• It's Complicated: Facebook Users' Political Participation in the 2008 Election (2011, unknown): “Research has found that the more politically active people are offline, the more they participate in political discussions online,(19) and that exposure to and discussion of political information online has both a main and moderating effect on political engagement.(24,25) In line with the belief tha”
• Does Internet Use Affect Engagement? A Meta-Analysis of Research (2009, background): “Some studies estimate the explained variance at less than one percent (Bimber, 2003; Hardy & Scheufele, 2005; Kenski & Stroud, 2006; Nisbet & Scheufele, 2004; Scheufele & Nisbet, 2002) or less than two percent (Shah et al., 2001b) or about three percent (Kwak et al., 2006; Moy et al., 2005).”
• Good News for the Future? Young People, Internet Use, and Political Participation (2011, background): “Parallel to the relationships between offline discussion and participation, positive associations have been suggested between online discussion and political knowledge and participation (Hardy & Scheufele, 2005; Price & Cappella, 2002).”
• The Roles of Interpersonal Communication in Mass Media Campaigns (2007, background): “As Hardy and Scheufele (2005) contended, people might process media-based information more carefully because of anticipated conversation or be better able to engage and encode information because of knowledge structures developed through past conversation.”
• Social-Psychological Influences on Opinion Expression in Face-to-Face and Computer-Mediated Communication (2008, background): “…scholars have been enthusiastic about the potential of computer-mediated communication as an effective forum for fostering deliberation, information gathering, and exchanges among citizens (Cappella, Price, & Nir, 2002; Delli Carpini, 2000; Hardy & Scheufele, 2005; Jennings & Zeitner, 2003).”
• Social media adoption: The role of media needs and innovation characteristics (2015, background): “Hirschman (1983) conceptualizes escapism as a utilitarian function because it relieves individual mental burdens.”
• The Effect of Disclosure of Third-Party Influence on an Opinion Leader's Credibility and Electronic Word of Mouth in Two-Step Flow (2014, background): “…leaders were exposed to media messages (e.g., Katz 1957; Spitzer 1964), research in information diffusion has recently turned to focus on how mavens interact with and influence their interpersonal networks, particularly via online communication (e.g., Case et al. 2004; Hardy and Scheufele 2005).”
• Preliminary Development of a Model and Measure of Computer-Mediated Communication (CMC) Competence (2006, methodology): “This interactionist paradigm is reflected more in current research trends in CMC (e.g., Hardy & Scheufele, 2005), although some anticipate a comeback by strong effects approaches (Herring, 2004).”
• Facebook and political engagement: A study of online political group membership and offline political engagement (2012, background): “McLeod, Scheufele and Moy (1999), Hardy and Scheufele (2005), Shah et al. (2007), and Cho et al. (2009) find interpersonal processes, such as discussion, are central to learning and action, perhaps licensing the positive effects on civic engagement and participation.”
• Connecting Interpersonal and Mass Communication: Science News Exposure, Perceived Ability to Understand Science, and Conversation (2006, background): “In recent years, a number of scholars also have explored the tantalizing possibility that interpersonal conversation actually sometimes moderates media effects (e.g., Hardy & Scheufele, 2005; Southwell, 2005).”
