Task: Question Generation
Input (English): The first metric we report is the reaction type. The second metric we report is reaction speed. A study by Jin et al. jin2013epidemiological found that trusted news stories spread faster than misinformation or rumor; Zeng et al. zeng2016rumors found that tweets which deny rumors had shorter delays than tweets of support. Our second goal is to determine if these trends are maintained for various types of news sources on Twitter and Reddit. To examine whether users react to content from trusted sources differently than from deceptive sources, we measure the reaction delay, which we define as the time elapsed between the moment the link or content was posted/tweeted and the moment that the reaction comment or tweet occurred. We report the cumulative distribution functions (CDFs) for each source type and use Mann Whitney U (MWU) tests to compare whether users respond with a given reaction type with significantly different delays to news sources of different levels of credibility.
Output (English): How is speed measured?
