摘要

本研究考察了与冠状病毒疾病（COVID）相关的阴谋论的新闻报道对新冠肺炎严重性的共识认知的影响及其对态度和行为的影响。在一项在线实验中，395名参与者观看了一份包含阴谋论、科学事实或政治峰会信息的报告，随后他们完成了一份问卷调查。与其他报告相比，查看关于阴谋论的报告会导致对共识的更高评估。感知共识与对新冠肺炎的态度呈正相关，而态度又与行为呈正相关。研究表明，新闻报道可能会对共识的评估产生偏见，这对公共传播有影响。

How Media Reports on COVID-19 Conspiracy Theories Impact Consensus Beliefs and Protective Action: A Randomized Controlled Online Trial.

This study examines the influence of news coverage on coronavirus disease (COVID)-related conspiracy theories on consensus perceptions regarding the seriousness of COVID-19 and its impact on attitudes and behaviors. In an online experiment, 395 participants either watched a report containing conspiracy theories, scientific facts, or information about a political summit, and they subsequently completed a questionnaire. Viewing reports on conspiracy theories lead to higher assessments of consensus compared with other reports. Perceived consensus correlated positively with attitudes toward COVID, which further correlated positively with behavior. The study shows that news reports can bias assessments of consensus, which has implications for public communication.
