• Anger, Fear, and Echo Chambers: The Emotional Basis for Online Behavior (2019, background): “Thus, a key motivation for anxious individuals to seek information is to reduce uncertainty (Gadarian & Albertson, 2014; Hasell & Weeks, 2016).”
• Believing and sharing misinformation, fact-checks, and accurate information on social media: The role of anxiety during COVID-19 (2021, background): “…literature links anxiety to increased sharing (Berger, 2011), especially in political contexts with low knowledge (Heiss, 2020), other work shows the opposite (Lerner and Keltner, 2001), with the rationale that “anxiety may cause people to withdraw and avoid risk” (Hasell and Weeks, 2016: 646).”
