  • Media Use As a Predictor of the Political Behaviour of Undergraduates in South-West Nigeria
    New Media and Mass Communication www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3267 (Paper) ISSN 2224-3275 (Online) Vol.15, 2013 Media Use as a Predictor of the Political Behaviour of Undergraduates in South-West Nigeria Dele Odunlami, Ph.D. Department Of Mass Communication, Olabisi Onabanjo University (Oou), Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, Nigeria E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The objective of this research was to determine the predictive value of media exposure on the political knowledge and behaviour of undergraduates in South-West Nigeria. It also sought to discover which medium is the dominant or preferred source of political information for respondents and which of the media would have greater influence on their political knowledge and behaviour. The research platform was survey. Through a combination of stratified and multi-stage sampling, a comprehensive sample frame of 4,700 respondents was generated from a cluster of faculties/colleges from six universities. From the 4,228 copies of questionnaire returned and analysed, findings showed that contrary to earlier-held notions, exposure to the electronic media (Radio, Television and Internet) predicted higher political knowledge and behaviour among respondents than the print med ia. The results also showed that there was a significant influence of exposure to media on respondents political behaviour (t 4226 = 2.365; p<.05_. The calculated t value of 2.365 was found to be significantly higher than the critical t value of 1.960 at 4226 degrees of freedom at 0.05 level of significance. The study also revealed that television was the most dominant source of political information among the respondents.
