Based on network agenda-setting theory, this study attempted to analyze media reports about suicide from 2000 to 2020 in order to find solutions for suicide problem in the Korean society. Results showed that top 10 key words in media were suicide, death leap, death, attempt, supposition, discovery, men, pessimism. Those key words were appeared similarly and contunually in the media. In addition, both newspapers and broadcastings had similar reports trend, so it is plausible to consider inter-media agenda setting relations between newspapers and broadcasings.

그동안 커뮤니케이션 효과에 관한 많은 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 특히 의제설정 관련 이론들은 맥콤과 쇼(McCombs & Shaw, 1972)[1]에 의해 최초의 연구가 발표된 이후, 수백 편 이상의 관련 연구들이 축적되어 왔다. 이러한 연구들을 통해서 미디어가 중요하게 보도한 의제는 수용자 의제에 많은 영향을 미친다는 사실을 누구도 부정하기 어렵다. 그러나 이러한 연구들은 주로 언어텍스트를 중심으로 이루어져왔다. 그러나 신문이나 인터넷 미디어와는 달리, TV 미디어에서 수용자들은 언어텍스트에 의해서만 정보를 얻는다고 보기는 어렵다. 본 연구는 텔레비전 뉴스 보도에서 영상과 자막이 수용자의 의제설정 효과에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 실험을 통해 검증해보고자 한다.

In a situation where news usage through YouTube is rapidly increasing, this study investigated which attributes of issues news producers prominently report on based on the two-stage agenda setting theory to empirically investigate the influence of various news producers on YouTube. Through the research results, we confirmed that broadcasters have the influence to set the agenda and form public opinion on YouTube, and discovered the possibility of a two-stage agenda setting effect occurring in the YouTube environment. We criticized whether news producers abuse emotional words due to their partisanship when reporting political issues, and discussed that an emotional approach to political issues can have a negative impact on news users' perception of reality.

The purpose of this study is to analyze which group led the process of agenda setting of teacher's certification system in China from 1978 to 2018 using the Cobb & Elder's theoretical model. The period of about 40 years from 1978 to 2018 is divided into the introduction period of teacher's certification period (1978~1992), transition period (1993~1998), and stabilization stage (1999~2018). The agenda setting process was analyzed. As a result, the group that led the process of agenda setting of the Chinese teacher's certification system varied according to the period. The introduction period of teacher's certification system was analyzed as 'Inside Access Model' led by policy makers and government, and the transition period was confirmed as 'Mobilization Model' led by Chinese government and Ministry of Education. The stabilization period was analyzed as 'Outside Initiative Model' led by various groups such as mass media, researchers, and government. It was found that the process of agenda setting of teacher's certification system had been changing toward democratization according to the degree of development of Chinese society, and the quality control of teacher certifications had been strengthened.

Based on the theory of news media's agenda-setting function, this study analyzed Korean public's most important problems (MIP) and the degree of public consensus on the importance of those MIP's. The analysis was done in terms of both time and social strata. According to the findings, economy, social welfare, and political issues were in the for tier of the MIP list. The analysis of issue diversity (H-statistic) also demonstrated a relatively high degree of agenda consensus among Korean public despite some fluctuation in the consensus level, which appears to be higher than that among the American public. A decrease in the degree of agenda consensus with the passage of time appealed to be a general phenomenon across diverse social strata. However, the degrees of consensus-building were different in light of education, socioeconomic status, and the size of residential area. Those who are more educated, have more economic power, and live in a larger city had more chances to experience agenda consensus. These results seem to be basically attributable to the presumed positive relationship between these demographic variables and media exposure. The different degrees of public consensus according to the different levels of those demographic variables suggest that a closer investigation into the various influences on the importance of public issues among the respondents should be done in future studies.

The purposes of this study are to analyze how the media reflects the source competition between the activist group and the governmental source in the news contents. Media ideology and the conflict phase also were chosen as situational variables for evaluating how those variables could influence the source competition process. To answer the proposed research questions, the study chose the 'screen quota' issue as a research unit and analyzed documents from three sources, media news, the activist group for maintaining screen quota, and the governmental source during six years and three months. The results showed that the government source played a primary definer role in media reporting related to the screen quota issue, compared to the activist group. The governmental source's primary definer role was maintained against the highly contested social issue while the media ideology, to some degree, leveraged the activist group's comparatively unstable primary definer power. The governmental source's primary definer role was escalated as the conflict phase evolved.

The purpose of this study is to explore the trend of blockchain technology through analysis of patents and news articles using text mining, and to suggest the blockchain policy agenda by grasping social interests. For this purpose, 327 blockchain-related patent abstracts in Korea and 5,941 full-text online news articles were collected and preprocessed. 12 patent topics and 19 news topics were extracted with latent dirichlet allocation topic modeling. Analysis of patents showed that topics related to authentication and transaction accounted were largely predominant. Analysis of news articles showed that social interests are mainly concerned with cryptocurrency. Policy agendas were then derived for blockchain development. This study demonstrates the efficient and objective use of an automated technique for the analysis of large text documents. Additionally, specific policy agendas are proposed in this study which can inform future policy-making processes.

This is an experimental research with the theoretical background of agenda setting effect and elaboration likelihood model studying 'whether visual cues such as imagery and subtitle of TV environmental news have effect on the viewers' perception?', 'whether visual cues such as imagery and subtitle of TV environmental news have differential effect on the viewers' perception, depending on the viewers' involvement in the environmental issue?'. This experimental research found that the more highly exposed subjects considers environment issue more important than the less exposed, during the process, visual cues such as imagery and subtitle in TV news have an effect on agenda setting. Futhermore visual cues such as imagery and subtitle have stronger effect on the perception of the less involved than that of the more highly involved as a unified peripheral cue. However the effect of environmental involvement as independent peripheral cue couldn't have meaningful statistical support. Despite the fact that many previous researchers have shown that verbal cues of TV news have effect on the perception of viewers, little attempt has been made to investigate effect of visual cues on the TV viewers' perception. Therefore, this research has an important implication as an early proof in a new stream of visual agenda setting and elaboration research.

This study is an empirical study to see if the existing media effects have an effect on the perception of the audience in the media such as newspapers, TV, movies, etc., and whether the viewing of YouTube, an internet-based new media without gatekeeper, can affect the perception of the audience. For this study, 76 university students were divided into two groups, one group was asked to watch YouTube videos about no-buy campaign of Japanese products, and the other group was asked to watch short films for four weeks each, and then the perception and attitude of the issue were measured and analyzed through a survey. The results of the analysis showed that the audience who watched YouTube videos thought that no-buy campaign was more important than the audience who did not watch YouTube videos, and that they would participate more actively in no-buy campaign. The results of this study can be meaningful in that it confirmed the effects of the agenda setting effect and the priming effect of YouTube. It is expected that the theory of the media effect of YouTube will be established as the study on the audience effect in various fields such as politics, economy, society, culture of YouTube continues.
