International scholars are those not born in or whose first academic degree is not from the country where they have their current and primary academic appointment. The poster shared an innovative look at how faculty and student researchers\u2019 domestic or international status may affect how users engage with content featuring photos of the researchers and their work on social media \u2013 specifically Twitter and Instagram.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2022\/04\/AIAEE-Horizontal-Final-1.jpg\" alt=\"A red and black research poster\" class=\"wp-image-691\" style=\"width:800px;height:600px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2022\/04\/AIAEE-Horizontal-Final-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2022\/04\/AIAEE-Horizontal-Final-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/site.caes.uga.edu\/lammlab\/files\/2022\/04\/AIAEE-Horizontal-Final-1-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This poster was presented in the 2022 AIAEE Conference Poster Session.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The exploratory study found engagement levels differed on Twitter and Instagram based upon whether the featured researchers were domestic or international scholars.
