Abstract

Journalism practice in China is unique and different from the rest of the other countries in the world. Many scholars have attributed this to the effective regulatory systems and the structure of the media system thus the six forces controlling media space in China. This study adopted a qualitative condensed thematic analysis technique through in-depth interviews to examine how the regulatory framework in China affects the media ecosystem and constructive journalism practice. Through the snowball technique of sampling, the researchers collected data from fifteen (N=15) senior media professionals working within private and state-owned news outlets in China, to find answers to the nature of the media system in China and how this system has influenced and shaped constructive journalism practice during the COVID-19 pandemic between November and December 2021. One of the key findings of this study indicates that the robust media regulatory system practice in China has resulted in effective interactions among stakeholders, media houses, and journalists within the Chinese media system, which has significantly contributed to attaining effective constructive journalism practices. Again, our findings suggest that the effectiveness and constant interactions of the six forces of the Chinese media system have also helped enforce professionalism, dedication to duty, and patriotism among journalists and different media outlets in China. Finally, our study reveals that the Chinese Media giants such as China Global Television Network (CGTN), China Central Television (CCTV), and China Radio International (CRI) which serve millions of global audiences are very factual in their reportage. To avoid fake news in their reportage, CGTN and China Radio International, for instance, have designed specialized fact-checking programs for their news stories before airing them for public consumption.

Abstract

This paper aims to put forward optimization strategies for the shortcomings of rural financial information dissemination, so as to improve the effectiveness of financial information dissemination in rural areas，so as to form a win-win situation of two-way financial information interaction between rural commercial banks and farmers, stimulating rural development. Under the background of rural revitalization, financial information dissemination can help financial enterprises establish brand image and promote financial products and services, which plays a significant role in getting through the "last mile" of Inclusive finance. At present, facing the dual effects of policy environment and market environment, banks and other financial institutions are altering their focus and continuously increasing the dissemination of rural financial information. However, due to the influence of multiple factors such as regional environment and audience characteristics, related products, services and financial knowledge have not been fully, sufficiently and effectively disseminated. This paper takes the communication behavior of farmers and rural commercial banks in Jiangsu as the research object.In order to integrate into consumers' life and understand consumers' exposed or potential needs, we analyze the characteristics of information communication and audience in rural areas in the form of questionnaire and written interview, and put forward targeted optimization strategies according to the problems and difficulties existing in the current actual communication, so as to improve the effectiveness of financial information communication.The innovative feature of this paper is to carry out interdisciplinary research, cross integrate the theories of Journalism and communication and finance, and apply the information communication theory in journalism and communication to the field of finance.

Abstract

This paper aims to describe how videos affect human behavior, especially teenagers and other major human beings. Given the large number of young adults who use short video social media (e.g., TikTok, Douyin, and Kuaishou) in rural China, understanding how the use of such platforms affects their subjective wellbeing is crucial. This study examines the mediating roles of online social capital and upward social comparison in the relationships between short video social media use (intensity, active vs. passive use) and subjective wellbeing using data gathered from a web-based survey of 412 young adults living in rural China. Structural equation modeling demonstrated that active short video use is associated with a greater level of online social capital, which in turn is related positively to subjective wellbeing. Passive short video use is negatively associated with online social capital. Active short video use is also associated with a greater level of upward social comparison, whereas passive short video use is negatively associated with upward social comparison. Nevertheless, the relationship between upward social comparison and subjective wellbeing is not statistically significant. Use intensity was associated with neither online social capital nor upward social comparison. The findings extend the understanding of the psychologically powerful nature of short video social media platforms and their effects on subjective wellbeing among Chinese rural young adults.

Abstract

This study aims to to classify business strategies adopted by manufacturing firms. Data were acquired by sending questionnaires to Indonesian manufacturing firms in Java. Factor and cluster analysis were performed on 435 survey data. Using principal component analysis and varimax rotation, the factor analysis identified two distinct business strategies based on Porter's generic strategy: cost leadership and differentiation. Hierarchical and K-means clustering conducted sequentially enabled the identification of three clusters of business strategy: cost leadership, differentiation, and no strategy. According to the findings, the majority of Indonesian manufacturing firms utilize the differentiation strategy, followed by the cost leadership strategy. Only a small percentage of firms employ no strategy at all. The descriptive analysis of each cluster shows that the number of firms adopting the differentiation strategy is significantly higher than those pursuing the cost leadership strategy in a number of products, including food and beverage, computers, electronic, and optical products, as well as machinery and electrical equipment. For some products, such as automotive and furniture, the percentage of firms using cost leadership or differentiation strategies is comparable. Large firms dominate both clusters. Nevertheless, there are more large firms in the differentiation cluster than in the cost leadership cluster. The findings of this study enrich the body of knowledge in the domains of strategic management and manufacturing by classifying the business strategies that help firms achieve their business objectives, particularly in the context of emerging countries.

Abstract

As patriarchy is not solely based on sexuality, energizing women requires enhancing their intellect and state of mind. It is considered a gesture of respect to refer to a married woman by the name of her husband or eldest son. Women's public participation is still deemed devalued, as evidenced by the naming of restaurants. This study examines eatery names in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, and Malacca, Malaysia, two cities with similar historical backgrounds. It aims to investigate women's efforts to improve their negotiating position in society by naming their eateries. Although two restaurants place women in powerful positions, many still need help to attain women's positions and social respect.

Abstract

This study's goal was to test performance variables for mediating the relationship between quality work-life (QWL) and job satisfaction. The population in this study was the entire village government in North Halmahera Regency. The purposive sampling technique was used because only the position of village head amounted to 121 respondents. The data was collected through surveys with questionnaires. The questionnaire instrument test used a validity test that is a factor analysis with a loading factor value of ≥ 0.5, and a reliability test with a Cronbach alpha value of ≥ 0.7. Hypothesis testing used regression and hierarchical regression. The result shows the following findings: both job satisfaction and managerial performance is affected by QWL positively and significantly; job satisfaction is positively and significantly influenced by managerial performance; and managerial performance can act as mediating variable on the relationship between QWL and job satisfaction. In conclusion, this study still has several limitations, especially regarding job satisfaction variables. Therefore, further research is suggested to investigate the implications of both the intrinsic and extrinsic job satisfaction on the quality of life variables.

Abstract

Communication mediated by social media presents content creators who have many followers who are then often called influencers. This study seeks to analyze the contributions of influencers who should act and be responsible as individuals who can convey public opinion through digital platforms. The researcher uses a qualitative research method with a critical discourse analysis approach to dismantle and reveal how influencers are strongly committed to spreading positive discourse as a form of responsibility as part of social change agents in the digital world. The object of the study is YouTube content from the accounts of Ria Ricis, Atta Halilintar, and Frost Diamond, which represent significant influencers in Indonesia. Researchers found that three significant influencers in Indonesia have not been able to carry out their duties as agents of social change. There are three reasons why influencers in this study are unable to carry out their duties and responsibilities as social change agents, namely the absence of a clear definition of the role of influencers as social change agents, the lack of understanding of influencers regarding their social responsibilities as social change agents, and the absence of an operational model that explains the concrete steps taken by influencers as effective social agents. This study provides recommendations on the duties and responsibilities of influencers as agents of social change in a model that the researcher calls the Content Development Model. This model consists of four main stages at the concept level (Input, Process, Output, and Outcome) and six execution stages at the technical level (Content Created, Interaction Distribution, Formation of Discourse, Change in Attitude and Behaviour, Collective Action and Social Change). This Content Development Model explains how influencers must produce content by considering positive social issues as agents of social change in society.

Abstract

This analysis aims to analyze publication trends related to the Uses and Gratification Theory and social media in Scopus Journal Articles from 2019-2021. The Uses and Gratification Theory analyzes the genuine social and psychological needs that generate expectations for social media use. Nearly 50 years after, the Uses and Gratification Theory in today’s research is often used in social media. According to the result, most Uses and Gratification Theory articles came from the USA, followed by China, the United Kingdom, Malaysia, and India. Meanwhile, the top five most used keywords are social media (n=130), uses and gratifications (n=68), uses and gratifications theory (n=41), Facebook(n=26), and uses and gratification theory (n=18). To conclude, these number shows the trends of publication related to Uses and Gratification Theory, mostly about social media spanning from 2019-2021. Facebook is the social media most often mentioned, but in the future, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok, as younger media, could be used as an alternative research object. It also suggested the theme of fake news and its spread, entertainment satisfaction, the rise of mobile entertainment today, and artificial intelligence in media use.

Abstract

Multicultural communities in Indonesia produce mythologies related to disease outbreaks. This study aims to map such myths and their impact on trust in COVID-19 information, assuming that trust in the myths influences trust in COVID-19 information. This research is descriptive and qualitative in nature. Data consist of big data and the results of focus group discussions (FGDs) involving participants from three generations, i.e., baby boomers, millennials, and Gen Z, in three regions. Cross-analyses were performed to examine the data. The results of the big data analysis uncover the myths about the spread, detection, prevention, and treatment of COVID-19. Likewise, the FGD analysis shows myths and superstitions around the COVID-19 pandemic, which could be prevented through religious and cultural rituals. The firm belief in the myths and poor public communication by the authorities created ambiguity. The public believes more in myths than the official information. The findings of this study can inform the formulation of culture-based health communication strategies and the optimization of public communications in a health crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic.
