Within audience research, middle agers (31 to 59 years) are understood as normal cases. Therefore, studies about the specificities of this age group are rare, especially concerning the mediatization of community building. However, this is an age with typical phases of the life course (for example professional career and re-orientation; marriage and partner change; birth and leave of children etc.), which go hand in hand with partly fundamental changes of media appropriation and (mediatized) communitization. Against this background, it is the aim of this research project to investigate the mediatized community building of middle agers. As a basis for this, their transmedial communication networks and mediatized horizons of communitization are reconstructed in a typifying way. This makes it possible to describe the challenges of a mediatized communitization for middle agers. This is especially the communicative demarcation (communicative securing of communities in contrast to other responsibilities), the communicative mobility (media based organisation of communitization in contrast to an everyday (working) mobility), communicative participation (a media based engagement within the communities) and communicative compensation (interception of community losses by media use). Such characteristics of a mediatization of communitization in middle age are compared with research results of other age groups, that is young people (16-30 years) and the elderly (above 60 years). Such an approach makes it possible to reconstruct different media generations and their moulding by typical experiences of mediatization. In particular, it becomes possible to describe the changes of (mediatized) communitization that relate to the latest mediatization wave of digitalisation and the related changes of communicative construction. The methodological basis of this research is a qualitative network analysis that operates with a triangulation of interviews, drawings of network maps, digital media diaries and a material documentation. As an outcome of this research the project offers on the one hand a concluding assessment of communitization change within mediatized worlds. On the other hand a comprehensive theory of the communicative construction of reality under the conditions of mediatization will be developed, integrating the empirical results of this project, other projects within the priority programme Mediatized Worlds, and further international research. This will be documented within an English monograph in co-authorship.Research area: Network

在受众研究中，中年人（31至59岁）被视为正常情况。因此，关于这一年龄组的特殊性的研究是罕见的，特别是关于社区建设的中介化。然而，这是一个具有典型人生阶段的年龄（例如职业生涯和重新定位;婚姻和伴侣的变化;子女的出生和休假等），这与媒体占有和（中介化的）社区化的部分根本性变化密切相关。在此背景下，本研究旨在探讨中年人的中介化社区建构。在此基础上，他们以典型化的方式重构了跨媒介的传播网络和媒介化的社群视野。这使得我们有可能描述一个中介社区化的挑战，为中年人。这尤其是沟通分界（与其他责任相比，社区的沟通保障），沟通流动性（与日常（工作）流动性相比，基于媒体的社区化组织），沟通参与（社区内基于媒体的参与）和沟通补偿（通过媒体使用拦截社区损失）。中年社区化中介化的这些特征与其他年龄组的研究结果进行了比较，即年轻人（16-30岁）和老年人（60岁以上）。这样的研究方法使我们有可能通过典型的媒介化经验来重构不同的媒介代及其塑造。特别是，它变得有可能描述与最新的数字化中介化浪潮相关的（中介化）社区化的变化以及沟通结构的相关变化。本研究的方法论基础是一个定性的网络分析，操作与三角访谈，网络地图，数字媒体日记和材料文件的图纸。作为这项研究的成果，该项目一方面提供了一个结论性的评估社区化的变化在中介化的世界。另一方面，将开发一种在媒介化条件下现实的沟通建设的综合理论，将该项目的经验结果，优先方案中的其他项目媒介化世界，以及进一步的国际研究。这将被记录在一个英文专著在合著。研究领域：网络
