Flowcharts of the procedure participants went through in text-based Study 1 (A topic: climate change), gamified Study 2 (B topic: six often used misinformation techniques), and video-based Studies 3–5 (C topic: misinformation using emotional language). Each rectangle represents a stage of the study. The arrows depict the order of procedure for participants. Branching means participants were randomly allocated to a path. Pretests and posttests refer to the measurement of inoculation effects.
