| | During the [[COVID-19 pandemic]], the Alan Turing Institute conducted a research project titled "Vulnerability to misinformation during COVID-19" funded by the [[Health Foundation]]. The project used "online experiments" to identify "which individuals are most vulnerable to believing falsities" and "what features of false content lead individuals to believe they are true."((//Vulnerability to misinformation during COVID-19.// Alan Turing Institute.
