Can you handle the truth? Putting misinformation to the test with the OECD Truth Quest Survey
On a daily basis, we’re faced with a deluge of online content, only swelling further with the mainstreaming of generative AI and rising political polarisation. Improving our joint understanding of how people consume news, and how effectively they distinguish between fact and fiction, is one of the key challenges of our time.
The OECD Truth Quest Survey implements an innovative methodology to answer this question. With over 40,000 respondents across 21 countries, the survey provides unprecedented insights into media literacy and its implications for global policy making.
In this episode of Behind the Numbers, our host Ashley Ward is joined by OECD Head of Digital Connectivity, Economics and Society Molly Lesher to discuss the dangers of misinformation, overcoming measurement challenges, and the survey results so far.
Explore the work behind this innovative survey and learn how policymakers can use this data to create targeted strategies to fight misinformation.
Host: Ashley Ward, Advisor and Communications Manager (OECD Statistics and Data Directorate)
Guest: Molly Lesher, Acting Head of the Digital Connectivity, Economics and Society Division (OECD Directorate for Science, Technology and Innovation)
