In the outside initiation model of agenda setting issues arise in :

  • A.Within the government
  • B.Non-governmental groups
  • C.Influential group with access to policy makers
  • D.In policy analysts contribution

Answer: B

In the outside initiation model, issues arise in non-governmental groups.

Roger Cobb, Jennie-Keith Ross and Marc Howard Ross (1976) described three models of agenda setting. In the outside initiation model, an issue is raised by groups outside government, expanded to wider publics through pressure and publicity, and finally forced onto the government's formal agenda. It is typical of pluralist democracies.

An issue that arises within government and is then carried to the public is the mobilisation model. An issue raised by influential groups with special access to decision makers, who keep it away from the public, is the inside initiation model. Policy analysts' contributions are not the defining source in any of the three models.
