摘要

认为“新闻会找到我”(NFM)的人往往不太积极地消费传统媒体，更喜欢在线和社交媒体上的新闻。随着时间的推移，NFM还与较低的政治知识和政治参与有关。然而，还有待观察的是，高nfm个体是否真的不太可能在网上看到新闻。这项预先注册的研究填补了这一文献空白，在美国成年人浏览一个模拟新闻网站时，不引人注目地记录了选择行为，其中包括各种硬新闻和软新闻故事。与我们的假设一致，NFM与更多的软新闻曝光有关。此外，我们还研究了特定类型的NFM信念是否会减少对这些新闻类型的曝光。我们在科学新闻的背景下发现了对这一假设的支持，但对于政治新闻，这种关系取决于所呈现的新闻故事。

Tuning Out (Political and Science) News? A Selective Exposure Study of the News Finds Me Perception

Individuals harboring perceptions that the “news will find me” (NFM) tend to be less active consuming traditional media, preferring news online and on social media. NFM has also been linked with lower political knowledge and political participation over time. What remains to be seen, however, is whether high-NFM individuals are in fact less likely to expose themselves to news once they do encounter it online. This preregistered study fills this gap in the literature by unobtrusively logging selection behaviors while U.S. adults browsed a mock news website featuring various hard and soft news stories. Consistent with our hypothesizing, NFM was associated with greater exposure to soft news. Additionally, we examined whether genre-specific NFM beliefs would predict less exposure to those news genres. We found support for this hypothesis in the context of science news, but for political news, this relationship depended on the news stories presented.
