摘要

研究表明，健康误导信息在网上十分普遍，对公众健康构成了潜在的重大威胁。视觉误导信息在很大程度上被忽视了，鉴于视觉内容的独特性和无处不在性，这是一个显著的缺陷。在本文中，我们将（a）提供视觉误导的工作定义，（b）总结视觉误导的主要类别，（c）举例说明视觉在误导内容中的功能，以及（d）概述推进视觉误导研究的优先事项。在当前的信息环境下，采用系统的方法来研究视觉误导信息，可以改进减少健康误导信息和优化科学传播的工作。

Missing the Bigger Picture: The Need for More Research on Visual Health Misinformation.

Research shows that health misinformation is widespread online and poses a potentially significant threat to public health. Visual misinformation has been largely overlooked, a notable gap given the unique features and ubiquity of visual content. In this essay, we (a) provide a working definition of visual misinformation, (b) summarize the main categories of visual misinformation, (c) offer examples of the functions visuals can serve within misinformation content, and (d) outline priorities for advancing research on visual misinformation. A systematic approach to studying visual misinformation can improve efforts to mitigate health misinformation and optimize science communication in the current information environment.

期刊介绍： Science Communication is a prestigious journal that focuses on communication research. It is recognized globally for publishing top-quality manuscripts that demonstrate excellent theoretical frameworks and robust methodology. Our journal embraces a broad definition of science, encompassing not only the natural and physical sciences but also social science, technology, environment, engineering, and health. Regardless of the scientific area, effective communication is always the focal point of our investigations. Apart from theoretical and methodological rigor, we place great emphasis on the practical implications of scientific communication. Therefore, we expect all submitted manuscripts to address the real-world applications and significance of their research, alongside theoretical considerations. In summary, Science Communication is an internationally renowned journal dedicated to bridging the gap between science and society. By promoting effective communication in various scientific domains, we strive to engage readers with intriguing research that has tangible implications for the world around us.
