The main aim of this paper is to provide a groundwork for future research into why users do not challenge misinformation on digital platforms by generating hypotheses through a synthesis of pertinent literature, including organisational behaviour, communication, human-computer interaction (HCI), psychology and education.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Design\/methodology\/approach<\/jats:title><jats:p>Given the lack of directly related literature, this paper synthesised findings from relevant fields where the findings might be relevant, as the tendency to withhold opinions or feedback is a well-documented practice in offline interaction.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Findings<\/jats:title><jats:p>Following the analysis of relevant literature, the potential reasons for online silence towards misinformation can be divided into six categories: self-oriented, relationship-oriented, others-oriented, content-oriented, individual characteristics and technical factors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title content-type=\"abstract-subheading\">Originality\/value<\/jats:title><jats:p>Although corrections coming from peers can effectively combat misinformation, several studies showed that people in cyberspace do not take such action. To the best of the authors\u2019 knowledge, there has been scarce and virtually non-existent research investigating why people refrain from challenging others who post misinformation online. Thus, this paper attempts to address this gap and identify reasons in adjacent domains. The reasons provide a starting point for researching interventions to reduce reluctance and abstinence regarding the challenge of misinformation. The findings can be beneficial beyond the area of challenging misinformation and are extensible to other types of content and communication that people are hesitant to discuss and challenge, such as online injustice, prejudice and hate speech.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1108\/intr-06-2022-0407","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,23]],"date-time":"2022-11-23T08:21:06Z","timestamp":1669191666000},"page":"1928-1948","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Online silence: why do people not challenge others when posting misinformation?"],"prefix":"10.1108","volume":"33","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9803-955X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Selin","family":"Gurgun","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Emily","family":"Arden-Close","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Keith","family":"Phalp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5285-7829","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Raian","family":"Ali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"140","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,24]]},"reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"key2023111708421287900_ref001","first-page":"1","article-title":"Research note: fighting misinformation or fighting for information?","volume":"3","year":"2022","journal-title":"Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) Misinformation Review"},{"key":"key2023111708421287900_ref002","first-page":"1","article-title":"Persuasive application for discouraging unhealthy gaming behaviour","year":"2021"},{"issue":"1","key":"key2023111708421287900_ref003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"45","DOI":"10.25256\/PAAL.24.1.3","article-title":"Promoting Japanese university students' participation in English classroom discussions: towards a culturally-informed bottom-up approach","volume":"24","year":"2020","journal-title":"Journal of Pan-Pacific Association of Applied Linguistics"},{"key":"key2023111708421287900_ref153","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","volume-title":"Lecture Notes in Computer Science","year":"2016","DOI":"10.1007\/978-3-319-44902-9_9"},{"issue":"6","key":"key2023111708421287900_ref005","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1303","DOI":"10.1177\/1461444820969893","article-title":"Why do so few people share fake news?
