Abstract: By moving away from the debate between the minimal vs. maximal media effects paradigms, this research uses an explicit definition and conceptualisation of media effects as contingent upon individual and contextual level characteristics. It explores how the type of media system and political context interact and condition the influence of the mass media on public opinion. The presentation builds upon ongoing research that links key characteristics of media systems, party-voter linkages and individual citizens to the ways in which media exposure can be expected to impact citizens political knowledge, attitudes and behaviour. Multilevel modeling of comparative survey data from several dozen countries is employed to test the propositions.
