Perilaku Informasi Mahasiswa dan Hoaks di Media Sosial

The rise of hoaxes circulating on social media makes students as active social media users vulnerable to distribute hoaxes. The study used the model of information behavior by Wilson (1996) to examine information behaviors of university students in combating hoaxes on social media. Using a qualitative method, data collection was conducted through focus groups discussions with 14 students of Syiah Kuala University. The results showed that the information behaviors performed by the university students were not adequate to combat hoaxes. The critical attitude by not easily trusting information on social media was not accompanied by sufficient will and abilities to verify information they received from social media. Information dissemination behavior without verification was also found in this study. The results of this study also indicated that passive attention and search were the most dominant information behaviors among students. The results also showed that low self-efficacy encourage students to be reluctant and difficult to conduct information searches for verification. This study suggested that the model of information behaviour by Wilson (1996) was relevant to discuss students’ information behavior to combat hoaxes on social media. These findings are important to develop a social media literacy model for university students to fight against hoaxes on social media. Maraknya hoaks yang beredar di media sosial menjadikan mahasiswa sebagai pengguna media sosial aktif rentan menjadi penyebar hoaks.

Dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif, pengumpulan data dilakukan dengan focus groups discussion terhadap 14 orang mahasiswa Universitas Syiah Kuala. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan perilaku informasi mahasiswa dalam menghadapi hoaks belum mumpuni. Sikap kritis dengan tidak mudah mempercayai informasi di media sosial, ternyata tidak disertai kemauan dan kemampuan verifikasi informasi yang memadai. Perilaku penyebaran informasi tanpa verifikasi juga masih ditemukan. Hasil studi ini juga mengindikasikan bahwa perilaku perhatian dan pencarian pasif adalah perilaku yang paling dominan di kalangan mahasiswa. Hasil studi menunjukkan bahwa self-efficacy yang rendah menyebabkan mahasiswa enggan dan sulit melakukan pencarian informasi untuk verifikasi. Studi ini menunjukkan bahwa model perilaku informasi oleh Wilson (1996) relevan untuk membahas perilaku informasi mahasiswa dalam menghadapi hoaks di media sosial. Hasil studi ini penting untuk mengembangkan model literasi media sosial di kalangan mahasiswa untuk menangkal hoaks.

First, the motives of female students wearing headscarves are divided into two, namely the motives of the past and the motives of the future. Motives of the past are encouraged because of encouragement and advice from parents and family, as well as shar'i motifs based on obligations established by Islam. The future motives underlying the female students using veil are divided into the motive of wanting to avoid bad things, wanting to control their behavior, and wanting to be appreciated. Second, related to self-meaning, the students who wear the hijab interpret it as proof of love for God, and as a service to both parents.

Kendati pada dasarnya menggunakan jilbab merupakan aturan berpakaian yang disyariatkan Islam bagi perempuan muslim, namun terbukti hanya sebagian yang menggunakan jilbab.

Adapun motif masa depan yang mendasari mahasiswi menggunakan jilbab terpilah pada motif ingin menghindari hal-hal buruk, ingin mengontrol tingkah laku, dan ingin dihargai.

Digitalisasi Ideologi: Mediatisasi Hegemoni Ritual Rambu Solo di Media Sosial

This article argues that the emergence of contents related to the Rambu Solo ritual on social media is a manifestation of the hegemonic ideology that was digitalized by the new generation of Toraja. Using the theoretical framework of mediatization, this article aims to explore how the hegemony of Rambu solo ritual operates in social media context, especially Instagram. By using virtual ethnography method, especially at the level of media documents and user experience, it can be explained that the mediatization of the hegemony of Rambu Solo rituals on social media are basically implying three things; firstly, the narrative about the Rambu Solo ritual on social media has given birth to a new form of interaction and communication in a broader scope; secondly, the narrative of Rambu Solo ritual on social media has made the media as a new domain to find meanings about the Rambu Solo ritual; and third, the narrative of Rambu Solo ritual indicates the accommodation efforts of the Torajanese new generation towards the rules that apply in the context of social media with the general characteristics of user-generated content. Realized it or not, the Torajanes new generation has voluntarily "continued" this ritual hegemony.

Perspektif Interaksionisme Simbolik tentang Ijtihad siyasi sebagai akar komunikasi politik Organisasi Persatuan Islam

Islamic unity (Persatuan Islam) as an organization of Islamic society is seen as having its patterns and models of political communication that cannot be separated from the doctrine of understanding Islamic teachings with a vision of returning to the Qur'an and Sunnah. In some political momentum, Islamic Unity has the characteristics and mechanisms of political aspiration and participation as an effort to internalize fiqhiyyah puritanism. This refers to the nidzam jamiyyah (organizational rules) that have been agreed upon by the members of the Islamic Unity from the level of the Central Leadership, Regional Leaders, Regional Leaders, Branch Managers, and Jamaat Leaders. This article aims to explore the roots of political communication in the organization of Islamic Unity from the perspective of symbolic interactionism. The study was conducted using a qualitative approach through the study of phenomenology. Phenomenology is used to explore the tradition of the roots of political communication involving twelve members of the Bandung Islamic Association as the main informant. The results showed that the siyasi ijtihad was seen as the root of the political communication of Islamic Unity. Where ijtihad siyasi covers three main political communication strategies, namely idaratu da'wah as the Persian congregation's self-concept, idaratu quwwah as a Persis political communication framework and idaratu ummah as a Persis political communication society framework. The research implications show how ijtihad siyasi is interpreted as a fiqhiyyah reference in the framework of constructing the concept of proselytizing in the national field.Persatuan Islam sebagai sebuah organisasi masyarakat Islam dipandang memiliki pola dan model komunikasi politik tersendiri yang tidak bisa dilepaskan dari doktrin pemahaman ajaran Islam dengan visi kembali pada al-qur’an dan Sunnah.
