DESIVE²

This app is part of the research project “DESIVE² – Desinformationsverhalten verstehen / Understanding Disinformation Behavior“, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) in Germany as part of the "Agile research – Recognizing and combating digital disinformation campaigns" measure (Grant Agreement No.: 16KIS1528K). The responsibility for the content lies with the authors.

The DESIVE² project investigates how health-related information, including misinformation, spreads across digital platforms. Through user participation, the project seeks to understand patterns in how people receive, share, and perceive health information, particularly when it may be inaccurate. DESIVE² emphasizes ethical data handling and privacy standards, conducting interviews and surveys via a secure app. Participants contribute valuable insights into the dynamics of digital health information dissemination.
