20.500.12556/ReVIS-11592 The Role of social networks in the spread of fake news Crises in human society have been accompanied by the deliberate and unintentional spread of false news since the time of ancient Egypt. However, the spread of misinformation has taken entirely new dimensions with the emergence of online social networks. According to the World Economic Forum, fake news represents one of the main threats to human society. The scope and speed of the dissemination of fake news and misinformation in today's world significantly negatively affect democratic processes. In this contribution, we present an overview of research on the spread of fake news on social networks, focusing on major global crises in recent times, such as the U.S. elections, the Covid-19 pandemic, and the war in Ukraine, and present the state of our ongoing research project in this field. misinformation fake news social networks network diffusion agent based modelling dezinformacije lažne novice družabna omrežja mreža difuzija agentno modeliranje true true false Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2025-04-14 11:21:47 2025-04-14 11:21:47 2025-04-15 03:08:08 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2024 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 30. 5. 2024; Str.
