摘要

摘要本研究通过嵌入调查小组的准实验,探讨了Twitter上精英话语对公民情感两极分化的影响。在2019年西班牙欧洲议会选举期间,参与者被邀请关注来自主要政党的九名候选人的推特账户之一。使用网络跟踪数据(被动测量)确认参与者的实验依从性。结果表明,通过自我选择接触候选人的Twitter账户不会增加情感两极分化。尽管高度的两极分化可能有助于建立回音室,但党派推特账户中包含的两极分化内容对日益加剧的情感两极分化没有影响,即使在那些强烈认同这些政党的人中也是如此。这一发现证实了所谓的社交媒体有限媒体效应假说。

Twitter and Affective Polarisation: Following Political Leaders in Spain
ABSTRACT The present study addresses the effect of the discourse of elites on Twitter on citizens’ affective polarisation through a quasi-experiment that was embedded in a survey panel. Participants were invited to follow one of the Twitter accounts of nine candidates from the main political parties during the 2019 European Parliament electoral campaign in Spain. Experiment compliance among participants was confirmed using web-tracking data (passive metre). The results show that exposure to candidates’ Twitter accounts by self-selection does not increase affective polarisation. Although high levels of polarisation might contribute to building echo chambers, the polarising content contained in the partisan Twitter accounts has no effect on increasing affective polarisation, even among those who strongly identify with such parties. This finding confirms the so-called limited media effect hypothesis for social media.
