Maintenance and Reformation of News Repertoires: A Latent Transition Analysis
- 2022
-
In: Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly. - : SAGE Publications. - 1077-6990 .- 2161-430X. ; 99:1
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Today’s media environment provides people ample opportunities for constructing news habits fitting their preferences, but our knowledge about the dynamics of such news habits is limited. Using a four-wave panel survey from Sweden and taking a news repertoires approach, the study identifies four groups of news users labeled Public service-oriented traditionalists, Minimalists, Engaged pluralists, and Quality-oriented explorers, which are each related to news interest, trust in mainstream news media, and socio-demographic factors in distinct ways. The news repertoires are highly stable, even during profound contextual change, showing that people most often maintain their news habits and only seldom reform them.

Do not stand corrected : Transparency and users’ attitudes to inaccurate news and corrections in online journalism
- 2017
-
In: Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly. - : Sage Publications. - 1077-6990 .- 2161-430X. ; 94:1, s. 148-167
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The accelerating news cycle means there is a risk that errors become more common, but digital media also allow for correcting errors continuously and being transparent about this. In this study, we investigate Swedish citizens’ attitudes toward errors and corrections. The results demonstrate that citizens have strong expectations that news media publish correct information and they have little tolerance for errors. People’s background and media use do not affect attitudes toward errors and corrections to any large extent, but media trust explains a small fraction of the results—It is only those who already trust the media that appreciate corrections.

Trusting the Facts: The Role of Framing, News Media as a (Trusted) Source and Opinion Resonance for Perceived Truth in Statistical Statements
- 2022
-
In: Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly. - : SAGE Publications. - 1077-6990 .- 2161-430X.
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Scholars have raised concerns that on many issues, citizens are reluctant to trust factual evidence and statistics. One factor that has been shown to impact the perceived truth in statistics is how they are presented, where negatively framed statistics are perceived as truer than positive. This study explores when this bias applies and not. Results from a survey experiment confirm the presence of a negativity bias in truth perceptions, but also that effects are heterogeneous and moderated by, in particular, the recipients’ preexisting opinions. These findings provide valuable information to public actors responsible for disseminating factual information to diverse publics.

Did It Really Happen? How the Public Interprets Journalistic Disclaimers
- 2020
-
In: Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly. - : SAGE Publications. - 1077-6990 .- 2161-430X. ; 97:4
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Immediately following dramatic events, news reporting must be both fast and accurate. In an attempt to reconcile the inherent conflict between these two ambitions, journalists often use disclaimers, for example, “unconfirmed” or “reports of.” These disclaimers allow for the rapid publication of less than reliable content. The results from our survey experiment suggest that strong disclaimers, as intended, do lower the perceived reliability of stories among news consumers. Furthermore, the results indicate that the context influences the effectiveness of disclaimers. It appears that in a crisis environment, such as after a large terrorist attack, individuals are less sensitive to disclaimers.

The Reciprocal Effects Between Political Interest and TV News Revisited: Evidence From Four Panel Surveys
- 2019
-
In: Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly. - : SAGE Publications. - 1077-6990 .- 2161-430X. ; 96:2, s. 473-496
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Although research shows that there is a correlation between political interest and news media use, whether there are reciprocal effects between political interest and news media use remain unsettled. To remedy this and go beyond previous research, this study seeks to investigate the reciprocal relationship between political interest and TV news use (a) across elections, (b) across election periods and a nonelection period, and (c) comparing public service and commercial TV news. Using four representative panel surveys, findings show that there is a reciprocal relationship between political interest and watching public service but not commercial TV news.

Does News Frame Affect Free Movement Attitudes? A Comparative Analysis
- 2021
-
In: Journalism & Mass Communication Quarterly. - : SAGE Publications. - 1077-6990 .- 2161-430X. ; 98:3, s. 725-748
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The policy of free movement—one of the core principles of the European Union—has become increasingly politicized. This makes it more important to understand how attitudes toward free movement are shaped, and the role of the media. The purpose of this study is therefore to investigate how news frames affect attitudes toward free movement, and whether education moderates framing effects. The findings from a survey experiment conducted in seven European countries show that the effects are few and inconsistent across countries. This suggest that these attitudes are not easily shifted by exposure to a single news frame.

Book Review: Constructive Journalism: Precedents, Principles and Practices, by Peter Bro.
- 2024
-
In: Journal of Mass Communication Quarterly. - USA : Sage Journals. - 1077-6990. ; 101:2, s. 569-571
-
Review (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Peter Bro's book: Constructive Journalism: Precedents, Principles and Practices uses a historical approach to discourse the contemporary constructive journalism's foundational principles, conceptualization and future trajectory. To do this, Bro draws on key seminal figures in the action journalism movement, thereby illuminating the active journalism continuum within which constructive journalism is situated. While the book offers a working definition of constructive journalism, it also illuminates the need for a more refined definition of what constructive journalism entails, and how it ought to be practised. Nonetheless, overall the book makes a significant contribution to the contemporary constructive journalism movement, and by extension the greater socially responsible journalism movement.

Ultra low noise YBa2Cu3O7-delta nano superconducting quantum interference devices implementing nanowires
- 2014
-
In: Applied Physics Letters. - : AIP Publishing. - 0003-6951 .- 1077-3118. ; 104:7
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present results on ultra low noise YBa2Cu3O7-delta (YBCO) nano Superconducting QUantum Interference Devices (nanoSQUIDs). To realize such devices, we implemented high quality YBCO nanowires, working as weak links between two electrodes. We observe critical current modulation as a function of an externally applied magnetic field in the full temperature range below the transition temperature T-C. The white flux noise below 1 mu Phi(0)/root Hz at T = 8K makes our nanoSQUIDs very attractive for the detection of small spin systems.
