Abstract:
|
This study explored the link between young adults’ perceptions and intentions toward news. It surveyed 1,222 students at two large universities and found that five years from now young adults expect to get less of their news from social-networking sites and more from traditional media—especially newspapers. A factor analysis revealed that perceptions toward the future of news have five dimensions: Time and Effort Consuming, Satisfying Civic and Personal Needs, Socially Useful, Devoid of Fun, and Biased. |
