新冠肺炎疫情期间,不少人把社交媒体作为主要信息来源,获取最新的疫情资讯。但英国一项调查表明,这些人违反封锁规定、相信或散播“5G传播新冠”等阴谋论的可能性,相对于不依赖社交媒体获取信息的人高出近60%。 People who rely on social media for information about coronavirus are more likely to believe conspiracy theories and go outside with symptoms or breach lockdown rules, a new study revealed. 一项最新研究显示,把社交媒体作为新冠肺炎疫情主要信息来源的人更容易相信阴谋论、在已出现感染症状的情况下外出,或违反封锁规定。 Research published by the Psychological Medicine journal found that 60 percent of people who believe that Covid-19 was directly linked to the world's growing 5G network used YouTube as their primary source of news. 研究发现,认为新冠肺炎与全球不断增加的5G网络直接相关的人中,有60%将YouTube作为主要资讯来源。该研究报告发表在《心理医学》杂志上。 |
