ABSTRACT

This study draws from cognitive theories of learning to examine the role of different forms of television news viewing in political knowledge. Data from two-wave panel data reveal that performing an additional task unrelated to television news, or task-irrelevant second screening, is related to detrimental cognitive outcomes. Unlike past research, performing an additional task relevant to television news, or task-relevant second screening, does not contribute to political learning. Television news exposure is positively related to political learning. Theoretical implications of the results are discussed.

您如何观看电视新闻很重要：对第二次放映和新闻政治学习的小组分析

摘要

本研究借鉴了学习的认知理论，以检验不同形式的电视新闻观看在政治知识中的作用。来自双波面板数据的数据显示，执行与电视新闻无关的附加任务或与任务无关的二次筛选与有害的认知结果有关。与过去的研究不同，执行与电视新闻相关的附加任务，或与任务相关的二次筛选，对政治学习没有贡献。电视新闻曝光与政治学习呈正相关。讨论了结果的理论意义。
