Nudge Effect of Fact-Check Alerts: Source Influence and Media Skepticism on Sharing of News Misinformation in Social Media Hypotheses

  • "Exposure to fact-check alerts warning users of misinformation in news will lower news sharing likelihood as compared to non-exposure."
  • "News from unfamiliar non-mainstream sources is less likely to be shared than news from legacy mainstream sources."
  • "News source will moderate the effect of fact-check alerts, such that users’ reluctance to share news flagged for misinformation will be greater for news from an unfamiliar non-mainstream source than news from a legacy mainstream source."
  • "Users’ greater reluctance to share news from an unfamiliar non-mainstream source as compared to a legacy mainstream source (H3) will be weaker when they are more skeptical of mainstream media."
