 E-Mail PULLMAN, Wash. - The ability to identify misinformation only benefits people who have some skepticism toward social media, according to a new study from Washington State University. Researchers found that people with a strong trust in information found on social media sites were more likely to believe conspiracies, which falsely explain significant events as part of a secret evil plot, even if they could identify other types of misinformation. The study, published in the journal Public Understanding of Science on March 5, showed this held true for beliefs in older conspiracy theories as well as newer ones around COVID-19. There was some good and bad news in this study, said Porismita Borah, an associate professor in WSU s Edward R. Murrow College of Communication and a corresponding author on the study. The good news is that you are less susceptible to conspiracy theories if you have some media literacy skills, one of which is being able to identify misinformation.
