The present study tests and extends the RISP model (a) by applying the model in the context of COVID-19 in South Korea and (b) by examining the impacts of information seeking and processing on misinformation exposure and acceptance. Based on a survey of 346 Korean adults, this study showed that information avoidance, but not information seeking, was a positive predictor of misinformation exposure. In addition, heuristic processing, but not systematic processing, moderated the relationship between misinformation exposure and misinformation acceptance, such that the relationship between misinformation exposure and misinformation acceptance was stronger among those who showed greater tendency for heuristic processing. In addition, information insufficiency was a negative predictor of both information avoidance and heuristic processing. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
本研究通过（a）在韩国 COVID-19 背景下应用该模型，以及（b）检验信息寻求和处理对错误信息暴露和接受的影响，对 RISP 模型进行了测试和扩展。本研究基于对 346 名韩国成年人的调查，结果表明，信息回避而非信息寻求是错误信息暴露的正预测因子。此外，启发式加工而非系统加工调节了错误信息暴露与错误信息接受之间的关系，即对于那些更倾向于启发式加工的人来说，错误信息暴露与错误信息接受之间的关系更强。此外，信息不足是信息回避和启发式加工的负预测因子。讨论了理论和实际意义。
