.12313)
</div>
---
## Predictions :one:
<div style= "text-align: left">
* Who decide what to censor
* **Anger** might ==mediate== the ==effect of censorship== that comes from **a powerful source** (e.g. government) on ==increasing== **counter-norms behaviours**.
* **Fear** (of social rejection) would explain why censorship leads to ==a decrease of norms violations==, esp when the contents are 'flagged' by **real users, or AI** (such as [@BotSentinel](https://botsentinel.com/)).
</div>
---
## Predictions :one:
<div style= "text-align: left">
* What contents are 'moral to be hidden'?
* Contents from ==untrustworthy sources== and targetting ==vulnerable groups== would be perceived as more =="morally-permissible"== to be removed.
* **Ideology** (*trait-like* disposition)
* People with ==high RWA== would respond ==more negatively== if they suspect comments/contents that ==align to their values== have been deliberately ==removed==.
</div>
---
### What we have learned so far :two:
<div style="text-align: left">
* Don't feed the trolls :arrow_right: trolls [spend more time online](https://linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S0191886914000324) and associated with [attention-conflict seeking](https://doi.org/10.1111/bjop.12154).
* Therefore, [greater visibility](https://doi.org/10.1080/01972243.2017.1391911) is important to trolls.
* Why don't we ==troll the trolls==?
* If visibility is important, ostracizing is a potential punitive measure to impose norms.
</div>
---
### What we have learned so far :two:
<div style="text-align: left">
* Ostracism causes [extreme negative emotions](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0022022117724900), but varying across culture :arrow_right: depending on self-construal and [personality](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0146167216643933).
* People are more [sensitive to social cues](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/1368430215596073) and [conform](https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-16999-6_1474-1) to the group norms after being excluded.
* The absence of paralinguistic digital affordances (PDA, e.g. <i class="fa fa-heart"></i>, <i class="fa fa-retweet"></i>, <i class="fa fa-thumbs-up"></i>, <i class="fa fa-share"></i>) [implies cyberostracism](https://doi.org/10.1177/2056305118800309) as users perceive it as a form of [social confirmation](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27635443).
</div>
---
## Predictions :two:
<div style="text-align: left">
* **Ostracised individuals** might be ==more likely== to perform **morally-conformed expression** (<i class="fa fa-retweet"></i>, <i class="fa fa-share"></i>+ moral comments), especially after being rejected by **their ingroups**.
* The effect would be ==mediated== by **anger** (independent self-construal) and **sadness** (interdependent self-construal), and ==moderated== by **personality** (agreeableness).
</div>
---
## Proposed methods :one:
<div style="text-align: left">
* Experimental approach is suitable to test proposed hypotheses :arrow_right: between-subjects design is ideal, if feasible.
* To manipulate censorship, using 'fake' social media (e.g. [Truman](https://github.com/cornellsml/truman)) is ideal, but requiring heavy programming skill :arrow_right: potential technical and budget constraints.
* Easier, yet less powerful alternatives :arrow_right: simulating online forum or using screenshots as stimulus.
</div>
---
## Proposed methods :two:
<div style="text-align: left">
* [Social media ostracism paradigm](http://smpo.github.io/socialmedia/) is a more powerful tool to manipulate ostracism, than the classic [Cyberball](https://www1.psych.purdue.edu/f~willia55/Announce/cyberball.htm) :arrow_right: fits very well to research aims and easily customisable.
* [Registered report](https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-019-02674-6) format is worth to consider :arrow_right: esp if aiming for high-tier outlets.
