社会资本、阶层认同与公民媒介接触——基于CGSS2017数据的实证分析

Social Capital, Class Identity, and Citizen Media Exposure—An Empirical Analysis Based on CGSS2017 Data

本文利用2017年中国社会调查数据(CGSS2015)分析了在新媒体时代下社会资本与阶层认同对于公民媒介接触的影响。在社会资本测量上,本文选取“社会信任”、“朋友社交”、“邻居社交”三个层次的变量进行测量;在阶层认同上,本文选取公民对自身社会地位的认知进行测量。研究发现,阶层认同对公民的电媒与互联网媒介接触具有显著影响,而社会信任并不对公民媒介接触造成影响,朋友社交与邻居社交会对公民的互联网媒介接触具有显著影响。

This paper analyzes the influence of social capital and class identity on citizens’ media exposure in the new media era using the 2017 Chinese General Social Survey (CGSS2015). In terms of social capital, this paper selects three levels of variables: “social trust”, “friends’ socialization” and “neighbors’ socialization” to measure;in terms of class identity, this paper measures citizens’ perception of their own social status. The study finds that class identity has a significant effect on citizens’ contact with electronic media and Internet media, while social trust does not affect citizens’ media exposure, and friends’ socialization and neighbors’ socialization have a significant effect on citizens’ media exposure.
