Cognitive models of information effects
Mon statut pour la session
The modern information environment has made it increasingly difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. Additionally, some information is deliberately crafted and disseminated to exploit human cognitive processes. This environment is highly complex, which has made it difficult to study using traditional experimental methods. In other areas of cognitive science, researchers have addressed similar challenges by leveraging computational cognitive models alongside experimental approaches, leading to significant advances. However, existing models in this domain have primarily focused on identifying and characterizing features of the information environment rather than explaining their effects on cognition and behavior. We shift the focus toward explanation, developing and examining different models of information-related effects.
