摘要

这项研究使用两波面板数据（Nw1&w2 = 574）收集在佛兰德青少年（14-19）中。结构方程分析表明，在线气候变化参与积极预测了IE 4 几个月后，但不是相反。IE与在线参与度没有显著关系4 几个月后，无论对气候的兴趣程度如何。然而，我们观察到气候利益的先行作用；更高的气候兴趣反映在更多的在线气候变化参与中。此外，IE转化为青少年更高水平的在线气候变化参与，他们报告了高水平的强制性同伴规范。这些发现表明，社交媒体正在加强而不是均衡在线气候变化参与方面的差距，并表明性格因素和社会因素如何在塑造青少年偶然的社交媒体曝光和在线参与方面相互作用。

Reciprocal Relationships Between Adolescents’ Incidental Exposure to Climate-Related Social Media Content and Online Climate Change Engagement

This study examined whether incidental exposure (IE) to climate content on social media can foster online climate change engagement among mid-to-late adolescents, using two-wave panel data ( Nw1 & w2 = 574) gathered among Flemish adolescents (14–19). Structural equation analyses indicated that online climate change engagement positively predicted IE 4 months later, but not vice versa. IE did not significantly relate to online engagement 4 months later, irrespective of level of climate interest. However, we observed an antecedent role for climate interest; Higher climate interest was reflected in more online climate change engagement. Moreover, IE translated into higher levels of online climate change engagement among adolescents reporting high levels of injunctive peer norms. These findings suggest that social media are reinforcing rather than equalizing gaps in online climate change engagement and demonstrate how dispositional and social factors interact in shaping adolescents’ incidental social media exposure and online engagement.

期刊介绍： Empirical research in communication began in the 20th century, and there are more researchers pursuing answers to communication questions today than at any other time. The editorial goal of Communication Research is to offer a special opportunity for reflection and change in the new millennium. To qualify for publication, research should, first, be explicitly tied to some form of communication; second, be theoretically driven with results that inform theory; third, use the most rigorous empirical methods; and fourth, be directly linked to the most important problems and issues facing humankind. Critieria do not privilege any particular context; indeed, we believe that the key problems facing humankind occur in close relationships, groups, organiations, and cultures.
