  • Cognitive and emotional dimensions of perceived risk characteristics, genre-specific media effects, and risk perceptions: the case of H1N1 influenza in South Korea

    • Authors: Sang-Hwa Oh; Hye-Jin Paek; Thomas Hove (2015)

  • This study explicates the mechanism underlying the process through which news and entertainment media shape people’s personal- and societal-level risk perceptions. It combines the psychometric paradigm with the impersonal- and differential-impact hypotheses, highlighting the roles that cognitive and emotional dimensions of risk characteristics play in risk perceptions. Analysis of an online survey among 384 adults from the general population of South Korea in the context of H1N1 flu yields three major findings: (1) exposure to news media is positively correlated with the cognitive dimension of risk characteristics, while exposure to entertainment media is positively correlated with both the cognitive and the emotional dimensions of risk characteristics; (2) the emotional but not the...

  • Theoretical and methodological patterns of third-person effect research: a comparative thematic analysis of Asia and the world

    • Authors: Ven-Hwei Lo; Ran Wei; Xiao Zhang; Lei Guo (2016)

  • Third-person effect (TPE) hypothesis is a theory of increasing global appeal to media effects scholars. To assess the research trends and methodological patterns of TPE studies on Asia and the world’s other regions, this study content-analyzed 147 articles published in 10 leading communication journals between 1983 and 2015. Results reveal Asia as a popular site for the robust TPE research (41 articles focused on Asia). The most popular topics in Asia were pornography and news about social events. The results further indicate that survey was the most used method in TPE research conducted in Asia. In addition, U.S.-based authors dominated the overall TPE research. But authors from Asian institutions have a greater presence in Asia-focused studies testing the hypothesis. TPE researc...

  • Cognitive and affective risk perceptions toward food safety outbreaks: mediating the relation between news use and food consumption intention

    • Authors: Minsun Shim; Myoungsoon You (2015)

  • Much research on risk perception and health behavior has examined cognitive dimensions of risk but not affective dimensions. To address this gap, this study examines both cognitive risk perception (perceived risk of susceptibility and severity) and affective risk perception (worry) in the context of food safety risks in East Asia. We investigate their roles in independently and jointly predicting intention to consume outbreak-associated food products, as well as mediating the influences of news exposure and attention on intention. Data from a nationwide survey in South Korea (N = 1500) lent overall support for our hypotheses in both cases of processed food from China and seafood from Japan. Our findings show: (1) both perceived risk and worry were negatively associated with food co...

  • How to persuade adolescents to use nutrition labels: effects of health consciousness, argument quality, and source credibility

    • Authors: Zhuowen Dong (2015)

  • This study tested the utility of the Elaboration Likelihood Model (ELM) in creating effective public service announcements (PSAs) of nutrition label use. Students (N = 169) from a secondary school in Hong Kong participated in a 2 × 2 × 3 (health consciousness: high vs. low × argument: informational vs. testimonial × source: expert vs. celebrity vs. ordinary person) factorial design experiment. Hypotheses were partially supported. Main effect was located for health consciousness. Adolescents with high health consciousness were more persuaded by the PSAs. There was an interaction effect between health consciousness and source. A dietitian as the source was most persuasive to people with high health consciousness, while low health conscious people were most influenced by a celebrity. T...

  • The Pivotal Role of AJC in the Growth of Communication Research in Asia: A semantic network analysis

    • Authors: Daewook Kim; Soo-Yeon Kim; Myung-Il Choi (2016)

  • This study explored how Asian communication scholarship has evolved by using semantic network analysis on keywords in titles of publications in Asian Journal of Communication (AJC) from 1990 to 2015. It also compared those results with the results of a similar analysis of Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly (JMCQ) to find both Western and unique aspects of AJC. AJC scholarship has shown its Asian uniqueness by exploring social and cultural comparisons focusing on a few East Asian countries. It has also followed Western communication scholarship by investigating effects of political communication and news media, as well as advertising using television in the United States, similar to JMCQ. AJC contributes to mainstream mass communication scholarship while keeping its own A...

  • Communication message cues and opinions about people with depression: an investigation of discussion on Weibo

    • Authors: Weirui Wang; Yu Liu (2015)

  • A content analysis was conducted of the posts generated by mass media organizations and public opinion leaders on the Chinese social media platform Sina Weibo to investigate the associations between several communication message cues and opinions about people with depression (N = 102). The study revealed that the posts of the influential users were more likely to be stigmatizing when they communicated stereotypes, but less likely to be stigmatizing or more likely to be supportive when they made personal, genetic and medical, and social and environmental cause and responsibility claims. The posts were also more likely to be supportive if the influential users presented treatment and recovery information. In addition to finding out what communication cues activate the influential user...

  • Cosmetic surgery as a commodity for ‘sale’ in online news

    • Authors: Miri Moon (2015)

  • A controversial but increasingly prevalent aspect of media research suggests that the media contributes to the demand for plastic surgery procedures in modern society. This study analyzes the online news content on cosmetic surgery procedures in Korea. Data were collected from ‘Naver,’ the largest Korean portal news archive, from 2007 to 2013. Based on the findings from a quantitative content analysis, the number of articles that pertain to plastic surgery has dramatically increased each year, and since 2007, more than 60% of the news articles portrayed plastic surgery in a positive light. News articles also used strategic patterns to include promotional content. The findings suggest that amid journalism in a highly market-driven environment that struggles to reconcile its role a...

  • Taking stock and showcasing communication research on Asia for a global audience

    • Authors: Ran Wei (2016)

  • Communication research on Asia has enjoyed remarkable growth at the turn of the twenty-first century. Scholarly interest in Asia has grown largely due to the economic and cultural rise of China and India. Then, what are the implications of Asia’s rising global power for communication scholars, in Asia and around the world?

This special issue takes stock of accomplish-ments in communication research on Asia for the global audience, examines some enduring issues, and points out new directions for future research.
