SUMMARY:SOIS Research Presentation: Fact Checking After Truth
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday\, Feb. 8\, 2023 | 12:00 – 1:30pm\nMaria Haigh\, Associate Professor\nSchool of Information Studies \nAbstract: \nThe rise of “fake news” (misinformation presented in the format of news reports) and a claimed breakdown in a social consensus behind the reliability of experts and mainstream reporting as information sources (leading to a “post-truth” society) have raised hard choices for journalistic fact-checkers. Should they focus on nuanced evaluations of specific claims by politicians\, or shift to debunking misinformation more generally? An analysis of fact-checking reports at the Washington Post around the US 2016\,  2020\, and 2022 elections suggests that fact-checkers adapted their editorial processes to the societal changes in perceptions of factual truth. \nLocation:\nNorthwest Quadrant Building D 3rd Floor\nRooms: 3835 & 3845\n2025 E. Newport Ave.\nMilwaukee\, WI 53211 \nJoin virtually here!

SUMMARY:SOIS Research Presentation: What makes Social Q&A Sites Credible?
DESCRIPTION:Due to inclement weather\, this event is now fully virtual. Join virtually here.\n\nWednesday\, Feb. 22\, 2023 | 12:00 – 1:30pm\nWonchan Choi\, Assistant Professor\nSchool of Information Studies \nAbstract: \nSocial question-and-answer (Q&A) sites have the potential to serve as a useful source of online information based on their content-focused and collaborative nature. Although previous research has examined various attributes of high-quality information on social Q&A sites (e.g.\, best answers)\, relatively less attention has been paid to what affects users’ credibility assessments of information in the social Q&A context. This presentation introduces an ongoing project aiming to develop a platform-specific framework for web credibility assessment on social Q&A sites. In particular\, preliminary findings of an online survey study (N = 598) exploring various cues and heuristics influencing users’ perceptions of web credibility in the social Q&A context will be discussed.  \nJoin virtually here!
