运用问卷调查法发放问卷600份,对新疆广汇男篮的主场观众观看比赛的动机与消费特点进行调查,调查结果显示,新疆广汇男篮的主场观众观看比赛的动机具有“消遣型”、“兴趣型”、“感受型”、“支持型”动机特征,同时显示主场观众消费具有以下特点：1.观众普遍认为球票价格高于自己的消费能力;2.观众获取球赛信息的途径较单一;3.观众群体趋于单一,尤其是知识群体的大学生球迷较少。     

基于受众画像的新型耦合社交网络谣言传播模型研究

[目的/意义] 移动互联网时代谣言传播模式发生了巨大的变化,一方面谣言的扩散已不再局限于孤立的线下人际关系网络或线上互联网,谣言在耦合网络之间的传播变得更加普遍。另一方面,以往通过概率方式研究谣言的传播存在很大的不准确性,受众的个体特征差异对谣言的传播起到了更重要的作用。本文针对上述现象进行了研究。[方法/过程] 以受众的年龄作为两种网络的耦合依据,提出基于受众年龄的新型谣言传播的耦合社交网络（ASCN）。从受众的认知能力、匿名程度、权威性等基本特征,以及受众的从众心理、记忆效应、好友的影响作用等心理特征方面对受众进行画像,构建多维度函数实现基于受众画像的谣言传播模型。[结果/结论] 基于ASCN对本文提出的模型进行模拟仿真。结果表明,ACSN能够真实地反应出当前网络环境下谣言传播呈现出的"线下引起线上共鸣"、"线上溢散线下"的特征;受众的基本特征和心理特征能够对谣言传播产生巨大的影响,能更好地反映社交网络中谣言的传播规律。     

“人本”视域下的赛场观众管理

2008年北京奥运会虽已经圆满结束,但有关赛场观众的“人本”管理却是近期研究的热点。时类型复杂多变的观众进行“人本化”管理既是构建和谐社会的需要,也是我国体育事业健康发展的必然要求。对此,研究认为可通过以下几方面进行努力：加强相关知识的宣传,提高群众的认识和学习水平;建立健全法律机制,加强执法力度用以维护“以人为本”理念的落实;对管理者进行业务培训,真正做到人民利益至上;对赛场观众的管理要区别对待,因人而异;满足观众的舍理需求,促进观众的全面发展。     

论健美健身受众的角色定位及其转型促进

健美健身运动人群可分为非受众、准受众和受众几种类型。其中,健美健身受众又分为健身受众、健美受众和竞技选手受众几种水平。不同类型、不同水平的健美健身受众体现着不同的目标追求和动机水平。基于此,文章提出实现健美健身参与人群由较低目标向较高目标水平递进,或促使受众角色意识和角色定位正向性转型以提升运动目标层次与效果的策略和举措。     

当前我国大众传媒对受众认识的误区及相应的建议

随着媒介竞争日趋加剧,我国大众传媒对受众认识陷入多个误区:一是对受众层次多样性的认识单一化,低估受众,导致新闻媒介定位低俗;二是缺乏对单个受众个体需求多样性的认识,只求娱乐功能的满足;三是一味消极、被动迎合受众需要而缺乏积极、主动引导。对此,我们必须采取相应的解决办法,使传媒获得最佳的社会效益和经济效益。     

市场经济体制下我国体育新闻受众的需求特点及其与传媒关系辨析

处于市场经济大潮中的我国新闻传媒业正从往日的官办新闻不断地步入市场,开始接收市场经济的洗礼与考验。国内传媒业之间的竞争逐步加剧,新闻媒体与受众间的关系也在发生着微妙的变化。随着我国加入WTO,不仅会出现国内众新闻媒体间的拼争,更要面临国际传媒巨头的进入带来的竞争     

“Stop sending your kids across our border:” Discursively constructing the unaccompanied youth migrant

The recent migration of 65,000 children across the southwestern border, coupled with allegations of abuse by the U.S. Border Patrol, enables the investigation of an overlooked immigrant category: the unaccompanied youth migrant. Analyzing audience responses to news reports of the abuse, we find that established disparaging immigrant tropes apply, describing the children as an economic burden, disease carriers, and offspring of irresponsible families. We uncover two new themes: Youth migrants are channels whereby criminals may infiltrate the U.S., and manipulate legal authorities to remain in the U.S. Finally, we demonstrate how global compassion is strategically deployed to qualify harsh retaliatory measures.     

Fifty Years of Super Bowl Commercials,Thirty-Two Years of Spectacular Consumption

Abstract

This article will explore the role and visibility of advertising during the Super Bowl over the years as a model for strategies of modern advertising and the resulting commercialization of US society. It uses the concepts of ‘spectacular consumption’ derived from Guy Debord and the ‘commodity audience’ from Dallas Smythe to frame the commercials’ cultural transformation and influence. The spectacular nature of Super Bowl commercials and the special commodity worth of its audience were not present in the early days of the event, but gained momentum with Super Bowl XVII and its airing of Apple’s ‘1984’ commercial that became mythologized in the advertising industry. After 1984, both the rising inflation-adjusted CPM (‘cost-per-thousand’) and the increased media coverage indicate an increased spectacularization. This also manifested in such phenomena as the influential, decades-long Doritos user-generated content contests and the Greatest Super Bowl Commercials TV specials, and was a forerunner of such post-millennial advertising strategies as branded entertainment and content marketing, all designed to integrate advertising as a legitimate form of entertainment culture and prevent the avoidance of advertising by audiences.     

Measuring the value of theatre for Tyneside audiences

What values do theatre and dance hold for audience members? And how do these values differ between subsidised, amateur, and commercial performance? This paper addresses these questions through a survey of over 1800 spectators for theatre and dance in Tyneside in northeastern England, as well as a parallel set of focus groups, in the spring of 2014. These methods, which are designed for comprehensiveness and comparability, are being used across Europe by the Project on European Theatre Systems, a working group of theatre sociologists. Our research showed two sets of values which performances achieved; one was a common measure of performance quality, while the other described the values particular to subsidised work. This allows us to articulate both the general value of the arts and the particular values which subsidy (attempts to) facilitate. This has implications for both understandings of cultural value and for cultural policy, as the distinction between the two groups was not clean. We also found that amateur theatre participated in the same value system, but with an increased emphasis on loyalty and community cohesion. The paper concludes a methodological reflection on the use of quantitative methods in theatre studies.     

Cultural Trends of Audience Online Interaction with Vocal Talent Shows: A Comparative Study between China and the US

This study examined cultural reflections online of audience comments on social network sites regarding vocal talent shows in China and the United States. The study applied dimensions of cross culture to investigate audience comments on the official social networking sites of The Voice of China and The Voice. Findings reflect Hofstede’s dimensions as applied to social media and illustrate how individuals alter their “local” cultural norms in the new media environment. The study specifically enhances the exploration of cultural manifestations in cyberspace, which fewer cross-cultural studies have researched.
