flag Study finds misinformation training helps people spot fake news for up to a month.

flag A new study published in Nature Communications shows that misinformation training can help people identify fake news within a month. flag Over 11,000 participants were trained using three methods, with reading a short article proving most effective, lasting about a month. flag Memory retention and a perceived threat from misinformation helped participants resist false news. flag The study also found that consistent "booster" reminders are needed to maintain the training's effectiveness, potentially lasting over a year with repeated reinforcement. flag This research could help in combating online misinformation through media literacy education.
