本研究聚焦2016年活跃于社交媒体的各种意见群体,运用社会网络分析、比较分析等实证方法,从群体结构、公共参与、互动关系等方面考察各意见群体传播影响力的特征、变化及影响。研究发现,公知型意见领袖、知识型意见领袖及娱乐型网红是当前三大活跃的意见群体。微博舆论场中,原有的公知型意见领袖群落分散,公共讨论弱化;而营销类、娱乐类用户成为微博意见领袖群体的主流。同时,兴起于问答社区的知识型意见领袖在知识传播、舆论引导方面的作用日渐显现。以商业逻辑为内驱力、以娱乐为基调的各类自媒体“网红”快速涌现和更替。意见群体的影响力在变动中重新整合,体现出双重趋势:一方面,微博传统的意见领袖正在向其他媒体分流或转移;另一方面,资本力量通过在不同社交媒体平台的运作,影响意见群体的生成与发展。
