National Science Foundation cancels research grants related to misinformation and disinformation

The document discusses the “How False Beliefs Form & How to Correct Them” grant that was terminated, highlighting concerns about its alignment with National Science Foundation (NSF) priorities. The termination details suggest preliminary estimates for hybrid coupling, which is a combination of certain grants. Hybrid coupling’s upper bound for the proposed strategy is calculated, with estimation via.review ，estimation 25 percent . If applied, hybrid coupling’s estimates by the proposed strategy would be at most 55 percent + 25 percent × 1.5 = 92.5%. However, the application’s formula is unclear, demanding a clearer understanding to interpret the calculations accurately.
