Abstract

This study assessed the effects of different message framing strategies on average Americans’ attitude towards interventions in humanitarian crises abroad. Two survey experiments were conducted via Amazon MTurk between late 2019 and early 2020, where participants were randomly assigned to read a mock news story about a foreign humanitarian crisis written using one of the three framing techniques. Results of both studies indicated that the framing effect on respondents’ support for intervention interacted with ones’ political ideology and prompted distinctive reactions among different populations. Most intriguingly, the results of Study 2, which employed a non-student sample and a secondary frame, suggested that the specific order of message framings also influences public opinion towards humanitarian intervention. These findings contribute to the growing body of literature on the persuasiveness of message design and framing in the context of military humanitarian interventions (MHI). Accordingly, news organizations and policymakers are encouraged to consider these findings in specific contexts.
意识形态问题:相互竞争的信息框架对公众对人道主义干预态度的影响
本研究评估了不同信息框架策略对普通美国人对海外人道主义危机干预态度的影响。2019年底至2020年初,通过亚马逊MTurk进行了两项调查实验,参与者被随机分配阅读一篇关于外国人道主义危机的模拟新闻报道,该新闻报道使用三种框架技术中的一种撰写。两项研究的结果都表明,框架效应对干预支持的影响与政治意识形态相互作用,并在不同人群中引起不同的反应。最有趣的是,研究2采用了一个非学生样本和一个次要框架,结果表明,信息框架的特定顺序也会影响公众对人道主义干预的看法。这些发现有助于越来越多的文献在军事人道主义干预(MHI)背景下的信息设计和框架的说服力。因此,鼓励新闻机构和决策者在具体情况下考虑这些调查结果。
