Photojournalists publish images they have created in news publications and on social media, and images captured by ordinary citizens sometimes appear in journalism spaces. This study examines how the professionalism of a photograph’s authorship and presentational context influence the perceived credibility of the image using a two (photographer; staff or amateur) by two (image presentational context; news site or social media) quasi experiment. The small difference in how respondents rate the credibility of the images suggests that, broadly, participants in this study are willing to accept newsworthy images as credible on social media, and social media images as credible in the news.

衡量表现语境和图像作者身份对具有新闻价值图像可信度感知的影响

摄影记者在新闻出版物和社交媒体上发布他们创作的图像，而普通公民拍摄的图像有时也会出现在新闻空间中。本研究使用二（摄影师、工作人员或业余爱好者）乘二（图像呈现背景、新闻网站或社交媒体）准实验，研究照片作者的专业性和呈现背景如何影响图像的感知可信度。受访者对图像可信度的评价存在微小差异，这表明，总体而言，这项研究的参与者愿意接受具有新闻价值的图像在社交媒体上的可信度，以及社交媒体图像在新闻中的可信度。
