RE: Misinformation Susceptibility Test shows certain groups more likely to believe bullshit

glad you took the test. I honestly was expecting "harder" questions than what was listed but I think if one was to have a strategy to try to ace this test they would have to completely ignore any biases that they have, even if they are only subtly aware of them existing. There were a couple of headlines that were in there that I was thinking that it looked like a number of clickbait headlines that would be something I would agree with so I thought that it is probably BS. When taking the test I answered "fake" for a number of titles that I actually want to be true.

there were several of those for me too, and I thought hardest on those, looking for extreme words mostly, such as "always" or "never" to decide on BS. But I "missed" three. I'd love to know which they were.

I wonder if the test is the same for everyone, no matter how many times they take it.
