摘要

有害的错误信息的传播构成了日益严重的全球威胁，破坏了人们对科学、公共卫生和民主的信任。心理接种（即“预掩体”）提供了一种很有希望的方法来帮助人们区分可信内容和操纵内容。我们使用层次贝叶斯框架中的信号检测理论重新分析了33个接种实验（合计N = 37,025）。结果表明，游戏化和基于视频的干预都能持续提高对可靠和不可靠新闻的区分，而不会增加反应偏差——也就是说，参与者不会变得更加一致地怀疑或轻信。我们的研究结果强调了心理接种在增强歧视方面的有效性，同时避免了对可信新闻信任的意外副作用，为其作为可扩展的错误信息干预提供了强有力的支持。

A signal detection theory meta-analysis of psychological inoculation against misinformation

The spread of harmful misinformation poses a growing global threat, undermining trust in science, public health, and democracy. Psychological inoculation (i.e. “prebunking”) offers a promising approach to help people distinguish credible from manipulative content. We re-analyzed 33 inoculation experiments (combined N = 37, 025) using Signal Detection Theory within a hierarchical Bayesian framework. Results show that both gamified and video-based interventions consistently improve discrimination between reliable and unreliable news, without increasing response bias—that is, participants did not become more uniformly skeptical or credulous. Our findings highlight the effectiveness of psychological inoculation in enhancing discrimination while avoiding unintended side effects on trust in credible news, offering robust support for its use as a scalable misinformation intervention.
