这项研究考察了人们在回应假新闻时对网络上其他人的顺从的影响。研究发现，在看到别人批评假新闻文章的评论后，个体态度、做出积极评论的倾向和分享假新闻的意愿比看到别人支持假新闻文章的评论后要低。此外，本研究发现，使用社交媒体公司的免责声明来提醒个人新闻可能是假的，并不会降低个人的态度，倾向于做出积极的评论和分享假新闻的意图，就像其他用户的批评评论一样。
This study examines the effects of conformity to others online when individuals respond to fake news. It finds that after exposure to others' comments critical of a fake news article, individuate attitudes, propensity to make positive comments and intentions to share the fake news were lower than after exposure to others' comments supportive of a fake news article. Furthermore, this research finds that the use of a disclaimer from a social media company alerting individuals to the fact that the news might be fake does not lower individuals' attitudes, propensity to make positive comments and intentions to share the fake news as much as critical comments from other users.
