We asked our respondents for the following information about seven "places where people might get information about the past:" "Please tell (us) how trustworthy you think each is as a source of information about the past using a 1 to 10 scale, where 1 means not at all trustworthy and 10 means very trustworthy." The table below reports the OLS (ordinary least squares) Coefficients for regressions of "trustworthiness" of the seven sources of information about the past listed under the table. These regressions are a statistical method for measuring the extent to which one or more variables (e.g., demographic characteristics like age or gender) affect another variable (e.g., trustworthiness of sources of information about the past). The standard errors for the coefficients are in parentheses.
