ドイツの4波パネル調査を用いて、エネルギー転換に関する陰謀説の蔓延とメディア利用との関連を分析。個人間の安定した関連は強いが、個人内の時間的変動効果はほとんど見られず、長期的な傾向が重要であることを示唆。環境コミュニケーション研究に方法論的貢献。
English
Using a 4-wave German panel survey, this study examines the prevalence of conspiracy beliefs about the energy transition and their relationship with media use. It finds strong stable between-person associations but almost no within-person causal effects, suggesting enduring dispositions rather than short-term media influences. Advances environmental communication research methodologically with Random Intercept Cross-Lagged Panel Models.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters
日本のGX文脈において
日本のエネルギー転換においても、国民の信頼とメディアの影響は重要。本結果は、短期的な情報発信だけでなく、長期的なメディア環境の形成が陰謀説対策に有効である可能性を示唆し、日本での政策立案やコミュニケーション戦略に参考となる。
In the global GX context
This study highlights the role of stable media use patterns in shaping conspiracy beliefs about energy transitions, a topic relevant globally. The methodological approach (RI-CLPM) offers a robust way to disentangle dispositional from short-term effects, useful for researchers studying public acceptance of decarbonization policies.
👥 読者別の含意
🔬研究者:Demonstrates how RI-CLPM can disentangle stable dispositions from short-term media effects on conspiracy beliefs, a methodological advance for environmental communication research.
🏛政策担当者:Suggests that fostering public trust in energy transition requires addressing long-term media diets, not just short-term campaigns.
📄 Abstract（原文）
Introduction The large-scale transformation of energy systems is central to mitigating climate change, yet its success depends on public trust and support. One factor that can be problematic in this context is energy transition conspiracy belief. For this reason, this study examines how widespread this phenomenon is and how it relates to media use over time. Methods Drawing on four waves of a nationwide German panel survey, we apply Random Intercept Cross-Lagged Panel Models (RI-CLPM) to disentangle stable between-person associations from dynamic within-person changes over time. Results The results show not only that energy transition conspiracy belief is widespread, but also strongly associated with stable patterns of media use. However, within-person analyses reveal almost no causal, time-variant effects—suggesting that these associations reflect enduring dispositions rather than short-term changes. Discussion Beyond its empirical contribution, the study advances environmental communication research by demonstrating how individual media diets shape the meaning-making processes surrounding sustainability transformations.
