Military Programs on Digital Radio as a Source of Information for Armed Forces Personnel
Main Article Content
Abstract
The current study addresses a topic that is increasingly practiced and broadcast through digital radio platforms: the reliance of armed forces personnel on military programmes as an important source of information. The study aims to explore the impact of these programmes on shaping the perceptions of military individuals, particularly in relation to military knowledge and the resolution of specific issues faced by combatants. It also seeks to identify the nature, diversity, and credibility of the information presented in these programmes.
The study was conducted using the Media Dependency Theory and through a survey targeting members of the armed forces in Baghdad and several Iraqi provinces. The initial sample included 500 respondents, of which 80 questionnaires were excluded due to incomplete responses, resulting in a final sample of 420 valid questionnaires for analysis
