International communication: On the significance of borders in the digital borderless world——Tristan Mattelart, Yu Hong, Stegania Milan, Daya K Thussu, Herman WassermanIn this Dialogue, we reproduce the discussions held during a plenary session that took place during the International Association for Media and Communication Research (IAMCR) conference organized in Lyon in July 2023. Hosted by Tristan Mattelart, this session brought together four distinguished speakers who have all worked extensively, with different perspectives, on the processes of international communication: Yu Hong, Stefania Milan, Daya K Thussu, and Herman Wasserman. It addressed some of the most pressing issues in the field of international communication: the key role played by some global digital corporations in the building of the so-called digital “borderless” world, the latter’s growing multipolarity, the ambivalent nature of the transnational digital flows crossing it, and the continuing importance of borders and States.摘要:在本文中,我们重现了于2023年7月在里昂举办的国际媒体与传播研究协会(IAMCR)会议期间举行的全体会议上的讨论情况。该会议由Tristan Mattelart主持,汇集了四位杰出学者,他们都曾以不同的视角在国际传播过程中开展过广泛工作,他们分别是Yu Hong、Stefania Milan、Daya K Thussu 和 Herman Wasserman。会议讨论了国际传播领域中的一些紧迫问题:某些全球数字公司在构建所谓的“无边界”数字世界中所发挥的关键作用、这一世界日益增长的多极化、跨国数字流动的矛盾性质以及边界和国家的重要性持续存在。https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20570473241256256COVID-19 vaccines and vaccinations coverage on news portals: Framing, Tone, and Source Analysis
——John Demuyakor , Stevens Justice Avenyo and Adwoa Sikayena AmankwahA comparative quantitative content analysis was adopted to explore the frames, tones, and information sources for the coverage of COVID-19 vaccines and vaccination in four countries in Africa. The news portals and countries for this study were purposively sampled based on the World Press Freedom Index released by Reporters Without Borders for 2021. Namibia, South Africa, Ghana, and Botswana are among the top ten countries in Africa with the best Media Freedoms. The findings showed that Ghana’s news portals’ coverage of COVID-19 vaccines and vaccination campaigns used mainly unofficial sources in the coverage of COVID-19 vaccines and vaccination stories, whereas Botswana, Namibia, and South African media used official sources. Other findings show that Ghana’s news portals covered COVID-19 vaccines and vaccination stories in a negative tone and employed conflict and economic consequence frames. Botswana, Namibia, and South African news portals, however, adopted neutral and positive tones and framed them according to human interest, responsibility, and morality. The results suggest that the text of the news articles from the four African countries’ coverage of the COVID-19 vaccines and vaccination adopted different generic framing styles, and the tones were predominantly a mixture of positive, neutral, and negative.摘要:本研究采用了比较性定量内容分析的方法,以探讨非洲四个国家对COVID-19疫苗和疫苗接种报道中的框架、语调和信息来源。该研究根据无国界记者组织发布的2021年世界新闻自由指数有针对性地抽取了新闻门户和国家。纳米比亚、南非、加纳和博茨瓦纳是非洲新闻自由度排名前十的国家。研究结果显示,加纳的新闻门户在报道COVID-19疫苗和疫苗接种时主要使用非官方来源,而博茨瓦纳、纳米比亚和南非的媒体则使用官方来源。其他结果表明,加纳的新闻门户在报道COVID-19疫苗和疫苗接种时采用了负面语调,并使用了冲突和经济后果框架。然而,博茨瓦纳、纳米比亚和南非的新闻门户则采用了中立和正面语调,并根据人类利益、责任和道德框架进行报道。结果表明,这四个非洲国家对COVID-19疫苗和疫苗接种的新闻报道采用了不同的通用框架风格,其语调主要是正面、中立和负面语调的混合。https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20570473231225299The rise of digital platforms as a soft power apparatus in the New Korean Wave era
By employing digital soft power as a theoretical framework, this article examines the increasing role of domestic digital platforms in the New Korean Wave and their contributions to cultural diplomacy. It discusses the ways in which digital soft power becomes the primary vehicle in cultural diplomacy related to the Korean Wave. As there are tensions and conflicts between these private platforms and the Korean government, this article critically analyzes the crucial relations between these two major parties in executing cultural diplomacy and digital soft power. As its methodological framework, the utilization of social media by the Korean government, particularly by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was used. It selects the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ Facebook posts between 1 January and 31 December of 2022 to determine the ways in which the Korean government utilizes social media as a soft power tool. It develops discourse analysis in tandem with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ Facebook posts to determine several major strategies the Korean government has advanced in the digital platform era.摘要:本文采用数字软实力作为理论框架,研究了国内数字平台在新韩流中的日益重要作用及其对文化外交的贡献。文章讨论了数字软实力如何成为与韩流相关的文化外交的主要载体。鉴于这些私人平台与韩国政府之间存在紧张和冲突,本文批判性地分析了这两大主体在执行文化外交和数字软实力方面的关键关系。作为其方法框架,本文使用了韩国政府,特别是外交部对社交媒体的利用。本文选取了2022年1月1日至12月31日期间外交部的Facebook帖子,以确定韩国政府如何利用社交媒体作为软实力工具。通过对外交部Facebook帖子的语篇分析,本文肯定了韩国政府在数字平台时代提出的几项主要策略。https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20570473241234204The dark side of smartphone application’s smart push function: Exploring its impact on fear of missing out and smartphone addiction
——Qiuyue He and Zhonglu ZengThis article aims to investigate the negative effects of smart push technology, which is becoming increasingly popular in digital devices and online services, particularly in smartphone-based applications (apps). Specifically, empirical relationships among the features of the app content delivered by smart push technology, fear of missing out, and smartphone addiction are explored by constructing an integrated model. The proposed relationships were tested by analyzing survey-based data collected from 227 valid samples through partial least squares-structural equation modeling. The analysis confirmed the hypothesized positive relationships among the features of app content delivered by smart push technology (entertainment and timeliness) in smartphone-based apps, fear of missing out, and smartphone addiction. Moreover, fear of missing out served as a mediator between the features of smart push technology and smartphone addiction. This study makes a significant theoretical contribution to the digital communication technology and smartphone addiction literature by revealing the influence mechanism of smart push technology on smartphone addiction. Furthermore, this study has a number of practical implications for policymakers as well as app developers.摘要:本文旨在研究智能推送技术的负面影响,这种技术在数字设备和在线服务中越来越流行,特别是在基于智能手机的应用程序(应用)中。具体而言,通过构建一个综合模型,探讨智能推送技术传递的应用内容特征、错失恐惧症和智能手机成瘾之间的实证关系。通过偏最小二乘-结构方程模型分析从227个有效样本中收集的基于调查的数据,测试了所提出的关系。分析证实了基于智能手机的应用中智能推送技术传递的应用内容特征(娱乐性和时效性)、错失恐惧症和智能手机成瘾之间的假设正相关关系。此外,错失恐惧症在智能推送技术特征与智能手机成瘾之间起到了中介作用。本研究通过揭示智能推送技术对智能手机成瘾的影响机制,为数字通信技术和智能手机成瘾文献作出重要的理论贡献。此外,本研究对政策制定者和应用开发者具有多方面的实际意义。https://doi.org/10.1177/20570473241239359Narrative and non-narrative persuasion, confirmation bias and presentation order in online media: Understanding the effectiveness of disconfirmation messages
Integrating the theories of confirmation bias, narrative persuasion, and presentation order, this study examines how the format of disconfirmation and confirmation messages and the presentation order of these messages in online media change the opinions of individuals who initially supported in-person classes for Fall 2020. A 2 (confirmation message: narrative vs. non-narrative) × 2 (disconfirmation message: narrative vs. non-narrative) × 2 (order: disconfirmation message first vs. second) between-subjects online experiment found that delivering a disconfirmation message after a confirmation message was more effective in eliciting attitude and belief change than delivering it prior to a confirmation message. Moreover, such a recency effect was more pronounced when the disconfirmation message was non-narrative, and the confirmation message was in a narrative format. The theoretical and practical implications for message design and placement in a competitive information environment were discussed.摘要:本文结合了确认偏见理论、叙事说服理论和呈现顺序理论,研究了在线媒体中证伪和确认信息的格式及其呈现顺序如何改变最初支持2020年秋季面授课程的个人的观点。通过一项2(确认信息:叙事与非叙事)× 2(证伪信息:叙事与非叙事)× 2(顺序:先证伪信息与后证伪信息)的被试间在线实验发现,在确认信息之后传递证伪信息比在确认信息之前传递更有效地引发态度和信念的改变。此外,当证伪信息是非叙事的而确认信息是叙事格式时,这种近因效应更为显著。本文讨论了在竞争性信息环境中信息设计和布局的理论和实际意义。https://doi.org/10.1177/20570473241246290Social media communication and public engagement in different health crisis stages: The framing of COVID-19 in Chinese official media
——Wenze Lu and Sing Bik Cindy NgaiEffective government social media communication plays a crucial role in mitigating public panic amid various public health crises, such as the H1N1 pandemic, the Ebola epidemic, the Zika epidemic, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. A research gap exists in investigating government official social media communication strategies and effects on public engagement a specific COVID-19 crisis stages. This study examines the COVID-19 communication strategies the Chinese government used and the corresponding effects on public engagement at different COVID-19 crisis stages on social media. The Crisis and Emergency Risk Communication Model, Framing Theory, and Situational Crisis Communication Theory are combined to develop a conceptual framework. Content analysis and coding were performed on two dimensions: health content theme (four sub-dimensions) and transparent communication style (three sub-dimensions). Public engagement was measured by the number of shares, comments, and likes. The results indicate a strong need for disease prevention information at the initial event/maintenance and resolution stages, while reassurance and government actions are highly valued at the resolution stage. Interactive features promote public engagement in key crisis stages.摘要:有效的政府社交媒体沟通在缓解各种公共卫生危机(如H1N1流感大流行、埃博拉疫情、寨卡病毒疫情以及正在进行的COVID-19大流行)中的公众恐慌方面起着至关重要的作用。在研究政府官方社交媒体沟通策略及其在特定COVID-19危机阶段对公众参与的影响方面存在研究空白。本研究考察了中国政府在COVID-19不同危机阶段使用的沟通策略及其对社交媒体上公众参与的相应影响。本文结合了危机与紧急风险沟通模型、框架理论和情境危机沟通理论,以开发一个概念框架。内容分析和编码在两个维度上进行:健康内容主题(四个子维度)和透明沟通风格(三个子维度)。公众参与通过分享、评论和点赞数量来衡量。结果表明,在事件初期/维护和解决阶段,对疾病预防信息的需求很强烈,而在解决阶段,公众高度重视安抚信息和政府行动。在关键危机阶段,互动特征促进了公众参与。https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/20570473241246291communication-public@zju.edu.cnhttp://journals.sagepub.com/home/ctphttp://journals.sagepub.com/loi/ctphttps://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/ctp
