摘要
假新闻会影响个人的行为和决策,同时也会扰乱政治进程、对医疗建议的看法以及社会趋势。提高个人准确评估假新闻的能力可以减少其有害影响。然而,以往有关旨在改善假新闻可信度评估的媒体素养干预措施的研究结果并不一致。我们系统地收集了 33 项独立研究,并进行了荟萃分析,以考察媒体素养干预对评估假新闻可信度的影响(n = 36256)。结果表明,媒体素养干预显著改善了假新闻可信度评估(Hedges' g = 0.53,95% 置信区间 [0.29-0.78],p
Can Media Literacy Intervention Improve Fake News Credibility Assessment? A Meta-Analysis.
Fake news impacts individuals' behavior and decision-making while also disrupting political processes, perceptions of medical advice, and societal trends. Improving individuals' ability to accurately assess fake news can reduce its harmful effects. However, previous research on media literacy interventions designed for improving fake news credibility assessments has yielded inconsistent results. We systematically collected 33 independent studies and performed a meta-analysis to examine the effects of media literacy interventions on assessing fake news credibility (n = 36,256). The results showed that media literacy interventions significantly improved fake news credibility assessments (Hedges' g = 0.53, 95% confidence interval [0.29-0.78], p < 0.001). Gaming interventions were the most effective intervention form. Conversely, the intervention channel, outcome measurement, and subject characteristics (age, gender, and country development level) did not influence the intervention effects.
