“…Em suma, esses grupos souberam se aproveitar das ferramentas dispostas pela era digital, como a dominância da chamada Web 2.0, isto é, das redes sociaisveículos da web feitos para o compartilhamento de mensagens e de postse das mídias populares da internet, como um meio de dar atenção às pautas eurocéticas, e de, então, convencer os eleitores da reivindicada verdade de suas pautas por meio das fake news e do discurso nacionalistaancorado no sentimento de frustração aos problemas socioeconômicos. Sem os canais sociais de comunicação da era da informação, os fenômenos da politização, da polarização e da ascensão da extrema-direita eurocética populista não seriam possíveis da mesma maneira que se prosseguiram (Arrese, 2022).…”

In this article, we examine the ideological trajectories of Facebook groups discussing climate change issues in Sweden, with a particular focus on groups expressing climate change denial beliefs. Using textual data spanning nine years, we construct an ideological space through text embeddings and apply trajectory analysis to map the ideological movement of these groups, exploring potential radicalisation or polarisation in users’ beliefs. Our findings suggest that most groups spreading climate change denial views occupy a shared ideological space, but are positioned on the periphery rather than at the centre. Additionally, we identify several distinct clusters of actors with similar movement patterns, some of which shift towards positions where climate change scepticism or increased problematisation of climate change issues is more prevalent. Finally, we discuss ways to interpret the dimensions of the resulting ideological space.

The widespread dissemination of misinformation has become a global concern. A recommended solution is to improve people’s ability to discern true from false information through appropriate media literacy education programs. This meta-analysis quantitatively synthesized the results of 49 experimental studies ( N = 81,155) that examined the efficacy of media literacy interventions in mitigating misinformation. This study finds that media literacy interventions generally improve resilience to misinformation ( d = 0.60). Specifically, the interventions reduce belief in misinformation ( d = 0.27), improve misinformation discernment ( d = 0.76), and decrease misinformation sharing ( d = 1.04). Moreover, media literacy interventions have stronger effects (1) when multiple sessions rather than a single session are implemented, (2) in high (vs. low) uncertainty avoidance cultures, and (3) among college students than among adults recruited from online crowdsourcing platforms (e.g., Amazon Mechanical Turk). These findings enrich our understanding of inoculation theory and provide valuable guidance for the design of future media literacy intervention programs.
