Unmaking inequality in the age of anti-wokeism
This study examines why sexualised discrimination and violence persist in the cultural and media industries despite the momentum of the #MeToo movement. Drawing on 58 expert interviews across five regulatory levels in Germany’s performing arts and music sectors, the study analyses stakeholder assessments of safeguarding measures and priorities for reform. Although policy development has accelerated, findings show that implementation remains fragm…
Flattering compliments and savage insults – The influence of vicarious intergroup contact on minority (outgroup) support considering empathy as a mediating mechanism
Minderheitsgruppen in einer Gesellschaft, etwa nationale, ethnische oder religiöse Minderheiten, sind häufig auf die Unterstützung anderer Gruppen – sogenannter Outgroups – angewiesen, um ihre Interessen durchzusetzen und sozialen Wandel herbeizuführen. Soziale Medien bieten vielfältige Möglichkeiten für stellvertretenden Intergruppenkontakt, der als niedrigschwelliges Mittel zur Förderung von Fremdgruppenunterstützung angenommen wird. Diese Stud…
How (Gendered) Media Portrayals of Refugees Affect Attitudes Toward Immigration. The Moderating Role of Political Ideology
Isolated Incidents. Media Reporting on Violence Against Women in the German Press
Violence against women is a prevalent issue worldwide, even in countries highly ranked on Gender Equality indices. Every third day, a woman in Germany is killed by an intimate partner, and many experience sexual violence at least once in their lifetime. How media report violence against women is significant for understanding the extent of violence in society and for requesting solutions in the public. This study analyzes the salience of violence …
Mistakenly misinformed or intentionally deceived? Mis‐ and Disinformation perceptions on the Russian War in Ukraine among citizens in 19 countries
In information environments characterized by institutional distrust, fragmentation and the widespread dissemination of conspiracies and disinformation, citizens perceive misinformation as a salient and threatening issue. Especially amidst disruptive events and crises, news users are likely to believe that information is inaccurate or deceptive. Using an original 19‐country comparative survey study across diverse regions in the world (N = 19,037),…
Does News Frame Affect Free Movement Attitudes? A Comparative Analysis
The policy of free movement—one of the core principles of the European Union—has become increasingly politicized. This makes it more important to understand how attitudes toward free movement are shaped, and the role of the media. The purpose of this study is therefore to investigate how news frames affect attitudes toward free movement, and whether education moderates framing effects. The findings from a survey experiment conducted in seven Euro…

Now you see me, now you don’t
Reading media headlines and articles about migration, one quickly gets the impression that the media discourse is focussed on migrant men. To investigate to what extend this perception actually holds true, in this study we examine the visibility of gender in media coverage about migrants. We present a validated keyword-based dictionary that allows for automatic and reliable measurement of migrants' salience (i.e., women, men) in German news cover…
The Impact of Negative Parasocial and Vicarious Contact with Refugees in the Media on Attitudes toward Refugees
Contact with members of outgroups is an important factor for ingroup members’ attitudes toward these groups. Ingroup members can also come into contact with outgroups in the media. This media contact can take different forms: parasocial contact, when the audience simply observes outgroups; or vicarious contact, when ingroup audience members witness fellow ingroup members interacting with outgroups. However, extant research does not test whether t…
The European media discourse on immigration and its effects
To understand public opinion about immigration in Europe, one has to understand the media’s role in it. We present a literature review on research on media discourse on immigration and their effects. Despite differences in the way immigration and migrant groups are represented in European media, we can observe common patterns. Migrants are generally under-represented and shown as delinquents or criminals. Although, media framing differs based on …

The impact of personal experience in cultivation
People's perception of reality is essentially based on two different sources: Personal experience and mass media content. This paper contributes to the understanding of how these two sources are related when shaping reality estimations (demographic fact knowledge) and attitudes (victimization fears and mean world attitudes). Drawing on a cultivation study based on quotas representative for the German population aged 18 and above (n = 236), three …

All Student Samples Differ
When conducting experiments, researchers in communication science often rely on convenience samples of students. This study provides evidence consistent with a concern that between-participant differences in exposure to communication theories can be a threat to the internal validity of conclusions reached. Using cultivation theory as a context for studying this threat, this study examines the influence of stage in university education and discipl…
