The faculty and students working in the Social Media Lab are interested in the way people live, behave, think and love online. The Social Media Lab investigates a variety of behaviors that take place online, including language processes, patterns of deception, self-presentation in social networking sites, and the formation of attributions and relationships. The lab is a state-of-the-art facility, and is supported by funding from the National Science Foundation, the Department of Defense, and Cornell University.
