摘要

摘要:美国黑人新兴成人在Twitter用户中占很大比例,社交媒体是一个重要的发展背景。媒体研究调查了黑人群体的Twitter使用情况,发展研究也考虑了社交媒体的重要性,但关于黑人新兴成年人对Twitter的发展使用的研究却很少。这项混合方法研究(1)将黑人新成人使用Twitter的原因追溯到新成人的发展方面,(2)探讨这些原因是否因网络和发展特征而不同。数据收集自203名黑人新生成人。定性(即开放式回答)和定量(即自我报告问卷)数据均通过在线调查收集。六个定性类别描述了参与者使用Twitter的动机:人际关系、身份探索、独立性、经济可能性、娱乐、应对和健康。使用Twitter寻求独立的参与者具有更高的批判性媒体素养。使用Twitter进行娱乐和身份探索的参与者对自己是黑人的感觉更积极,在种族身份的其他方面也有所不同。研究结果表明,Twitter被新兴的黑人成年人用来实现发展目标,Twitter使黑人用户能够以有意义的方式探索他们的种族身份。

"Speak[ing] My Mind": Reasons for Using Twitter and the Online Experiences, Critical Media Literacy, and Racial Identity of Black American Emerging Adults
Abstract: Black emerging adults in the United States make up a significant proportion of Twitter users and social media is an important developmental context. Media research has examined Black populations’ Twitter use and developmental research has considered social media writ large, but less research exists on Black emerging adults’ developmental uses of Twitter. This mixed methods study (1) traced reasons for Black emerging adults’ Twitter use to developmental aspects of emerging adulthood, and (2) explored whether these reasons differ by online and developmental characteristics. Data were collected from 203 Black emerging adults. Both qualitative (i.e., open-ended response) and quantitative (i.e., self-report questionnaire) data were collected via an online survey. Six qualitative categories described participants’ motivation for using Twitter: relationships, identity exploration, independence, financial possibilities, recreation, and coping and wellness. Participants who used Twitter for independence had higher critical media literacy. Participants who used Twitter for recreation and for identity explorations felt more positively about being Black and differed in other aspects of their racial identity. Findings suggest that Twitter is used by Black emerging adults to achieve developmental goals and that the Twitter empowers Black users to explore their racial identity in meaningful ways.

期刊介绍: Journal of Media Psychology (JMP) is committed to publishing original, high-quality papers which cover the broad range of media psychological research. This peer-reviewed journal focuses on how human beings select, use, and experience various media as well as how media (use) can affect their cognitions, emotions, and behaviors. Submissions must substantially advance the current state-of the art on a theoretical and/or an empirical level. To name just a few typical fields and domains of inquiry, the Journal of Media Psychology considers manuscripts dealing with research on entertainment, computer-mediated communication (including social media), human-computer interaction, e-learning, computer and video games, virtual environments, or advertising. The journal is also open to research from neighboring disciplines as far as this work ties in with psychological concepts of the uses and effects of the media. Submissions of comparative work, e.g., crossmedia, cross-gender, or cross-cultural, are encouraged. Moreover, submissions including alternative analysis procedures such as the Bayesian approach are welcome. Starting in 2015, the pre-registration of research plans will also be possible. To ensure short turn-around cycles for manuscript review and fast publication, the Journal of Media Psychology relies heavily upon electronic communication and information exchange, starting from electronic submission and continuing throughout the entire review and production process.
