This research explores the phenomenon of fake news dissemination on social media platforms (specifically TikTok, Facebook, and Twitter) within the Hispanic community. The study applies mathematical models, particularly filtering theory, to analyze how misinformation spreads and how users interpret information. Using a quantitative and exploratory approach, the research examines the main factors influencing fake news dissemination, supported by a literature review on diffusion models, graph theory, and filtering algorithms. Data collection focuses on real cases of misinformation shared across the three platforms, and the models are applied to identify patterns and user behaviors.
-----------------
Esta investigación explora el fenómeno de la difusión de noticias falsas en plataformas de redes sociales (específicamente TikTok, Facebook y Twitter) dentro de la comunidad hispana. El estudio aplica modelos matemáticos, en particular la teoría del filtrado, para analizar cómo se propaga la desinformación y cómo los usuarios interpretan la información. A través de un enfoque cuantitativo y exploratorio, la investigación examina los factores clave que influyen en la propagación de noticias falsas, apoyándose en una revisión de literatura sobre modelos de difusión, teoría de grafos y algoritmos de filtrado. La recolección de datos se centra en casos reales de desinformación compartidos en las tres plataformas, y se aplican los modelos para identificar patrones y comportamientos de los usuarios.
