UC Berkeley psychologists in a new study have presented a somewhat paradoxical partial solution: Exposing young children to more misinformation online — not less.
Doing so in limited circumstances, and with careful oversight and education, can help children gain the tools they’ll need to sort fact from fiction online.
Researchers found that the children who were the most diligent about fact-checking the Zorpies claims were also the ones who saw more false claims about animals earlier in the study.
Parents should have discussions with children about how to check claims and to talk about what they're seeing.
Having clear expectations about what a platform can and can't deliver is also important, Orticio said.
“In real life, fact-checking is actually very hard. We need to bridge that gap,” he said.
