Deliberation denotes the collaborative process by which individuals convene to engage in substantive discourse, critically evaluate varied alternatives, and subsequently arrive at determinations. In the CSS Lab, Deliberation-Empirica is an ongoing project; it entails the construction of a digital platform that provides a virtual environment that allows researches on small-group deliberation to be conducted at a larger scale. In contrast to conventional data-gathering methodologies, Deliberation-Empirica affords researchers the capacity to enlist participants, collect multifaceted datasets encompassing dimensions such as political orientations, personality traits, demographic attributes, and more. This platform further facilitates the administration of targeted interventions, the facilitation of synchronous video conferencing, and the deployment of post- discussion surveys. The primary aim of the Deliberation-Empirica project revolves around the development of strategies geared towards ameliorating affective polarization within the context of group deliberations. This posters details three enhancements (among all others) that I made to the Deliberation-Empirica platform.
