Concept

Shifting attention to accuracy can reduce misinformation online - Twitter intervention study analysis

Ran linear regressions with heteroscedasticity-robust standard errors and Fisherian Randomization Inference (FRI) for all users in each of the treatment days
Compared users who have and have not been sent the message
Used an intent-to-treat approach to assume all messages were sent at the same time
Average relative quality score – every tweet given a quality score
Summed relative quality score – keeps track of all tweets/retweets by a user
Discernment – the difference between tweets/links shared from mainstream sources and unreliable sources per day
