Young People Don't Trust Twitter As Much As You Think [STUDY]

As Pacific Standard reports, in a small study at Michigan State University, a research team led by psychologist Kimberly Fenn explored how students responded to information in various formats.

96 undergrad students were shown a series of 50 images that told the story of a man robbing a car. The photos were displayed in quick succession on their computer screen, and together told a coherent narrative of the robbery.

Next, the students were shown 40 lines of text describing the events in the image.
