The study aims to show how sources of information about politics and political parties affect citizens’ post-electoral expectations. The theoretical framework is from the agenda- -setting theory, which postulates that the media influence "what we think about". Based on a survey conducted on a representative sample of Croatia's citizens after the parliamentary elections in September and October 2016, the study indicates that citizens' expectations regarding the activities of the state are divided into three groups, which can also be linked to political values or worldviews: the social (welfare) state, the fortress state, and the inclusive state. The results show no positive relationships between media information sources and post-electoral expectations. Negative relationships are confirmed for the internet news sites and the post-election expectations of the fortress state, which is positively related to being informed in the family. The results speak about the early stages of political communication and political information practices in Croatia with the prevalence of television as the media source. The findings point to a limited agenda-setting effect as well as the need for modifying the research design in line with a mediatized environment and predominant use of cross-media practices.

作为主持选举后公民期望的政治人物的信息来源：2016年议会选举

该研究旨在表明有关政治和政党的信息来源如何影响公民的选举后期望。该理论框架来自议程设定理论，该理论假定媒体会影响“我们的思考”。根据对2016年9月和2016年10月议会选举后的克罗地亚公民代表性样本进行的调查，该研究表明，公民对国家活动的期望分为三类，这也可以与政治价值观或政治价值观联系起来。世界观：社会（福利）状态，要塞状态和包容性状态。结果表明，媒体信息来源与选举后期望之间没有正相关关系。互联网新闻网站和要塞州对大选后的期望得到了肯定的消极关系，这与在家人中获得知情有正相关。研究结果表明，在克罗地亚，政治传播和政治信息实践处于早期阶段，电视作为媒体源已盛行。研究结果表明，议程设置效果有限，并且需要根据中介环境和主要使用跨媒体实践来修改研究设计。
