The study introduces PV‑SST, a peer‑voted social‑platform testbed, and conducts a preregistered matched‑exposure experiment across four topics, four seeds, four model families, and three larger variants, totaling 448 trials. Results show that feeding agents a ranked list of prior peer posts increases lexical similarity in both the core panel and larger variants, but does not produce a reliable advantage in opinion alignment or survival rates. The only robust finding is lexical convergence driven by the peer‑ranked feed, with no consistent coordination benefit across models or topics.

When many people highlight the same document, is the crowd a single consensus, or is it internally structured into reader sub-groups that mark different things -- and is that structure a stable property of a reader or of the document? Building on prior work showing an individual's within-document highlighting signal is a whisper while individuality lives in selection, we ask the group-level question on a co-readership platform using a margin-preserving curveball null.
The authors present the Cross-Platform Fairness Evaluation (CPFE) framework, a five‑axis audit protocol that assesses discriminative performance, calibration, statistical significance, prediction equity, and attribution stability of transformer models. Applying CPFE to four models trained on a Kaggle mental‑health corpus and tested on Reddit and Twitter, they find substantial cross‑platform degradation in AUC (30–40%) and severe calibration failures (ECE rising to 0.5 on Twitter). The study demonstrates that platform‑specific temperature scaling can largely fix calibration without harming discrimination, while prediction equity and attribution stability analyses reveal significant disparities and vocabulary divergence across platforms. The results argue that cross‑platform validation across all CPFE axes should become a standard requirement for mental‑health NLP systems deployed in heterogeneous environments.
