本文测试的命题，即媒体系统的依赖关系的强度和范围是正相关的威胁的感知，环境中的威胁的理论和操作的定义进行了介绍。多元回归方程的结果支持这一假设，即报纸，广播，杂志和电视的依赖关系越强烈，一个人认为自己的社会和自然环境受到威胁。当人口统计变量被控制时，分层回归分析可能会显著增加对依赖方差的解释。Logistic回归不支持这一假设，即依赖关系的范围变得更广泛的威胁感知增加。事实上，相反的观点得到了支持;威胁与范围呈负相关。
This article tests the proposition that the intensity and scope of media system dependency relations are positively related to perceptions of threats in, the environment Theoretical and operational definitions of threat are introduced. The results of multiple regression equations support the hypothesis that dependency relations with newspapers, radio, magazines, and television are more intense the more one perceives one's social and natural environment to be threatening. Hierarchical regression analysis shouts threat to add significantly to the explanation of variance in dependency when demographic variables are controlled. Logistic regression fails to support the hypothesis that the scope of dependency relations becomes wider as threat perceptions increase. In fact, the opposite is supported; threat is negatively associated with scope.
