Science on Television in the 21st Century: Recent Trends in Portrayals and their Contributions to Public Attitudes toward Science
论文题名译名
21世纪电视上的科学：最近的趋势及其对公众对科学态度的贡献
摘要
Twenty-five years after George Gerbner and colleagues’ seminal report on television and science attitudes, there is a need to update the data on television’s portrayals of science and to revisit the cultivation question. We address this need by analyzing 21st-century television depictions of science and examining the relationships between exposure to television and attitudes toward science with an analysis of 2006 General Social Survey data. Content results show that scientists appear infrequently in prime-time dramatic programs, are typically White males, and are frequently cast in good or mixed roles rather than as evil scientists. Regarding the cultivation effect, we do not find a significant direct relationship between television viewing and negative attitudes toward science after relevant controls are taken into account. Additional results, however, indicate a displacement effect of television viewing on science attitudes and show significant interaction effects consistent with mainstreaming.
中文摘要
在 George Gerbner 及其同事关于电视和科学态度的开创性报告发布 25 年后，有必要更新有关电视对科学的描述的数据并重新审视培养问题。我们通过分析 21 世纪电视对科学的描述，并通过对 2006 年综合社会调查数据的分析来研究电视曝光与对科学的态度之间的关系，从而满足这一需求。内容结果显示，科学家很少出现在黄金时段的戏剧节目中，通常是白人男性，并且经常扮演好角色或混合角色，而不是邪恶的科学家。关于培养效果，在考虑相关控制后，我们没有发现电视观看与对科学的消极态度之间存在显着的直接关系。然而，其他结果表明看电视对科学态度有替代作用，并显示出与主流化一致的显着交互作用。
