摘要

世界卫生组织(世卫组织)发布了一系列流言终结者信息图表,以打击COVID-19信息大流行期间的错误信息。虽然这种揭穿干预措施的纠正效果通常在干预措施实施后立即进行检查;这些纠正效果的持久性及其对后续错误信息的弹性仍然知之甚少。为此,我们要求年轻人和老年人对10个包含关于COVID-19常见神话的错误信息的陈述的真实性和可信度进行评分,以及他们通过社交媒体分享这些陈述的意愿。他们在一次实验干预之前和之后做了三次这样的实验。与已有的研究结果一致,接触世界卫生组织的打破神话的信息图表——(a)提高了参与者对错误信息陈述的不真实和不可信的评级,(b)降低了他们报告的分享这些陈述的意愿。然而,受试者内部的数据显示,如果纠正信息在错误信息中短暂出现,这些有益效果就会减弱,但当出现进一步的纠正信息时,效果仍然存在。在整个研究过程中,年轻人认为错误信息的陈述更真实可信,也更愿意分享。我们的数据显示,如果随后出现错误信息,揭穿COVID-19干预措施的好处可能是短暂的。然而,如果有进一步的纠正信息,这种效果仍然可以保持。这些结果为纠正信息的有效性和持久性提供了见解,并可以影响处理与健康有关的错误信息的策略,特别是在年轻人中。

One Dose Is Not Enough: The Beneficial Effect of Corrective COVID-19 Information Is Diminished If Followed by Misinformation.

The World Health Organization (WHO) released a series of mythbuster infographics to combat misinformation during the COVID-19 infodemic. While the corrective effects of such debunking interventions have typically been examined in the immediate aftermath of intervention delivery; the durability of these corrective effects and their resilience against subsequent misinformation remains poorly understood. To this end, we asked younger and older adults to rate the truthfulness and credibility of 10 statements containing misinformation about common COVID-19 myths, as well as their willingness to share the statements through social media. They did this three times, before and after experimental interventions within a single study session. In keeping with established findings, exposure to the WHO's myth-busting infographics-(a) improved participants' ratings of the misinformation statements as untruthful and uncredible and (b) reduced their reported willingness to share the statements. However, within-subject data revealed these beneficial effects were diminished if corrective information was presented shortly by misinformation, but the effects remained when further corrective information was presented. Throughout the study, younger adults rated the misinformation statements as more truthful and credible and were more willing to share them. Our data reveal that the benefit of COVID-19 debunking interventions may be short-lived if followed shortly by misinformation. Still, the effect can be maintained in the presence of further corrective information. These outcomes provide insights into the effectiveness and durability of corrective information and can influence strategies for tackling health-related misinformation, especially in younger adults.

期刊介绍: Social Media + Society is an open access, peer-reviewed scholarly journal that focuses on the socio-cultural, political, psychological, historical, economic, legal and policy dimensions of social media in societies past, contemporary and future. We publish interdisciplinary work that draws from the social sciences, humanities and computational social sciences, reaches out to the arts and natural sciences, and we endorse mixed methods and methodologies. The journal is open to a diversity of theoretic paradigms and methodologies. The editorial vision of Social Media + Society draws inspiration from research on social media to outline a field of study poised to reflexively grow as social technologies evolve. We foster the open access of sharing of research on the social properties of media, as they manifest themselves through the uses people make of networked platforms past and present, digital and non. The journal presents a collaborative, open, and shared space, dedicated exclusively to the study of social media and their implications for societies. It facilitates state-of-the-art research on cutting-edge trends and allows scholars to focus and track trends specific to this field of study.
