My study researched if a student's major influences news consumption
My research question focused on if a student's major indicated any feeling of obligation towards how much news they consumed or what news apps they used on their mobile phones. The majority of participants, 56%, had one to two apps news or media apps on their phone. The study also found that most participants, 28% for both options, use these apps three to four times a day, or eight times or more a day. The top five majors reported were business/finance, communications, biology/pre-med, psychology and arts and humanities. Perhaps if more journalism students took the survey the differences would have been statistically significant.
