This study employs a three-wave panel survey in Sweden to test the Differential Susceptibility to Media Effects Model (DSMM) regarding crime perceptions. It assesses DSMM using political ideology as a susceptibility variable, revealing ideology's role as a predictor of news media use and in shaping citizens' perceptions. This paper investigates how this process depends on socio-economic and socio-cultural dimensions. Results lend partial support for assumptions made by the DSMM, indicating that individuals rely on their ideological predispositions in news selection. This work highlights ideology's role in selective exposure and its role in evolving crime perceptions, emphasizing the importance of individualized modeling in understanding media effects in an expanding media landscape.
本研究采用瑞典的三波面板调查来检验关于犯罪认知的媒体效应差异敏感性模型(DSMM)。它以政治意识形态作为敏感性变量来评估DSMM,揭示了意识形态在预测新闻媒体使用以及塑造公民认知方面的作用。本文研究了这一过程如何依赖于社会经济和社会文化维度。结果为DSMM所做的假设提供了部分支持,表明个体在新闻选择中依赖于他们的意识形态倾向。这项工作突出了意识形态在选择性接触中的作用及其在犯罪认知演变中的作用,强调了在不断扩展的媒体格局中理解媒体效应时进行个性化建模的重要性。
