Abstract

Abstract. This study tested the Politicized Identification Model of Intention to Vote as an integrated model of political participation and self-determination theory to understand what motivates young people to vote and inform policy and communication efforts. The results of path analyses on survey data from a representative sample of 1,960 young Italians (age range, 20–35 years) revealed that participative efficacy positively and negatively predicted internalized motivation and amotivation, respectively. In addition, politicized identification mediated the positive relation between the internalized motivations and intention to vote. Finally, amotivation negatively predicted voting intention. Civic education campaigns should promote young people’s awareness that they can contribute to society by voting (i.e., participative efficacy) and support internalized motivations to vote.
自主投票意向与政治化认同的中介作用
摘要本研究将投票意向的政治化认同模型作为政治参与和自决理论的综合模型进行测试,以了解是什么激励年轻人投票,并为政策和沟通工作提供信息。对1960名意大利青年(年龄范围20-35岁)代表性样本的调查数据进行路径分析的结果显示,参与效能对内化动机和动机分别有正向和负向预测。此外,政治认同在内化动机与投票意向的正向关系中起中介作用。最后,动机负向预测投票意向。公民教育运动应促进青年人认识到他们可以通过投票对社会作出贡献(即参与效能),并支持投票的内化动机。
