摘要
本文研究了社交媒体内容如何塑造了全球公众对国家的表述。基于世界体系理论,研究调查了 2018 年 X(原 Twitter)上国家提及率的潜在预测因素。研究证实,经济实力较强或在世界体系中地位较高的国家被提及的次数较多。此外,人口较多的国家和经历过重大冲突的国家被提及的频率更高。结构方程建模的研究结果为我们揭示了驱动各个国家在社交媒体上表现的相互关系,并勾勒出了 "国家在 X 上被提及的综合模型"。
Does world system theory rein in social media? Identifying factors contributing to country mentions on X
This article examined how social media content has shaped the representation of countries for publics around the world. Based on world system theory, the study investigated the underlying predictors of country mentions on X (formerly Twitter) in 2018. It confirmed that countries with greater economic power – or higher status in the world system – received more mentions. Furthermore, countries with larger populations were mentioned more frequently as were countries that experienced major conflicts. The findings from structural equation modeling shed new light on the interrelationships that drive the social media representation of individual countries and delineated an integrated Model of Country Mentions on X. These findings have implications for global leaders, policymakers, and social media firms.
