Meta-analytic estimate (via random effects meta-analysis) of the item-level correlation between the accuracy prompt effect on sharing and the headline’s out-of-sample perceived accuracy rating. The correlation coefficient and 95% confidence interval are shown for each study, and the meta-analytic estimate is shown with the red dotted line and blue diamond. We find no significant heterogeneity in effect size across studies, Cochran’s Q test, Q(14) = 18.99, p = 0.165 (k = 15 independent studies).
