Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: This study garnered initial evidence for the pro-civic impact of the Internet in mainland China by analyzing three cross-sectional datasets collected in 2003, 2005, and 2007. Results revealed positive relationships between the two dimensions of Internet use (i.e., informational and entertainment use) and online expression. Our model explains the positive associations as being partially conditioned by two mediators, online network size and Internet efficacy. This observed relationship was found to vary from year to year, although the magnitude of the variation was limited. We found that Internet use had the potential to augment pro-civic social changes in China within the repressive reign of the state power.
