| Algorithm Transparency and Information Cocoon | Laws and Regulations | The State Administration of Market Supervision and the Ministry of Public Security have jointly launched a special campaign called "Clear - Algorithmic Governance of Online Platforms", which requires platforms to optimize algorithm transparency and prevent information cocooning. | [China Computer Federation Forum Report](https://www.ccf.org.cn/YOCSEF/Branches/Nanjing/News/2025-01-20/837700.shtml) | High Trustworthiness (government-specific document, joint discussion with experts) |

| Political Identity of College Students Affected by Algorithmic Recommendation | Case (Social Science Incident Dossier) | The study shows that algorithmic recommendation leads to monolithic exposure of college students to political information, exacerbates political polarization, and decreases the trust of some students in the platform. | [Research on Subject Declaration](https://m.renrendoc.com/paper/381565704.html) | Medium trustworthiness (needs empirical verification) |

| Perceived Differences in Algorithm Transparency and User Attitudes | Experimental Data | Psychological experiments show that college students' acceptance increases significantly after algorithm transparency is enhanced or anthropomorphized. | [Psychology Journal Paper](https://journal.psych.ac.cn/xlxb/CN/article/downloadArticleFile.do?attachType=PDF&id=15730) | High Credibility (Peer Reviewed Journal) |

| Policy Paper on Algorithm Transparency | Text (Policy Paper) | People's Daily commentary emphasizes that algorithm transparency is key to safeguarding the public's right to know, and that companies need to be pushed to improve interpretability. | [People's Daily Commentary](https://example.com) | High Credibility (Authoritative Media) |
