Role adjustment of social governance of new government media in alleviating social workers’ mania from the perspective of media convergence

Abstract

BackgroundIn today’s media environment, the role of new government media in social governance is becoming increasingly important. However, many scholars have studied and discussed how to adjust its role in the perspective of media convergence to alleviate the mania of social personnel.Subjects and MethodsA randomized controlled trial selected two communities as the intervention and control groups. Residents in the intervention group received relevant social governance information and services through new government media, while residents in the control group received conventional social governance services. The study period was one year, and data collection included baseline and follow-up data during and after the intervention. SPSS23.0 software was used for data analysis.ResultsThe improvement rate of mania symptoms in the intervention group was 72%, significantly higher than in the control group (48%). The proportion of improved quality of life (68%) was considerably higher than that of the control group (45%). The rate of social function recovery was 65%, significantly higher than 42% in the control group.ConclusionsNew government media can effectively help mania patients improve their symptoms and quality of life and restore social function in social governance. Therefore, we should make full use of the new media of government affairs and incorporate it into the social governance system to better serve the social personnel, especially the patients with mania.
