本研究从认知失调、社会认同和新闻价值观三个维度考察了网络政治信息的选择性阅读。在线报告显示给156名美国人，同时跟踪选择性暴露。参与者选择的新闻文章要么是保守的，要么是自由的，也要么是积极的或消极的美国政治政策。此外，信息处理风格（认知反射和认知需要）进行了测量。结果显示，确认和消极的偏见，每认知失调和新闻价值，但没有证实来自社会认同理论的假设。更大的认知反思、更大的认知需要和更差的情感状态会促进确认性偏差的产生;更强的社会比较倾向会降低消极性偏差。
Selective reading of political online information was examined based on cognitive dissonance, social identity, and news values frameworks. Online reports were displayed to 156 Americans while selective exposure was tracked. The news articles that participants chose from were either conservative or liberal and also either positive or negative regarding American political policies. In addition, information processing styles (cognitive reflection and need-for-cognition) were measured. Results revealed confirmation and negativity biases, per cognitive dissonance and news values, but did not corroborate the hypothesis derived from social identity theory. Greater cognitive reflection, greater need-for-cognition, and worse affective state fostered the confirmation bias; stronger social comparison tendency reduced the negativity bias.
