摘要
Misinformation disseminated via online social networks can cause social confusion and result in inadequate responses during disasters and emergencies. To contribute to social media-based disaster resilience, we aim to decipher the spread of disaster misinformation and its correction through the case study of the disaster rumor during Hurricane Sandy (2012) on Twitter. We first leveraged social network analysis to identify different types of accounts that are influential in spreading and debunking disaster misinformation. Second, we examined how the spatiotemporal proximity to the rumor event influences the sharing of misinformation and the sharing of corrections on Twitter. Third, through sentiment analysis, we went further by examining how spatiotemporal and demographic similarity between social media users affect behavioral and emotional responses to misinformation. Finally, sentiment contagion across rumor and correction networks was also examined. Our findings generate novel insights into detecting and counteracting misinformation using social media with implications for disaster management. ???????????, ????????, ???????????????????????????????, ?????????(2012)?????????, ????????????????????????, ????????????????????????????????, ????????????????????????????????, ??????, ?????????????????????????, ?????????????????????, ???????????????????????????????????????, ??????? La desinformacion difundida en las redes sociales puede llevar a la confusion social y dar lugar a respuestas inadecuadas durante desastres y emergencias. Para contribuir a la resiliencia frente a los desastres a traves de los medios sociales, nos enfocamos a descifrar el proceso de difundir desinformacion, y a su correccion, a traves de un estudio de caso sobre el rumor de desastre durante el Huracan Sandy (2012), en Twitter. Primero de todo aplicamos analisis de redes sociales para identificar los diferentes tipos de cuenta que tienen influencia tanto en la difusion como en el desmentido de la desinformacion sobre desastres. En segundo lugar, examinamos como la proximidad espaciotemporal al evento del rumor influye en el proceso de compartir tanto la desinformacion como el intercambio de correcciones, en Twitter. Tercero, por medio del analisis de sentimiento, avanzamos aun mas al examinar como afectan la similitud espaciotemporal y demografica entre los usuarios de los medios sociales las respuestas conductuales y emocionales a la desinformacion. Finalmente, tambien se examino el contagio de sentimientos a traves de las redes de rumor y correccion. Nuestros hallazgos generan nuevas visiones para detectar desinformacion mediante el uso de los medios sociales, con implicaciones en el manejo de desastres, y como contrarrestarla.
