摘要

本研究关注的是之前在文献中发现的三种当代另类用户对新闻的态度:“新闻找到我了”、“信息就在那里”和“我不知道该相信什么”。它分析了用户的媒体不信任和社交网络同质感知作为每种考虑态度的预测因素的作用。其次，本研究还考虑了上述态度对不同新闻话题中用户兴趣的影响。最后，比较了上述态度在它们之间的相互影响。在西班牙Facebook用户中开展了一项调查(n = 279)。数据通过多元回归检验进行分析。结果显示，媒体不信任正向预测“The Information Is Out There”，但对“News Finds Me”和“I Don 't Know What To Believe”不相关。“新闻发现我”消极地预测了人们对硬新闻(国内、国际政治和经济)的兴趣，“信息在那里”预测了人们对生活方式新闻和名人故事的兴趣。任何观察到的态度都不能预测到感知到的网络同质性。在“信息就在那里”和“新闻找我”之间发现了相互影响，但在“我不知道该相信什么”之间没有发现影响。我们得出的结论是，“信息在那里”可能对政治知识和参与产生与“新闻找到我”相同的负面影响，因为它将用户从硬新闻项目转向软话题。

Alternative approaches to news: the role of media distrust, perceived network homophily, and interests in news topics

This study focuses on three contemporary alternative users' attitudes to news previously detetected in the literature: 'News finds me', 'The information is out there' and 'I don't know what to believe. It analyzes the role of users' media distrust and social network homophily perception as predictors of each considered attitude. Secondly, the study also considers the effect of the mentioned attitude on user's interests in different news topics. Last, it compares the reciprocal influence of the aforementioned attitudes among them. A survey (n = 279) was developed among Spanish Facebook users. Data was analysed through multiple regression test. Results show that media distrust positively predicted “The Information Is Out There” but was not relevant in the cases of “News Finds Me” and “I Don’t Know What To Believe”. “News Finds Me” negatively predicted interest in hard news (domestic, international politics, and economy), and “The Information Is Out There” predicted interest in lifestyle news and stories about celebrities. Perceived network homophily was not predicted by any of the observed attitudes. A reciprocal influence was detected between “The Information Is Out There” and “News Finds Me” but no influence was identified from or to “I Don’t Know What To Believe”. We conclude that “The Information Is Out There” may have the same negative effects on political knowledge and participation that “News Finds Me” as it drives users away from hard news item and towards softer topics.
