I’m Almog 🔊, an Assistant Professor at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, where I direct the Computational Social Psychology (CSP) lab in the Department of Psychology.

My research explores the intersections of social networks, social psychology, and language. I am particularly interested in understanding the role of social networks in political polarization and misinformation and how theoretical and applied research can be leveraged to counteract anti-democratic processes both online and in the real world.

I also investigate how language reflects psychological processes, shapes individual worldviews, and relates to mental health, with a focus on how computational tools can be used to understand, predict, and improve psychological well-being in digital environments.

Grounded in computational social science, my work draws on social, political, and cognitive psychology, intersecting with political science, communication, linguistics, and computer science. I apply methods that combine classic experimental psychology with big data analytics, machine learning, and natural language processing to advance both basic science and real-world applications.
