The HKS Misinformation Review

A peer-reviewed journal publishing multidisciplinary research on misinformation.

The Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) Misinformation Review is a scholarly publication with a fast approach to peer review. It is an interdisciplinary, open-access journal where researchers, journalists, technologists, policymakers, educators, and other practitioners working in the information, media, and platform landscape can connect with timely, peer-reviewed research about misinformation.

Based at the Shorenstein Center, the HKS Misinformation Review publishes high-quality Research Articles, Research Notes, and Commentaries from researchers at institutions around the world. Since launching in January 2020, the HKS Misinformation Review has published more than 100 peer-reviewed studies that examine misinformation from different perspectives—from its prevalence and impact to the effectiveness of possible interventions—all edited to be short and accessible to non-specialist audiences.
