To avoid social and economic losses, governments need to control rumor propagation by releasing official rumor-refuting information (ORI) dispel the rumors. Therefore, understanding complex competition mechanism between ORI rumors is key successfully refuting This paper presents an in-depth analysis of function in suppressing quashing First, influencing factors were determined from which a model was constructed quenched mean-field method employed determine outbreak threshold. It found that public cognition could affect threshold lead depletion, confirmed simulation. The simulation results also indicated government credibility release time played critical role controlling Specifically, it when high, able quash spread. And shown should as soon possible, ensure continuous dissemination effectively.
