Arjen van Dalen, Associate Professor at the University of Southern Denmark told us about his four-year research project that focuses on economic news. The research group studied, using content analysis and a large survey following people’s understanding of news during one year, how people learn about and understand economic news.

At the end of the video, van Dalen shares his future interests related to testing assumptions and effects of news.

The interview was filmed at the Nordic Data Journalism Conference 2017 in Odense, Denmark.
