abstract |
Despite a steep increase in the use of the Internet and handheld computing devices
for media consumption, television is still of critical importance for democratic citizenship.
Television continues to be the leading source of political information and its relevance
has been recognised at policy level. In addition, television keeps evolving technologically
and in how it is experienced by viewers. Nonetheless, the ways researchers have measured
audience engagement with televised political events in real-time is often limited
to small samples of viewers and is based upon a narrow range of responses.
In this paper we look at the audience of televised election debates, and propose a
new method to gauge the richness and variety of citizens’ real-time responses at scale
by capturing nuanced, non-intrusive, simple and measurable audience feedback. We report
on a paper prototype experiment, in which we used a set of flashcards to test the
method in an actual televised election debate scenario. We demonstrate how the method
can improve our understanding of viewer responses to the debaters’ performances, to
the contents in their arguments, and to the debate as media event. We conclude with
design guidelines to implement the method on a mass scale in order to measure audience
engagement with televised election debates in distributed contexts through audience
feedback web and mobile applications. |
