Imagine reading an article with a controversial statement that surprises you. What will you do first?

Select an answer:

I run through my head to see if I have ever heard something similar. I feel the tension and I have the need to tell someone right away. I will look for multiple sources to verify if it is true. I feel disdain for the media that publishes such things. I will think about why it actually affected me so much.

Someone enthusiastically tells you about a theory that "reveals the truth that is not talked about." How do you respond?

Select an answer:

I curiously inquire, even though I'm not sure if I believe it. I will express my own opinion, even though I know that I might clash with it. I listen carefully, but I try not to have any opinion so as not to offend anyone. I get excited about it if it makes sense to me. I will give an example of how similar things have proven to be false in the past.

What image comes to your mind when you hear the word "manipulation"?

Select an answer:

Something that happens everywhere, even if we are not aware of it. The image of strings and a puppet in someone else's hands. The feeling of guilt that maybe I will be manipulated too at some point. People who can be easily led – and I try not to be like them. A discussion in which someone distorts the facts.

If you had to make a decision based on incomplete information, what would you do?

Select an answer:

I will wait until I have certainty – even at the cost of losing the opportunity. I will decide based on my intuition or first impression. I am looking for further connections, even though I will delay the decision. I will decide quickly – any decision is better than no decision. I will consult someone whom I consider wise.

Which statement is closest to you?

Select an answer:

"Not everything you see is true." "If the majority claims so, there must be something to it." "Everyone has their own truth – you just need to look at it from their perspective." "Facts are facts - the rest are just opinions." "You always have to ask: Who profits from this?"

When someone shares a shocking post on social media, what goes through your mind?

Select an answer:

I am interested in how it will affect his surroundings. I tell myself in spirit that he got caught. I am examining why it evokes a strong emotion in me. I feel the need to respond and set the record straight. I ignore it – everyone has the right to believe what they want.

How do you feel when you find out that something you believed was a lie?

Select an answer:

I am uncertain what is still true. I am angry – mainly at myself. I will take a lesson from this and move on. I defend myself by saying that I had no way of knowing the truth. I will think about why it convinced me and who spread it.

What do you think causes some information to spread quickly?

Select an answer:

They are shocking or emotionally powerful. People have a need to believe in something, even when there is no evidence. There is someone behind it who wants to influence opinions. It is simple – few people have the time to search for the truth. It's normal – it's always been that way.

Imagine you are in a group where everyone is stating something that you consider misinformation. What will you do?

Select an answer:

I will consider whether it makes sense to reach out – depending on the context. I prefer to remain silent, I don't want to be the black sheep. I am trying to gently question their sources. I will express my opinion regardless of the consequences. First, I will check if I am completely sure of my stance.

If you were a journalist, how would you approach writing an article about a sensitive topic?

Select an answer:

I would try to be objective, even if I were not understood. I would write in a way that would spark a discussion. I would stick to verified facts, even if the article is boring. I would include a personal opinion in the article if it is well-founded. I would write in a way to grab attention - otherwise, it doesn't work today.
