欧州でAIを用いたワクチン誤情報に対する認知的レジリエンスの構築
会話型AIを用いたワクチン誤情報に対する認知レジリエンス構築:多国間欧州ランダム化試験からのエビデンス
This multi-country trial evaluates an AI chatbot designed to counter cognitive biases and inoculate parents against vaccine misinformation, embedded within a large survey across five European countries (n=5,000). Scaled from a 2026 single-country study, outcomes compare behavioural and attitudinal responses against standard-of-care materials (e.g., UNICEF infographics) to identify effective, scalable misinformation interventions.
調査の概要
詳細な説明
The aim of this multi-country trial is to identify and quantify the effectiveness of inoculation strategies against vaccine-related misinformation. Building on a single-country study implemented in early 2026 [NCT07488962], the study evaluates an AI chatbot designed to counter cognitive biases, embedded within a larger survey to enable integrated assessment of engagement, behavioural responses, and system performance at scale.
The study will be conducted across five European countries-the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Croatia, Latvia, and Slovakia-with a total sample of 5,000 parents or caregivers (n=1,000 per country). Participants will complete a structured survey assessing childhood vaccination behaviours, vaccine confidence, trust in information sources, exposure to misinformation, and relevant psychological and sociodemographic factors.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention or control arm. The intervention arm will receive the AI-based chatbot, while the control arm will receive standard-of-care materials-such as national or international health institute communications (e.g., UNICEF infographics)-that address the same misinformation messages, enabling a direct and rigorous comparison.
The primary outcome is parents' ability to correctly distinguish true from false childhood vaccine statements. Quantitative analyses will include pooled and country-specific models to identify determinants of vaccine confidence and estimate intervention effects. Findings will clarify drivers of declining vaccine confidence and assess whether a scalable AI-based chatbot can reduce vulnerability to misinformation and support informed vaccination decisions.

Parental susceptibility to misinformation about childhood vaccination
時間枠:Through study completion, an average of 20-30 minutes
|
The primary outcome of this study will assess parental susceptibility to misinformation about childhood vaccination, defined as parents' ability to accurately distinguish between true and false vaccine-related information. This will be measured using ten statements on childhood vaccines, including four true and six false, rumour-related statements. Two of the rumour-related statements correspond to each of the three misinformation tactics introduced by the chatbot and the UNICEF infographic. This measure reflects parents' ability to identify misinformation containing manipulation tactics they were inoculated against and to distinguish true from false information regarding childhood vaccination. Responses will be recorded as "True", "False", or "Don't know". A composite misinformation susceptibility score will be calculated based on the number of correct responses, with higher scores indicating greater ability to identify vaccine misinformation accurately. |

Vaccine confidence
時間枠:Through study completion, an average of 20-30 minutes
|
Vaccine confidence will be assessed using three statements addressing whether childhood vaccines are important, safe, and effective. Responses will range from "Strongly agree" to "Strongly disagree", with a "Don't know" option. A composite score ranging from 0 to 100 will be calculated, with higher scores indicating greater vaccine confidence. |
