The study examined how conflicting COVID-19 information affects college students' attention, information-seeking behaviors, and concerns regarding the virus.
In the first sample, students who encountered conflicting information performed worse on attention tasks and sought more information, with concern linked to their mental workload.
In the second sample, conflicting information again drove information-seeking behaviors, suggesting that such confusion can impact cognitive function and well-being, highlighting the need for clearer messaging and support strategies in academic settings.
