Internationale Perspektiven zur Informationsvermeidung während der Coronapandemie: ein Vergleich der Medienbewertungen und der Mediennutzung in Pakistan, Deutschland und Indonesien :
International perspectives on information avoidance during the coronavirus pandemic: comparing media evaluations and media use in Pakistan, Germany, and Indonesia. - In: Studies in communication and media, ISSN 2192-4007, Bd. 11 (2022), 3, S. 477-507

This study investigates the comparative prevalence of information avoidance concerning the coronavirus and its relationship with media evaluation and use. We argue that information avoidance is a behavior that broadly signifies the intermittent and conscious practice of shunning specific content. It is problematic because having an informed citizenry is essential, especially during a global pandemic. Given the global affectedness of the world by the coronavirus, we believe in the necessity for international comparative research and conduct our study in Pakistan, Germany, and Indonesia. Based on the existing literature, which stems predominantly from the Global North, we assume that media use and its evaluations are associated with information avoidance and test our assumptions against cross-cultural differences. Hence, we collected data in Germany (n = 822), Indonesia (n = 1164), and Pakistan (n = 467). The results indicate important differences with regard to the prevalence of information avoidance as well as media use and its evaluations across the three countries. The analysis further confirms a rather stable relationship between media evaluations with information avoidance but revealed interesting differences in the associations between media use and avoidance.

Does popularity matter in a TV song competition? : evidence from a national music contest. - In: Creative industries journal, ISSN 1751-0708, Bd. 0 (2022), 0, S. 1-18

A considerable amount of literature analyzes factors of success in music contests, particularly those where the audience votes for the winner. However, one aspect highlighted by the economic theory of stardom is generally neglected in the literature: the role of (pre-contest) popularity of the contestants. In this paper, we tackle this research gap by focusing on a national music contest in Germany and investigating how pre-contest popularity of the participating artists influences the final voting results. We employ two different concepts of popularity. First, we collected data on the artist’s former success (MacDonald-popularity) using music charts. Second, we proxy the media presence of the artists (Adler-popularity) using hits in traditional and new media. In our analysis, we find empirical evidence that the artist’s ex-ante popularity positively affects the outcome of voting results. Interestingly, media presence matters more than former success. Furthermore, displaying the characteristics of a one-hit-wonder harms success in the contest.
