摘要

中国青年--"移动互联网一代"--越来越多地通过移动社交媒体偶然接触到新闻。本研究基于偶然新闻接触理论和对 41 名中国青年的半结构式访谈，从受众中心的角度归纳探讨了偶然新闻接触对社交媒体上新闻多样性和表达的影响。研究结果质疑了以往关于偶然新闻接触对民主化的积极影响的结论，证明了偶然新闻接触对新闻多样性和公民表达的潜在负面影响。本文指出了产生这些影响的可能原因，强调了公民对官方信息来源的信任和中国社交媒体审查环境的影响。

The effects of incidental news exposure on social media on Chinese youth: News diversity and online expression

Chinese youths––the “mobile internet generation”––are increasingly exposed to news incidentally through mobile social media. Based on the theory of incidental news exposure and semi-structured interviews with 41 Chinese youths, this study inductively explored the effects of incidental news exposure on news diversity and expression on social media from an audience-centered perspective. The results question previous findings of positive impacts of incidental news exposure on democratization, evidencing potential negative effects of incidental news exposure on news diversity and civic expression. This paper indicates possible reasons for those effects, highlighting the influence of citizens’ trust in official information sources and the social media censorship environment in China.
