dc.description.abstract | Yogyakarta Special Region is one of the provinces which has a privilege of a
succession of the governor based on Javanese tradition. The privilege affects
political, social and cultural systems. Indeed, recent public expressions and
opinions showed strong culture of people of Yogyakarta Special Region. The
views, however, also demonstrated issues of a digital divide when expressed on
social media.
Under the theme of “A Digital Divide of People of Yogyakarta Special Region
toward a Sabda Raja or a Royal Proclamation (A Case Study of Public
Opinions on Contents regarding a Royal Proclamation on Facebook Throughout
2015)”, this research aims to describe an emerging digital divide between old
and new generations. It is expected to benefit further studies on a digital divide
and public opinions of people of Yogyakarta Special Region. In a practical
level, this research provides a novel insight for government of Yogyakarta
Special Region to chart public opinions as well as a digital divide of people of
Yogyakarta Special Region and to be more responsive to development of
community dynamics displayed on their activities on social media as Facebook.
This research was a descriptive qualitative research employing a qualitative
content analysis method. Research data were gathered from activities of top five
Facebook accounts which highly engaged in issues of the royal proclamation. A
data collection technique was conducted through examining online documents.
Data collection criteria were based on the highest engagement in the issues of
the royal proclamation. A validity test used construct validity.
Research findings revealed that a digital divide with regard to the royal
proclamation on Facebook between old and new generations existed. Cultural
and language factors led to the digital divide. A public opinion construction
process in cognitive, affective, and behavioral domains indicated that new
generations were apathetic. On the other hand, old generations were more
consistent with their identity as Javanese people. Vastly digital participation
styles could be noticed from common participation styles. An underlying
motive and participation consequence of new generations illustrated egalitarian
expressions. Meanwhile, old generations represented an interaction gap between
a content writer and other accounts responding to the content. | en_US |
