    I scanned the study and couldn’t figure out what a negative factual score means, it only talks about factuality being rated from 0 to 1.

      Figure 1. Association between factuality score adjusted by country mean, parties’ left-right ideology (right), and populism (middle), and government participation (left) with 95% confidence intervals.

      I think this means that the y axis represents the deviation from the mean score, not the actual ‘factuality score’.

        Ah! In my scanning I missed the “adjusted by country mean” but yeah, you’re totally correct.
