Abstract

ABSTRACT An ethnically diverse society calls for an in-depth understanding of national identity construction. This study investigates the perception of Chinese national identity among a group of ethnic Tibetans living in Southwest China. It identifies an indirect relationship between Chinese media use and Chinese national identity through the mediation of media trust and the moderation of age. The moderated mediation model shows that media use does not directly affect the perception of Chinese national identity among the ethnic Tibetans. Instead, it is indirectly related to Chinese national identity via media trust. The relationship between media trust and Chinese national identity is also moderated by a respondent’s age, with the relationship stronger among younger than among older respondents. The moderated mediation model is significant after controlling for respondents’ gender, general education, religiosity, perceived discrimination, bilingual education and peer influence.
媒介的力量:媒介使用对藏族人中国民族认同的间接影响
摘要:一个种族多元化的社会需要深入理解民族认同的建构。本研究调查了居住在中国西南地区的藏族群体对中国民族认同的认知。它通过媒体信任和年龄调节的中介作用,确定了中国媒体使用与中国民族认同之间的间接关系。适度中介模型表明,媒体使用不会直接影响藏族对中国民族认同的认知。相反,它通过媒体信任与中国的民族认同间接相关。媒体信任与中国民族认同之间的关系也受到受访者年龄的调节,年轻受访者的关系比年长受访者更强。在控制了受访者的性别、普通教育、宗教信仰、感知歧视、双语教育和同伴影响后,调节中介模型具有显著意义。

期刊介绍: National Identities explores the formation and expression of national identity from antiquity to the present day. It examines the role in forging identity of cultural (language, architecture, music, gender, religion, the media, sport, encounters with "the other" etc.) and political (state forms, wars, boundaries) factors, by examining how these have been shaped and changed over time. The historical significance of "nation"in political and cultural terms is considered in relationship to other important and in some cases countervailing forms of identity such as religion, region, tribe or class. The focus is on identity, rather than on contingent political forms that may express it. The journal is not prescriptive or proscriptive in its approach.
