TY - JOUR A1 - Meier, Sebastian T1 - Visualizations in Online News - and Their Effect on Perceived Credibility T2 - KN - Journal of cartography and geographic information N2 - Over the last few years, data visualization, especially the visualization of spatial data, has become of ever-increasing importance in modern online journalism. While there is a broad range of research projects that focus on developing new methods, techniques, and implementations, empirical analysis of the potential implications of this trend is still rare. In this paper, the potential influence of visualizations in online journalism is in the focus: perceived credibility. The need for such empirical research is emphasized by presenting a preliminary quantitative study that assesses the impact of maps and information visualization on the perceived credibility of online news articles.
