Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: One of the factors influencing strongly the character of the media perception is considered to be the type of political socialization. But this claim is hard to be proven. Political socialization takes place in certain socio-cultural setting and comparing cases with different socio-cultural settings introduces number of confounding variables. The post-communist countries present unique chance of comparing people who are politically socialized under radically different political systems and yet belonging to the same state, same society and same cultural background. The rapid political changes in the post-communist countries present us with cohabitation of generations that are simultaneously product of the same culture and of radically different political systems. The older generation was socialized under totalitarianism and the younger generation has experienced only freedom. Those circumstances of political socialization lead to different attitudes towards politics as a whole, political information and media in particular, as well as political discussions. The paper proposed for this panel is focused on the influence of political socialization over media perception and information processing. The research is based on focus groups of different age groups. Some of the major features of the different techniques of information processing of each age group include willingness and need for acquiring new information, emotional price of internalizing new information, perception of personal relevance of politics as such and character of interaction between old and new information. The analysis of the discussions reflects also the functions and roles of political information and political discussions.
