Public support for censorship in a highly regulated media environment: The influence of self-construal and third-person perception over time
This study represents the first longitudinal examination of third-person effects and uses a rigorous specification of the relative contribution of perceptions of influence on self and others (viz., the diamond method). Using nationally representative samples from Singapore gathered in 2001 (n = 626)...
