Žurnāla “Reliģiski-filozofiski raksti” XXXIII laidiens veltīts Latvijas sabiedrības vērtību analīzei salīdzinošā perspektīvā.

2020
espanolSe investiga el papel de la revista satirica El Papus, contrapoder informativo durante la Transicion espanola, en la detraccion de la lacra social del machismo.

Mass Communications as a Vehicle to Lure Russian Émigrés Homeward
2011
After the millions of wartime displaced citizens had been forcibly returned to the Soviet Union after the Second World War, the Soviet Union inaugurated a new type of campaign in the mid-1950s to get all the remaining Soviet citizens and former émigrés from Sovietoccupied areas to migrate back. In this campaign, the Soviets used all the means of mass communication they were able to produce, especially radio combined with the press and direct contact with people. The campaign was not very successful, at least not among the people it was supposed to lure back: people residing in Europe. However, many people, especially from Latin America, migrated back to the Soviet Union, only to be disappoi…
Does a Crisis Change News Habits? A Comparative Study of the Effects of COVID-19 on News Media Use in 17 European Countries
2021
Abstract: Exogenous shocks like the COVID-19 pandemic unleashes multiple fundamental questions about society beyond public health. Based on the classical concept of 'need for orientation' and the literature on the role of the media in times of crisis, we investigate to what extent the COVID-19 pandemic affected news consumption in comparative perspective. Based on a two-wave panel survey in 17 mostly European countries, our study targets the role of both legacy news brands (TV, radio, newspapers) and so-called contemporary news media (Internet-based and social media) during this global health crisis. Our results show an overall rise of news use across countries, but only for some types of n…
Median kulutuksen vaikutus suomalaisten luottamukseen julkisia instituutioita ja kanssaihmisiä kohtaan
2012
Luottamuksen on havaittu olevan erittäin merkittävä yhteiskunta koossa pitävä ja kehittävä voima. Se voi hyvinkin olla Pohjoismaiden menestyksen salaisuus. Tässä tutkielmassa pureudutaan empiirisin tilastomenelmin median eri tyyppien parissa vietetyn ajan ja yhteiskunnallisen luottamuksen väliseen yhteyteen Suomessa. Aihetta ei kirjoitushetkellä ole muualla juuri tutkittu Suomen aineistoa käyttäen. Tutkimuksen päähavainnot ovat, että sanomalehtien luku on yhteydessä yksilön korkeaan yhteiskunnalliseen luottamukseen, ja television katselu vastaavasti enteilee alhaista luottamuksen tasoa.
Appetizer or main dish? Explaining the use of Facebook news posts as a substitute for other news sources
2019
An increasing number of, especially younger, users use Facebook as their primary source for news about political and societal issues. At the same time, research suggests that Facebook use contributes to societal knowledge gaps. Against this background, we investigate the antecedents of using Facebook as a substitute for other news sources. We argue that exposure to news posts on Facebook increases the feeling of being well-informed, regardless of actual knowledge acquisition. This might lead users, especially those with a low need for cognition (NfC), to use Facebook as a substitute for other news sources. We test these assumptions with an online survey (n=390) of German Internet users. Res…
