    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för geografi, medier och kommunikation (from 2013)

    Author : Lovisa Boström; [2021]
    Keywords : agenda setting; attribute agenda setting; issue ownership; framing; primary election debates; dagordningsteorin; andra nivån av dagordningsteorin; framingteorin; issue ownership; amerikanska primärdebatter;

    Abstract : The purpose of this study is to investigate the presence of first- and second-level agenda setting as well as issue ownership in the 2020 Democratic primary debates and whether there is a relationship between using strategies based on these theories and qualifying for future debates. The study seeks to answer three research questions: What is the relationship, if any, between a candidate whose statements focused primarily on the three issues considered most important by the public according to opinion polls and whether this candidate qualified for future debates? How did candidates use frames to redraw the attention of issues? What is the relationship, if any, between the extent to which a candidate’s statements discussed performance issues more than Republican-owned or Democratic-owned issues and whether this candidate qualified for future debates? The study draws mainly on the first and second level of the agenda setting theory, as well as the theory of issue ownership, and analyzes what issues candidates focus on, what attributes of these issues they emphasize, and whether they discuss performance issues like the economy or foreign policy more than issues owned by either the Republican or the Democratic Party.
