Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Based on Kim et al.�s model of deliberative democracy, a contextual model of discursive democracy is proposed in this study, examining the circumstances under which political conversation took place during the 2004 presidential election. It is argued that models of discursive democracy should be domain specific, incorporating situational factors that prompt people to talk about politics. Political efficacy and campaign news attention were examined as catalysts to the contextual model. It was found that both internal political efficacy and attention to campaign news coverage are relevant to discursive democracy during an election campaign. Two structural equation models were formulated to examine the direct and indirect effects between variables. The model without opinionation was found to be a better model for the purposes of this study.
