Abstract: | This research aims to investigate the influence of demographic factors, media
gratification and programmes satisfaction of Hangzhou Traffic Radio in China. The
samples were audiences from the Hangzhou area, aged 18 years and above. Two
hundred and three listeners of Hangzhou Traffic Radio in China, were selected to
participate in this survey using purposive and convenience sampling method. The
means, standard deviation, and percentage were being tabulated and analyzed using
One-Way ANOVA and Linear Regression Analysis with the significance level of 0.05. The result revealed that:
(1) Among the demographic factors, gender and position do not have a
significant effect on audience gratification of Hangzhou Traffic Radio
programmes. In contrast, age, occupation and educational level have a
significant different media gratification. Respondents aged 45-54 have
significant different media gratification from those 28-36 years old and over
55 years old in respect to entertainment. There was a significant difference in
media gratification between the freelance group, the retired employees and
the government employee groups. Audience with Master’s degree has
significant different entertainment from those below Bachelor’s degree. And
audience with Higher than Master’s degree has significant different relaxation
from those Bachelor’s degree, and Master’s degree. (2) Secondly, researcher found that audiences’ media gratification of
entertainment, motivation for life, relaxation, information/knowledge and
education significantly increased their perception of satisfaction with
programmes if examined together. When examined the factors separately, three factors of entertainment, motivation and education are significant
predictors of audiences’ satisfaction with the content of Hangzhou Traffic
Radio programmes. However, relaxation and information/knowledge did not
significantly influence audience satisfaction. |
