520 |a A study examined the international knowledge of beginning journalism students. Subjects, 220 beginning newswriting students from five schools and departments of journalism at large, state-run universities across the United States, were given a questionnaire adapted from another source which asked students questions on global issues and their use of mass media. Results indicated that: (1) the level of international knowledge was lower than that recorded in 1980 by the survey instrument on which the current research was based; (2) news editorial students scored significantly better than any other group; (3) those who relied on print sources for news scored better than those who relied on broadcast sources; (4) students who read the newspaper frequently scored better than those who read the paper less frequently; and (5) higher levels of international activities did not lead to higher scores. (Two tables of data are included; two additional tables of data, 25 references, and the survey instrument are attached.) (RS)
