Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and the Disability Resource Center: An Exploratory Review of Student Perceptions
Researchers have examined autonomous sensory meridian responses (ASMRs) focusing on known experiencers and the nuances surrounding those occurrences. This exploratory study was developed in response to existing ASMR research focusing on individuals who were not necessarily known ASMR experiencers. My goal was to better understand whether these synesthesial responses affected a student’s education. There were no statistical differences among parti…
The What, Where, and Why of Local News in the United States
With the rise of digital technology and social media, the ways in which journalism is produced, delivered, and consumed are changing rapidly, and the same is true in local media. This chapter seeks to examine the evolution, nature, promises, and limitations of local media in the context of the larger US media ecology. Specifically, this chapter will revisit the concept of ‘local news’ in conjunction with the fact that more and more people now com…
How did Americans Really Think About the Apple/FBI Dispute? A Mixed-method Study
Second-level agenda-setting suggests that news media influence how we think. As a case study examining the nature and effects of mainstream news media’s coverage of the 2015 Apple/FBI dispute about data privacy versus national security, this study found via content analysis that a majority of articles covering the dispute (73.7%) made the same potentially misleading claim about how the American public feels about the dispute. Nearly half (45.6%) …
We’re more ethical than they are: Third-person and first-person perceptions of the ethical climate of American journalists
This study advances our understanding of mainstream US journalists’ perceptions of their industry’s ethical climate by extending first- and third-person perception to this domain. These journalists believe that colleagues in their same organization act unethically significantly less often and act ethically significantly more often than those at other organizations and in related industries. The first- and third-person perceptions are a linear fun…
Commercialization of Technology News: Quantity and quality dimensions
While technology news has become a major news genre, the coverage of high-tech products has raised concerns regarding the commercialization of journalism. Drawing on salience transfer and exemplification theory, this study explores how The New York Times and USA Today covered Apple products along quantity and quality dimensions. A content analysis documented a landslide in the amount of coverage on Apple products in both newspapers. Both iPhones …
Kick the bums out: A structural equation model exploring the degree to which mainstream and partisan sources influence polarization and anti-incumbent attitudes
News Audiences Revisited: Theorizing the Link Between Audience Motivations and News Consumption
With a plethora of news outlets today, audiences have more choices than ever. Yet, academic and professional understanding of news audiences from a uses and gratifications perspective remains limited. Using a national survey (N = 1143), this study uncovers distinct news consumption patterns across 4 types of motivations, and predicts media uses across 30 sources with noticeably higher explanatory power as compared to previous uses and gratificati…
When Newsworthy is Not Noteworthy: Examining the value of news from the audience's perspective
In the history of news production, the gap between editors' news judgment and audience interest has been widely noticeable. In scholarly research, while news consumption remains a central focus, the value of news content as a product has rarely been examined from the audience's perspective. News is almost always presumed by scholars and practitioners to be of value, which, however, is not necessarily the case in today's media environment. The rec…
Minority comparison model: Effects of Whites’ multiracial evaluation on symbolic racism and racialized policy preferences
Most Racial Studies primarily focus on African Americans without paying attention to nonblack minorities, and it fails to capture recent increase in racial diversity. Based on previous theories and empirical findings, we propose a new model, minority comparison model, which accounts for theoretical shortcomings in Racial Studies. This model (1) captures psychological processes that compare blacks and nonblacks, and (2) explores the effects of whi…
Audience Clicks and News Placement: A Study of Time-Lagged Influence in Online Journalism
The rise of sophisticated tools for tracking audiences online has begun to change the way media producers think about media audiences. This study examines this phenomenon in journalism, building on a revised theoretical model that accounts for greater audience engagement in the gatekeeping process. Research suggests that news editors, after long resisting or ignoring audience preferences, are becoming increasingly aware of and adaptive to consume…
