Thomas Wood studies political misinformation and how factual corrections can change (or fail to change) people's beliefs and attitudes, using survey experiments across topics like elections, COVID-19 vaccines, climate change, and the Russia-Ukraine war. His work often involves large-scale, cross-national experiments testing whether fact-checking and debunking efforts actually shift public opinion.
Publication output has fluctuated over the past decade with a notable peak in 2019, followed by a decline and a more steady but modest pace of around 4-6 papers per year from 2021 to 2024.
