Today, Lao Liu talks about it from the perspective of our middle-aged and elderly people.
First, let's see which rumors are easy to spread. According to Lao Liu's observation, these rumors are regular. They usually have a hot headline to attract readers and even cause panic.
Moreover, rumors like to be disguised as popular science and packaged as health knowledge. Generally speaking, it is two words: exaggeration, such as onion killing cold virus, calcium deficiency drinking bone soup to supplement calcium, orange peel unlocking mobile phone.
So, let's see why the elderly are more susceptible to rumors. Infringement? And then what?
The first is the characteristics of our elderly people. Our ability to identify rumors is relatively poor, and many people have low educational level and subjective well-being.
Secondly, rumors are very good at persuading the elderly. Most rumors have the following characteristics: avoid talking about the present and focus on the future; Emphasize the adverse consequences of events on body and mind to enhance the sense of substitution; Negative emotions arouse people's fear of death. Older friends have no resistance to these contents and are easily fooled.
So how should our elderly friends avoid being deceived by rumors?
First of all, we should learn more about new technologies and new information from young people around us, communicate with them if we don't understand, and constantly enhance our ability to identify rumors.
Secondly, we need to pay attention to the rumors published by some real authoritative media and professional organizations, which is more useful than what we do alone.
Finally, we should strengthen the ability of independent thinking, and we should not follow suit. We should judge everything according to experience and more information, and don't easily believe the so-called hot articles spread on the Internet.
