Note: Values in diagonal are the square root of AVE, and the off-diagonal values are correlations.
Note: ACAF: active corrective action on fake news; PCAF: passive corrective action on fake news; ISNCA: instantaneous sharing of news for creating awareness; ANBS: authenticating news before sharing; SFLT: sharing fake news due to lack of time; SFNR: sharing fake news due to religiosity.
