This study examines how attention to science and political news may influence the way people feel about an environmental risk, and how this in turn impacts policy preferences. Using an online survey conducted on the issue of fine dust pollution in South Korea, this study found that science news attention was associated with greater anxiety and anger about the issue, whereas political news attention was associated with fear and sadness/depression (as well as anxiety and anger). Furthermore, mediation analysis showed that science news attention indirectly influenced support for preventive policy through anxiety, whereas political news attention indirectly influenced punitive policy support through anger and fear. Theoretical and practical implications of this study are discussed.

这项研究考察了关注科学和政治新闻如何影响人们对环境风险的看法，以及这种看法反过来如何影响政策偏好。本研究通过对韩国细粉尘污染问题进行的在线调查发现，关注科学新闻与对该问题的更大焦虑和愤怒有关，而关注政治新闻则与恐惧和悲伤/抑郁（以及焦虑和愤怒）有关。此外，中介分析表明，科学新闻关注度通过焦虑间接影响对预防政策的支持，而政治新闻关注度则通过愤怒和恐惧间接影响对惩罚性政策的支持。本研究讨论了其理论和实践意义。
