论文摘要
假新闻是一个普遍的问题，尤其是在数字媒体中，破坏了人们之间的信任与合作。随着各种全球缓解措施的努力，对人们认为假新闻的理解变得很重要，尤其是在当地情况下。为此，我们对新加坡的75名参与者进行了一项调查，以了解人们对新闻（真实和假）的看法和实践。在本地，发现假新闻在即时消息应用程序中比在社交媒体中更普遍，因为问题更归因于共享而不是创建。通常观察到好消息共享实践。据报道，在11个媒体项目的政府传播平台上报告了最高信任。这些结果表明，新加坡拥有一个奇特的社会文化现场，这表明针对本地相关措施的努力可能更有效地解决新加坡的假新闻。我们详细介绍了本文的调查结果和推荐指示。
Fake news is a prevalent problem, particularly in digital media, that undermines trust and cooperation among people. As a variety of global mitigation efforts arise, the understanding of how people consider fake news becomes important, especially in local contexts. To that end, we carried out a survey with 75 participants in Singapore to understand people's perceptions of and practices with news (real and fake). Locally, fake news was found to be more pervasive in instant messaging apps than in social media, with the problem attributed more strongly to sharing than to creation. Good news sharing practices were generally observed. Highest trust was reported in government communication platforms across 11 media items. These results show that Singapore possesses a peculiar sociocultural scene, suggesting that efforts directed towards locally relevant measures may be more effective in addressing fake news in Singapore. We detail the survey results and recommended directions in this paper.
