Abstract | Employing the community attachment model, a study hypothesized that the greater the personal experiences in and the greater the attachments to a community, the greater the reading of the local newspaper. The primary logic is that social ties and feelings of attachment generate needs for information that can be satisfied through reading of the local newspaper. Social priming is a metaphor to describe this process. Data collected through a probability survey of 349 students on a small midwest university campus support the hypotheses. Reading of the campus newspaper was higher among students who were more attached to the community and who lived on or near the campus, and reading was lower among those less attached and among commuter students. (Two tables of data and 23 notes are included.) (Author/RS) |
