This book investigates news use patterns among five different
generations in a time where digital media create a multi-choice
media environment. The book introduces the EPIG Model
(Engagement-Participation-Information-Generation) to study how
different generational cohorts' exposure to political information
is related to their political engagement and participation. The
authors build on a multi-method framework to determine direct and
indirect media effects across generations. The unique dataset
allows for comparison of effects between legacy and social media
use and helps to disentangle the influence on citizens' political
involvement in nonelection as well as during political campaign
times. Bringing the newly of-age Generation Z into the picture, the
book presents an in-depth understanding of how a changing media
environment presents different challenges and opportunities for
political involvement of this, as well as older generations.
Bringing the conversation around political engagement and the media
up to date for the new generation, this book will be of key
importance to scholars and students in the areas of media studies,
communication studies, technology, political science and political
communication.
