本文考察互联网使用对公众社会风险感知的影响。研究发现,是否使用和依赖网络作为主要信息渠道,以及对网络使用与依赖程度的差异,均对公众的社会风险感知不产生显著影响。这表明,社会风险已经泛化在社会生活中,媒介使用的差异已经不能导致公众风险感知的差异。本文因此提出政策管理建议,对网络和传统媒体的管理应适当改善,使其适当地宽松以推进舆论监督,才是遏制和化解社会风险的途径。 This article examines the impact of Internet use on public perceptions of social risk. The study found that whether using and relying on the Internet as the main channel of information or not, and the difference in network usage and dependence, all have no significant impact on the public’s perception of social risk. This shows that social risks have been generalized in social life, and the differences in the use of media can no longer lead to differences in public risk perception. Therefore, the article puts forward the policy management proposals, and the proper management of the network and traditional media should be properly improved so that it can be properly relaxed to promote public opinion supervision, which is the way to contain and resolve social risks.
