| Abstract | Media System Dependency (MSD) theory predicts the tripartite relationship between perceived social change (PSC) during crises, access, and availability of media and dependency on that media. Scholars have used this theory in the situation faced by migrants, but most of such studies in the past have focused on external migrants. There are very few studies focusing on the media use and dependency of internally displaced persons (IDPs) (internal migrants). Therefore, this paper tries to fill this gap by studying the relationship among the three constructs of the dependency theory in the situation of the IDPs displaced from erstwhile FATA of Pakistan. Data were collected using a closed-ended questionnaire. The findings suggested a positive relationship between the three constructs for television, radio, and newspapers. For social media, the relationship is positive when IDPs are interested in content related to home society. In the case of social media use for host society, the relationship was insignificant. |
