人们如何理解政治？将传播研究的实证结果与认知心理学的理解模型相结合，我们认为人们通过以符合好故事结构的方式组织信息来理解复杂的事件序列。为了验证这一说法，我们进行了两项实验。在每一篇文章中，我们都以故事的形式向人们展示了 1999 年科索沃危机的新闻报道，以促进或阻止美国的干预。与预期一致，我们发现将有关危机的新闻描述为故事会影响人们的记忆、他们如何构建记忆以及他们对政府应采取的行动表达的意见。
How do people make sense of politics? Integrating empirical results in communication studies on framing with models of comprehension in cognitive psychology, we argue that people understand complicated event sequences by organizing information in a manner that conforms to the structure of a good story. To test this claim, we carried out a pair of experiments. In each, we presented people with news reports on the 1999 Kosovo crisis that were framed in story form, either to promote or prevent U.S. intervention. Consistent with expectations, we found that framing news about the crisis as a story affected what people remembered, how they structured what they remembered, and the opinions they expressed on the actions government should take.
