Another Point of View
In a series of essays, scholars respond to Perloff and Shen’s article, “The Third-Person Effect 40 Years After Davison Penned It.” They offer further thoughts on how to measure the phenomenon, where future research is headed, and even whether the effect is real
Tomorrow's Journalists
This study explored whether student journalists believed they shared news topic preferences with the public. Previous research suggests journalists are very different from the audiences they serve, which may influence their perceptions of audience story preferences because of the social identity theory and the social distance corollary. A national random sample of students working at campus newspapers showed that student journalists believed that…

Likelihood to Vote, Candidate Choice, and the Third-Person Effect
This study found that levels of likelihood to vote can be predicted by the third-person effect. Unlike past studies that treated support for censorship as the main consequence of the third-person effect, this study is the first to examine the direct political implications of the process. A judgment task experiment of 340 individuals who were shown four ads from the 2004 Bush and Kerry campaigns yielded support for both the perceptual and behavior…
Exploring a Link Between the Third-Person Effect and the Theory of Reasoned Action
The authors tested the limitations of paternalism as an explanation for the third-person effect's behavioral aspect, suggesting that the theory of reasoned action better explains why people are sometimes motivated to act on the third-person effect. This study ( N = 600) revealed that the third-person effect can motivate people toward socially desirable action that is not corrective in nature, supporting the theory of reasoned action as a theoreti…
Network TV News' Affective Framing of the Presidential Candidates
This study expands the theory of second-level agenda setting to include affective framing of candidates conveyed through visual information during the 2000 presidential campaign. Network TV news coverage included nonverbal behavior for Al Gore that was more positive than George Bush's, and those who watched more were significantly more likely to hold attitudes that mirrored the media portrayals
Do You See What I See
In this experiment I examined the effect of self-esteem, negative stigma of product in a message, and product use as a form of ego-involvement on the third-person effect in an effort to understand the variables underlying the third-person effect. The findings broaden 1 belief about the third-person effect in relation to public communication and call into question 2 others. This has ramifications in the area of public opinion regarding socially st…
Public Perceptions of Newspaper's Watchdog Role
Results from this survey indicate that advocating the watchdog role for newspapers is not linked to frequency of newspaper use. Youth and education level are associated with that role
