Abstract:

Drawing upon one of the most disputed yet relevant theories in mass communication research, the agenda-setting theory and its ramifications – intermedia agenda-setting and network agenda-setting –, this project aims at revealing particularities of today’s media environment in what regards the sources of media information (intermedia agenda-setting), the way objects (topics) and attributes transfer from the media to the public agenda (network agenda-setting), and the predictors of media consumption behavior. By means of mixed methodologies, namely quantitative content analysis, semi-structured in-depth interviews, mind-mapping survey and sociological survey, the current project focuses on (1) investigating the degree of reciprocity between the traditional media agenda and the new/ social media agenda, (2) revealing the main media topics, their order of priority and the attributes associated with them, both in a period when an important event takes place and in a routine period, (3) analyzing if and how the main media topics, their order of priority and the attributes associated with them are transferred from the media to the public agenda, and (4) determining patterns of media consumption in today’s environment and how they are moderated by socio-demographic, individual and contextual variables. The main goal of the project is to investigate the characteristics of both the media and the public, in the attempt to reach comprehensive, reality-based conclusions about today’s media landscape and media effects. The value of the project is defined through the aforementioned goal, which represents a true challenge for researchers, mainly because, due to the constant evolution of technology, media and public-related issues are rather difficult to address; technological development is continually multiplying media outlets, is contributing to audience fragmentation, and even to creating the so-called “filter bubbles” or “echo chambers”.
