摘要

本文研究了导致 2020 年推特上在线 COVID 怀疑论在意大利各市扩散的因素。我们证明，社会人口因素可能会减缓怀疑论的出现，而民粹主义政治倾向则更有可能助长怀疑论。此外，以推特上的 "老实人 "为代表的 COVID 前反疫苗情绪放大了当地社区的在线 COVID 怀疑论。此外，我们还利用限制性经济政策的空间差异，发现 COVID 怀疑论在受经济封锁影响较大的城市传播得更广。最后，COVID 怀疑论的扩散与 COVID 疫苗的犹豫不决呈正相关。

Refueling a Quiet Fire: Old Truthers and New Discontent in the Wake of COVID-19.

This article investigates the factors that contributed to the proliferation of online COVID skepticism on Twitter across Italian municipalities in 2020. We demonstrate that sociodemographic factors were likely to mitigate the emergence of skepticism, whereas populist political leanings were more likely to foster it. Furthermore, pre-COVID anti-vaccine sentiment, represented by "old truthers" on Twitter, amplified online COVID skepticism in local communities. Additionally, exploiting the spatial variation in restrictive economic policies with severe implications for suspended workers in nonessential economic sectors, we find that COVID skepticism spreads more in municipalities significantly affected by the economic lockdown. Finally, the diffusion of COVID skepticism is positively associated with COVID vaccine hesitancy.

期刊介绍： Since its founding in 1964, the journal Demography has mirrored the vitality, diversity, high intellectual standard and wide impact of the field on which it reports. Demography presents the highest quality original research of scholars in a broad range of disciplines, including anthropology, biology, economics, geography, history, psychology, public health, sociology, and statistics. The journal encompasses a wide variety of methodological approaches to population research. Its geographic focus is global, with articles addressing demographic matters from around the planet. Its temporal scope is broad, as represented by research that explores demographic phenomena spanning the ages from the past to the present, and reaching toward the future. Authors whose work is published in Demography benefit from the wide audience of population scientists their research will reach. Also in 2011 Demography remains the most cited journal among population studies and demographic periodicals. Published bimonthly, Demography is the flagship journal of the Population Association of America, reaching the membership of one of the largest professional demographic associations in the world.
