摘要:Many diverse fields across academia are interested in the fake news (FN) phenomenon. A multidisciplinary literature review can provide researchers with new insights, alternative methods, and theories from other fields. The present review incorporates FN research across fields and organizes it into three categories: FN Stimuli, the triggers and impetus for people and organizations to engage with FN; FN Actions, which encompass the activities and processes undertaken in FN; and FN Outcomes, the ...

摘要:Government agencies and fact-checking websites have been combating the spread of falsehoods on social media by issuing correction messages. There has been, however, no research on the effectiveness of correction messages on falsehoods and their dynamic interaction. We develop a theoretical model of the competition between falsehoods and correction messages on Twitter and show different interventions under which falsehoods could be hampered. Moreover, we use panel vector autoregressive models a...

摘要:The proliferation of fake news on social media has become a major societal and political problem. Meanwhile, social media platforms have started to require identity verification from users and label the verified users with a verification badge, making users more responsible for their online behavior. In this study, we empirically investigate two research questions: 1) What is the impact of identity verification on users' propensity to post fake news? and 2) How does a verification badge modera...

摘要:Fake news on social media has become a serious problem, and social media platforms have started to actively implement various interventions to mitigate its impact. This paper focuses on the effectiveness of two platform interventions, namely a content-level intervention (i.e., a fake news flag that applies to a single post) and an account-level intervention (i.e., a forwarding restriction policy that applies to the entire account). Collecting data from China's largest social media platform, we...

摘要:Falls are among the most life-threatening events that challenge senior citizens' independent living. Wearable sensor technologies have emerged as a viable solution for fall detection. However, existing fall detection models either focus on manual feature engineering or lack explainability. To advance the state-of-the-art of wearable sensor-based health management, we follow the computational design science paradigm and develop a deep learning model to detect falls based on wearable sensor data...

摘要:Easy access to equipment, software, and platforms to create, distribute, and provide access to fake news stories has exacerbated the problem of fake news, making for a large number of highly biased sources that are reaching the mainstream through social networks. The economics of emotion theory proposes that fake news headlines are created to evoke emotional responses in readers that will cause them to interact with the article in a way that allows the creator to make a profit (through clickin...

摘要:Emotional expressions have been widely used in online news. Existing research on the perception of online news has primarily focused on the effect of contextual cues on readers' reasoning and deliberation behavior; the role of discrete emotions such as anger and sadness, however, has been overlooked. This paper addresses this research gap by investigating the influence of angry and sad expressions in online news on readers' perception of the news. Drawing on the emotions as social information ...

摘要:Inadequate patient safety is a serious issue in current medical practice. Medical errors cause adverse events (AEs) for patients and lead to premature deaths, unintended complications, prolonged hospital stays, and higher medical costs. Although the importance of AE prediction and prevention is well recognized in the information systems literature, there is a dearth of research on modeling and predicting AEs caused by medical errors. Following the design science research paradigm, this study d...
