New study by @lea-jo & @MediaInvierno revisits Lavine et al. (2005) on how threats & right-wing authoritarianism influence selective exposure to political info. Findings show no increased preference for attitude-consistent (dis)info. #Disinformation doi.org/10.1093/hcr/hqae016

🚨New publication🚨 with @fcomuc @milenionudos @imfd gang in @IJPOR_Journal. We study people’s ability to discern truth from misinfo. Those who trust MSM and follow politics were better at spotting truth. Younger folks & those trusting SM, not so much:

Overall, patterns, which should be re-tested in further settings, might explain different vulnerabilities across the political spectrum. Also supports the call for using signal detection measures instead of belief in false info, as argued by Batailler et al. and @BrianMGuay
