- The world is awful.
- The world is much better.
- The world can be SO much better.

Given many global problems come from how people think, feel or behave on their own or in groups, #BSci practitioners are uniquely placed to have positive impact.

I’m making data collection easier, how about you?

📊The results?

😡Bad News: 38-42% of participants interacted with the ‘fake news’ in the simulation; behaviour that in the real world would amplify its reach.

😀Good News: Amplification decreased significantly after playing a ‘fake news spotting’ game for just 45 seconds!

Can you spot fake news?

That’s the question Max Mawby’s team at Thinks Insight & Strategy asked 1650 participants in a social media simulation task powered by Gorilla Experiment Builder.
