Abstract

Abstract In Nordic countries and beyond, there exists a lack of longitudinal, population-level research focused on sociopolitical polarisation and the proliferation of new online activities in the context of changing media usage. In this article, we examine media usage in Finland in 2007 and 2018. We use two nationally representative surveys (N = 1,388 in 2007 and N = 1,425 in 2018) to make comparisons over time and include a wide set of media usage indicators. Applying multiple correspondence analysis, we assess the impact of the proliferation of online activities on the structure of the space of media usage and examine whether the association between media usage and sociopolitical divisions has become more sharply pronounced. The results suggest stability of the structure of media use rather than dramatic change. We discuss these results by reflecting on the relatively strong persistence of “traditional” models of stratification in digital cultural consumption and media practices.
2007年和2018年芬兰媒体使用空间:网络活动对其结构的影响及其与社会政治分裂的关联
在北欧国家及其他地区,缺乏关注社会政治两极分化和媒体使用变化背景下新在线活动激增的纵向、人口水平研究。在本文中,我们研究了2007年和2018年芬兰的媒体使用情况。我们使用两项具有全国代表性的调查(2007年N = 1388, 2018年N = 1425)来进行长期比较,并包括一系列广泛的媒体使用指标。运用多重对应分析,我们评估了网络活动的扩散对媒体使用空间结构的影响,并考察了媒体使用与社会政治分歧之间的联系是否变得更加明显。结果表明,媒体使用的结构是稳定的,而不是剧烈的变化。我们通过反思数字文化消费和媒体实践中相对较强的“传统”分层模型来讨论这些结果。
