〝While dominant interventions, such as fact-checking, media literacy tips and news coverage of misinformation, aim to prevent the spread and endorsement of misinformation, we found that they may inadvertently prime individuals to approach all information, whether false or true, with heightened suspicion and scepticism.〞

〝Warning labels are more effective when they have greater coverage and specificity, are more visible to users, and come from high credibility sources such as experts. Warning labels even work on posts detailing politically congenial and contentious topics – though may be limited in their efficacy on posts across different online mediums.〞

Voici la rediffusion du webinaire que j’ai proposé hier autour de la question : « Le logiciel libre suffit-il à rendre le numérique acceptable ? ». Bonne écoute ou visionnage !
Le numérique « acceptable » repose sur trois dimensions intimement liées : il est soutenable socialement et écologiquement, émancipateur et non aliénant, choisi […]

〝In contrast to a Dislike count, the Misleading count provides normative information on the accuracy of the message. […] Using normative cues seems to be more effective in polarized contexts (e.g. US voters compared with UK voters) and for posts on polarizing issues (e.g. immigration) compared with non-polarizing issues (e.g. infrastructure).〞

- a new #article with a nice section on #interventions , including unintended consequences
If you are #skeptical that these sorts of large-scale, centrally-planned #interventions can solve social problems that have existed in #human #societies for hundreds or thousands of years, then you fall towards the bottom end of the #rationalism axis.
If you think about your #beliefs in these two areas, you might find yourself #surprised at where you fit on the chart, and what other belief systems fall near you. It's a lot more #insightful than the #meaningless left-right single axis.

We discuss the implications of the findings to the development and adaptation of #antiracism #interventions.
“The present pilot study is the first investigation directly examining the links between affective and psychiatric indicators and negative racial attitudes (NRA).”
I am struck by the similarities in the construction of “degenerating” situations in both cities, by racially and economically #marginalized young men of #immigrant origin. These discourses of disorder and pathology attributed to these young “migrant” men end up #socially and #politically justifying the desire for “order” by state #interventions of any kind- Shreya Parikh.
