BUSAN, South Korea, Aug. 23, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The rapid growth of digital media and information technologies has expanded our capability to acquire the information we need. However, these capabilities do not necessarily result in actual information-seeking behaviors. While some people may seek a lot of information about specific issues, others may be oblivious to it. Therefore, what makes people seek information about a problem and share it with others is a fundamental question.

Key Points: 
  • To understand the mechanisms of information-seeking behaviors, Prof. Hyo Jung Kim and Prof. Sungwook Hwang of Pusan National University, Korea, combined two existing theoretical frameworks, namely, Situational Theory of Problem Solving (STOPS) and Risk Information Seeking and Processing (RISP), to develop the all-new Information Behaviors on Social Issues (IBSI) model.
  • The researchers tested their new framework in the context of information behaviors regarding South-North Korean relations.
  • The study's findings can help public affairs and government public relations specialists foster information behaviors around significant political and policy problems.
