Informed navigation of misinformation on social media constitutes a major challenge. The field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) suggests digital misinformation interventions as user-centered countermeasures. This book clusters (1) existing misinformation interventions within a taxonomy encompassing designs, interaction types, and timings. The book demonstrates that current research mostly addresses higher-educated participants, and targets Twitter/X and Facebook. It highlights trends toward comprehensible interventions in contrast to top-down approaches. The findings informed (2) the design, implementation, and evaluation of simulated apps for TikTok, voice messages, and Twitter/X as indicator-based interventions. Therefore, (3) the book identified misinformation indicators for various modalities that were perceived as comprehensible.The book empirically demonstrates that (4) indicator-based interventions are positively received due to their transparency. However, they also come with challenges, such as users' blind trust and lack of realistic assessments of biases. This research outlines chances and implications for future research.
