Technological developments provide significant changes in the field of journalism, especially in the news by the mass media. The online news portal currently provides a comment column feature for news readers to comment on the existing news. This study aims to (1) look at the effect of reader comments on students' perceptions of controversial news about campus through the LINE Today feature, (2) analyze the difference in influence between positive comments and negative comments on students' perceptions of campus controversy news through the LINE Today feature. This study uses a quantitative approach with a questionnaire method to the research population. The sample is students of the Department of Communication, Faculty of Social and Political Sciences, Hasanuddin University who have accounts on the LINE application, totaling 199 people with the total sampling method. Regression analysis technique was used to see the effect of reader comments on student perceptions. To compare the effect of positive and negative reader comments, a comparative analysis technique is used, namely variance. The results showed that (1) There was a significant effect of reader comments on students' perceptions of campus controversy news through the LINE Today feature using both positive and negative stimuli; (2) There is a difference in the effect of positive and negative comments on students' perceptions of campus controversy news through the LINE Today feature.stimuli have a greater influence on student perceptions

Der Aufsatz orientiert sich an der Frage, welche Erziehungskompetenzen Familien heute angesichts der Vielfalt an Medien und Medieninhalten sowie der Gewalt in den Medien benötigen und wie diese vermittelt werden können. In diesem Zusammenhang richtet der Autor sein Augenmerk auf die Einflüsse, die das Fernsehen insbesondere auf Kinder hat, und auf die Frage, wie Eltern und Jugendmedienschutz hier steuernd einwirken können. Der Familie in Deutschland begegnen die Medien auf drei Arten: (1) Medien präsentieren sich als Helfer, indem sie Neuigkeiten und Informationen liefern oder die zwischenmenschliche Kontaktaufnahme fördern. (2) Medien, insbesondere das Fernsehen, sind Begleiter bzw. Mitglied der Familie. Auf diese Weise kann das Fernsehen tief in die Persönlichkeitsbildung von Kindern eingreifen bzw. deren Weltbild prägen. (3) Medien gelten aufgrund ihrer gewaltdarstellenden Inhalte als Gefährdung, da sie Auslöser von Gewalthandlungen der Jugendlichen sein können. Zusammenfassend stellt der Autor fest, dass trotz der Allgegenwart und Allmacht der Medien der wichtigste Einflussfaktor für die Kinder die Familie ist. Dort wo die Familie funktioniert, wo sie ihre Erziehungsfunktion wahrnimmt, wo sie den Kindern Hilfen und Orientierungen bietet, kann sie die Medien in den Schatten stellen, ohne deren Einfluss jedoch völlig beseitigen zu können.

AbstractLimited or incomplete achievement of societal aspirations, such as the realisation of sustainable development, can lead to distrust in government and the public sector. This paper takes an empirical approach to uncover (1) what factors influence public decision‐makers, (2) if such factors apply equally irrespective of the decision, and (3) which are most important. Thirty‐five interviews of public servants within the subnational State of Victoria, Australia, yield 40 common influences upon decision‐makers. Collectively, these influences result in an unmanageably complex operating environment. Statistical and network mapping analyses further demonstrate decision context and decision‐maker self‐efficacy impact influence importance.Points for practitioners
Forty different influences make the public sector operating environment incredibly complex; they explain why public outcomes can deviate from stated objectives.
These influences vary in impact (barriers, enablers), scale, and importance, pending the decision context and the self‐efficacy of the decision‐makers involved.
While distinct factors, the 40 influences often operate in concert, with some masking others; decision‐makers themselves may not recognise the most important factors upon their work without deep reflection.
Far from being at the mercy of the influences, decision‐makers can shape public outcomes by recognising the influences on their decisions and seeking to engage them as enablers of optimal decisions.
Applying systems thinking may enable widespread public decision‐making improvements, through the identification of high‐value leverage points.
International audience ; The aim of the Groupe des Dix (named after the 10 founders), set up in France in 1969, was to strengthen relationships between science and politics. Between 1969 and 1976, researchers and politicians held informal meetings which were intended to provide politicians with more rational decision-making tools. The prospect of a global crisis and the ill-suited nature of "classic" politics to solving this crisis were prominent themes in the attempt to link science and politics and to seek solutions "without calling on ideologies such as Marxism or structuralism". Thus these "science and politics" encounters, using a trans-disciplinary approach, set out to elaborate a new system of interpretation, a "new reference grid". The influence of this group can be appreciated through the impact of the different publications of each of its members, and also by the influence of one of its members, Jacques Attali, who became special advisor to the President of the Republic from 1981 to 1991. It was in this setting that he proposed the creation of CESTA, the Centre d'études des systèmes et des technologies avancées that led to the development of a European technological cooperation project, Eurêka, which celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2015. Via its action for the promotion of new technologies, CESTA also took part in the development of cognitive sciences in France by organizing in 1985 the first conference associating computer science, psychology and neurobiology. ; L'objectif du Groupe des Dix, créé en 1969, était d'intensifier les relations entre science et politique. Des chercheurs et des hommes politiques ont participé, entre 1969 et 1976, à des rencontres qui avaient pour but d'aider les politiques à prendre des décisions de façon plus rationnelle. L'influence du Groupe des Dix peut s'évaluer à travers l'impact des différents ouvrages rédigés par chacun de ses membres, mais aussi par la création du Centre d'études des systèmes et des technologies avancées (Cesta) sur proposition de Jacques Attali, ...

Influencer sind prägende Figuren der digitalen Aufmerksamkeitsökonomie. Typisch für sie ist eine exzessive Selbstdarstellung, die zu kommerziellen Zwecken genutzt wird, dabei aber mit dem Versprechen von Authentizität einhergeht. Influencer kommunizieren scheinbar auf Augenhöhe mit ihren Followern. Der Beitrag entwickelt eine kritische Sichtweise, in der vor dem Verlust einer unversehrten Persönlichkeitsentwicklung gewarnt wird. Sowohl die Influencer selbst als auch ihre Follower könnten Gefahr laufen, sich den Imperativen eines digitalen Marktes auszuliefern, auf dem Authentizität strategisch eingesetzt und als Verkaufsargument genutzt wird.

PurposeIncreasing followers' positive word-of-mouth (PWOM) is a critical means through which social media influencers (SMIs) marketers can increase SMIs' follower count. Studies have reported that authenticity and credibility increase followers' PWOM and have identified the dimensions of authenticity (i.e. originality, naturalness and continuity) and credibility (i.e. attractiveness, trustworthiness and expertise). However, the mechanisms underlying the associations among these dimensions are unclear. Drawing from social exchange theory, the authors developed an integrated conceptual model and explored how the dimensions of SMI authenticity affect those of followers' perception of credibility. Moreover, the authors analyzed how followers' perception of credibility affects the followers' PWOM behavior.Design/methodology/approachThe authors collected 463 valid questionnaires from respondents that followed at least one SMI. Additionally, the authors developed a structural equation model for data analysis.FindingsThe results revealed that the subdimensions of SMI authenticity have different effects on followers' perception of credibility. An SMI's continuity positively affects followers' perceptions of the SMI's trustworthiness and expertise. The naturalness of an SMI positively affects followers' perception of the SMI's attractiveness but nonsignificantly affects followers' perception of the SMI's trustworthiness. Additionally, an SMI's originality positively affects followers' perception of the SMI's attractiveness but negatively affects followers' perception of the SMI's trustworthiness. Finally, followers' perceptions of an SMI's attractiveness, trustworthiness and expertise all positively affect followers' PWOM behavior.Originality/valueBy employing multidimensional constructs, the authors obtained results that provide a comprehensive understanding of the effects of SMI authenticity on the SMI's followers' perception of followers' credibility. These results can be used by SMIs to increase SMIs followers' PWOM by determining which aspects of authenticity and credibility SMIs should develop.

For three decades new social movements have undergone scrutiny from political scientists with much written about why social movements exist and how they attract members. However little has been done on the influence of these mass mobilisations. In this paper I investigate normative and empirical statements about social movements in order to develop a way to measure the influence of these phenomenon. Current social movement literature provides few tools that can be used to measure social movement influence. I will argue that the influence of mass mobilisations on the political realm can be measured using discourse analysis techniques and by looking to public policy literature. I will then test this methodology by looking at the influence of the New Zealand women's movement on debates surrounding child care and unpaid work.
