The model characterizes voter learning from the news as a process driven by motivation, necessitated by exposure, and enhanced by attention and elaboration. With data collected from a sample of 455 respondents, the study tested the proposed model. Media exposure was found to have direct and indirect effects on attention, elaboration, and knowledge about the elections. The model was basically supported. Theoretical implications of the findings are discussed. | 關聯: | International Journal of Public Opinion Research, Vol. 20, Issue 3, pp. 347-362, 2008 | 資料類型: | article |
