MENTAL GUARDIANSHIP: REDOC'S PATH TO STRENGTHENING PSYCHOLOGICAL RESILIENCE AGAINST MISINFORMATION

Abstract

The proliferation of misinformation on social media is a significant societal problem. Recent research has shown that disinformation campaigns often seek to sow distrust and increase intergroup divisions by spreading content that is not necessarily false but harmful in other ways. This study explores the feasibility of reducing polarization on social media through psychological interventions.
