Abstract

Some time ago, a rift arose between Sunnis and Shiites in Sampang, Madura. Then, banners spread across Yogyakarta stating that the Shia were heretical. On the internet, many websites sprang up claiming that anyone that justifies Shia is heretical. These were a form of propaganda, campaigning, or “proselytizing” that another group is deviant and infidel. This research tried to analyze the propaganda process in the media by radical groups against Shiite groups in Yogyakarta and to find out the techniques and tools used in it so that all parties could anticipate and map the potential conflicts. The research was conducted in Yogyakarta with a qualitative research type. Data collection was carried out by document review. The results showed that, first, propaganda provided a stimulus to the public to seek knowledge and information about the Shi’a group –and mainly conveyed a negative view of the Shi’a group. Second, this research found that the mechanism carried out was by providing information to the public by placing the media in strategic places. Third, the research identified that the propaganda theory used is Name-Calling, Glittering Generality, and Transfer, while the media used were billboards, banners, leaflets, and brochures.

Abstract

In An extended Cognitive Mediation Model (CMM) was constructed to examine the public's knowledge acquisition and preventive behavioral intentions during the COVID-19 pandemic in the context of social media in China. This extended CMM incorporated three additional variables compared with the original CMM: risk perception, interpersonal communication, and behavioral intention. The motivations for social media use, including surveillance gratification, guidance, anticipated interaction, and risk perception, were positively associated with social media attention, elaboration, and interpersonal communication. Elaboration and interpersonal communication were positively associated with factual and structural knowledge acquisition, which in turn positively influenced behavioral intention. Differential mediation effects were observed: significant indirect effects from motivations to factual knowledge involved elaboration and the combination of attention and elaboration, while all mediation effects from motivations to structural knowledge were significant. Furthermore, mediation paths from motivations to behavioral intention were primarily significant when involving elaboration and structural knowledge, but not factual knowledge. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
