More Sources Create Greater Audience Engagement
Journalism quality has been examined primarily through a normative lens and investigated through descriptive methods that overlook news consumers’ actual responses to it. Taking a more empirical, media-effects approach, we explore how a particular index of journalism quality—the quantity of news sources—relates to audience engagement. The concept of multiple news sources inherently involves normative elements of quality journalism, such as being …
The Outrage Effect of Personal Stake, Effect on Children, Dread, and Controllability on Covid-19 Risk Perception Moderated by Media Use
Public response to the COVID-19 pandemic provides a unique opportunity to study how lay people’s risk perception involves their emotive responses. We investigated how outrage factors as emotional responses to risk influence levels of risk perception in the context of the pandemic disease. Furthermore, how media use influences the perception of outrage factors is also examined. A nationwide online survey (n = 1,000) was conducted in South Korea. T…
How Do Recommended Elements in Suicide News Coverage Work? An Investigation of the Effect of Responsible Reporting and Readers’ Reflectiveness on Suicide Prevention
To examine the effect of positive elements in suicide reporting guidelines, we assessed how responsible reporting on suicide (RRS) affect cognitive and intentional responses. We also investigated the moderating role of audience reflectiveness in news processing. Here, 308 individuals participated in a single-factor between-subject experiment conducted in South Korea. We manipulated the number of positive RRS features in news articles by adding su…
Little Strokes Fell Big Oaks
This study investigates how far repeated releases of recommendations for responsible reporting on suicide (RRS) are associated with changes in the quality of suicide reporting. A content analysis was conducted on suicide news articles ( N = 606) by the Korean newspapers Hankyoreh Sinmun and Chosun Ilbo in four six-month periods from 2004 to 2019, which covered the periods before and after the releases of three versions of suicide reporting guidel…
Comparing the Effect of Declarative vs. Procedural Knowledge on Health Behavior Moderated by Outrage Factors
Knowledge's effect on behavioral responses in a health crisis has been a point of inquiry in many empirical studies that obtained significant findings. However, a variety of knowledge types has been considered in these studies rarely. This study compared the effect of declarative vs. procedural knowledge on behavioral responses to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, we examined whether outrage factors, which refer to perceived risk characteristic…
The Correlation Function of Communication in an Emotional Domain Observed in the Effect of Media on Embitterment
The media correlation function has mainly been evaluated in cognitive domains from theoretical perspectives, such as agenda-setting, framing, or priming. Here we examined the correlation function in an emotional domain by investigating the association between media use and the degree of embitterment, which is a psychological symptom that originates from the accumulation of negative life experiences. A survey of 1,720 South Koreans revealed that t…
The Outrage Effect of Personal Stake, Dread, and Moral Nature on Fine Dust Risk Perception Moderated by Media Use
Outrage factors are perceived characteristics of risk that provoke emotional responses and influence risk perception by individuals. We investigated outrage factors that are associated with risk perception regarding fine dust. A nationwide online survey (N = 1,000) measured the magnitude of 14 perceived outrage factors and media use in a South Korean population. As a result, the hypothetical three outrage factors of personal stake, dread, and mor…
Investigating the negative-cognitive-triad-hypothesis of news choice in Germany and South Korea
Research has constantly revealed that depressive symptoms usually include negative cognitions about the world, the future, and the self, termed the negative cognitive triad. More recently, research on the stress generation hypothesis found that depressed individuals self-select themselves into situations that resonate with their depressive symptoms. In the present study, we combined these two discoveries, applied them to everyday news selection, …
Interaction of individual framing and political orientation in guiding climate change risk perception
There is a general agreement that climate change is a potential hazard threatening the global village. An appropriate level of risk perception should be a critical issue in coping with the global environmental risk. We examined the determinants of the level of climate change risk perception. In particular, we examined if individual framing of climate change interacts with political orientation in guiding climate change risk perception. The main e…
Outrage effects on food risk perception as moderated by risk attitude
For a deeper understanding of the dynamics of food risk perception, we examined the role of perceived outrage factors in guiding risk perception. Their interactions with risk attitude and media use were investigated as well. A nationwide survey (N = 1000) was conducted on five outrage factors (familiarity, trust, catastrophic potential, effects on children, and dread) with respect to four types of food risk (Benzopyrene in noodle soup, Norovirus …
Emerging Infectious Disease Content in Newspaper Editorials
We conducted a content analysis of newspaper editorials on the Middle East respiratory syndrome outbreak in Korea. Subject matter, social and personal efficacy information, and affective tone were evaluated using a mixed-methods approach. An analysis of 241 publications with the acronym “MERS” revealed that public health was the most salient, followed by leadership/governance, coping, medical system, and economic consequences. Societal efficacy i…
The Asymmetry in Economic News Coverage and its Impact on Public Perception in South Korea
The news media's ‘surveillance’ (Lasswell, 1960) of the economy has been a matter of concern in U.S communication research. Previous studies found that news media tended to be skewed toward negative news (Wattenberg, 1984; Harrington, 1989). Furthermore, studies found that public perception of the economy was closely associated with the news media's economic coverage (Blood & Phillips, 1995; Goidel & Langley, 1995; Hester & Gibson, 2003; Wu, Stev…
Policy or Politics? A Study of the Priming of Media Frames of the South Korean President in the Public Mind
This study content analyzed a leading Korean newspaper to examine the different framing of presidents Kim Young-sam and Roh Moo-hyun, and to look at whether there was a relationship between media framing and public opinion of the two presidents. The news stories about the presidents were analyzed in terms of topics, sources, the wording the presidents were referred to, and the content of presidential quotations. Public opinion was investigated wi…
