Do Heuristic Cues Affect Misinformation Sharing? Evidence From a Meta-Analysis
Information overload in online environments leads individuals to be more likely to rely on heuristic cues to make decisions about (mis)information sharing. Drawing on dual-process models of information processing, namely the heuristic–systematic model and the elaboration likelihood model, we conducted a meta-analysis of 31 individual studies to examine the combined effects of five major heuristic cues on misinformation sharing. The results reveal…
Gut microbiota-related diet and hypertension: A mediation analysis using NHANES data
Background The Dietary Index for Gut Microbiota (DI-GM) is a novel metric developed in 2024 to assess diet-related gut microbiota health. While gut microbiota is implicated in metabolic and immune function, its link with hypertension through dietary patterns remains understudied.Methods In a cross-sectional analysis encompassing 25,270 adults from six NHANES cycles, we assessed the DI-GM-hypertension association using multivariable linear regress…
Differentiating the impact of ambient temperature on hospitalization due to cause-specific pneumonias: An individual-level, case-crossover study
Introduction: Associations between exposure to ambient temperature and the risks of hospital admission for overall or a specific type of pneumonia were reported in prior studies. However, few studies have systematically explored the potentially differential impacts of ambient temperature on hospitalization for cause-specific pneumonias. Methods: We performed a time-stratified, case-crossover study based on individual-level pneumonia-related hospi…

When AI fact-checks false short-form health videos: Effects of AI-driven fact-checking on credibility assessment of the videos
Although AI-driven fact-checking has been extensively applied on social media, it is unclear whether presenting AI rather than humans (e.g. social media platform administrators) as a fact-checker will affect people’s credibility perceptions of misinformation. Furthermore, most studies on machine heuristics have mainly focused on the positive machine heuristic and neglected the negative machine heuristic. In this study, a between-subjects online e…

This study sought to gain in-depth understanding of the experiences of Chinese cervical cancer patients as regards their quality of life and physical symptoms. METHODOLOGY: Semi-structured interviews were used to collect data. We recruited 15 women with cervical cancer…
Comparison of newly diagnosed COPD patients and the non-COPD residents in Shanghai Minhang District
Background To compare whether the general population, especially those without characteristic symptoms, need spirometry screening for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods Residents aged > 40 years old in Minhang, Shanghai, China, filled out screening questionnaires and underwent spirometry. The structured questionnaire integrating COPD population screening and COPD screening questionnaire was designed to obtain data on demographi…
How Misinformation and Rebuttals in Online Comments Affect People’s Intention to Receive Covid-19 Vaccines: The Roles of Psychological Reactance and Misperceptions
This study investigated how exposure to negative and misleading online comments about the COVID-19 vaccination persuasive messages and the ensuing corrective rebuttals of these comments affected people’s attitudes and intentions regarding vaccination. An online experiment was performed with 344 adults in the United States. The results showed that rebuttals by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, rather than those by social media users,…
Resistance to Masks During the Covid-19 Pandemic: How User Comments Drive Psychological Reactance to Health Campaigns
Campaigns for mask-wearing have become widespread on digital platforms during the COVID-19 outbreak and have garnered varied responses in the form of comments. The present study conducts a 2 (comment position: pro-mask wearing vs. anti-mask wearing) × 2 (comment tone: civil vs. uncivil) between-subjects experiment to investigate whether and how the position and tone of comments accompanying a health campaign on social media affect people's psycho…
How Exposure to Online Parenting Content Relates to Mothers’ Self-Discrepancy and Postpartum Mental Health
Postpartum mental health problems are common and have deleterious effects on new mothers and their babies.
