Effects of Representations
Download as PPTX, PDF0 likes475 views
Media representations can have both positive and negative effects on individuals, groups, and society. They can influence attitudes and behaviors through copycat behavior, education and information, socialization, objectification, and stereotypes. Representations can reinforce dominant ideologies but also potentially challenge them. The media is an effective vehicle for spreading dominant worldviews to wide audiences.

Feminist film theory developed from second-wave feminism and women's studies. Early feminist film scholars analyzed how films represented and portrayed women, finding that they often depicted unrealistic stereotypes and were constructed from a male perspective. A key aspect of feminist film theory is the concept of the "male gaze", where films and camerawork objectify women as passive objects of male desire. Theories of representation, spectatorship, and psychoanalysis were applied to understand how cinema reinforced patriarchal social structures by marginalizing women.Applying theories to lftvd

The document provides context about a Tide laundry detergent advertisement from the 1950s. It discusses the social and political context of women's roles during and after World War 2, when more women took jobs in factories while the men were away fighting. The advertisement represents women in a stereotypical 1950s role as homemakers, but this reflected the need to encourage women back into the home as men returned from war. The use of media language and imagery in the advertisement constructs representations that both challenged and reinforced common views of women's roles during this period.ASY1 C1SB Late Night Woman's Hour

Consumer Behavior and Social InfluenceLeolaniStanley

Consumer behavior is influenced by physiological, safety, social, and esteem needs as described in Maslow's hierarchy of needs. People are motivated to buy things that satisfy needs and wants. Social influences like reference groups, opinion leaders, family, and culture also impact consumer behavior. Perceptions and attitudes further influence what products people choose to buy based on their lifestyles and how purchases fit their self-image and what is valued in their culture. Consumer behavior analysis helps understand why people make different purchasing decisions.Audience theory

The document discusses several key concepts in media theory, including:
1) Media effects theory examines how media can influence society and how society shapes media, while uses and gratification theory focuses on how audiences use media to fulfill certain needs or desires like entertainment, social connection, or emotional release.
2) Audiences can be either active, critically engaging with media messages, or passive, uncritically accepting messages as intended.
3) Psychographic profiles segment audiences based on factors like aspirations, values, and tendencies towards conformity or individualism.
4) Both uses and gratification theory and effects theory have disadvantages, such as oversimplifying audience interpretation of messages or suggesting media has too much or too littleCritical Perspectives: Audience

The document discusses key concepts regarding media audiences. It defines audiences by their location, consumption habits, size, and subjectivity. Two major perspectives on audiences are examined: the passive audience perspective sees media as directly influencing individuals, while the active audience perspective views audiences as selecting media to fulfill certain needs. The Uses and Gratifications model is discussed as an example of a theory that sees audiences as active, seeking information, identity, social interaction, and entertainment from the media.Audience theory

Uses and gratifications theory posits that people actively seek out specific media to fulfill certain needs, such as relaxation, release from problems, or social interaction. The effects theory suggests that media can influence audiences and amplify current trends, changing viewpoints or urging actions. The key difference is that uses and gratifications focuses on how people purposefully use media for personal needs, while effects theory examines how media messages can shape audiences' perspectives and behaviors.Audience Positioning and Media Effects

This document summarizes four models of media effects:
1) Uses and Gratification Model - Views audiences as active in choosing media to fulfill needs and shape identities. It recognizes audience power but ignores social factors.
2) Cultural Effects Model - Views media as tool of dominant groups to gradually influence audiences based on factors like class, gender, ethnicity.
3) Hypodermic Syringe Theory - Views audiences as passive, with media having immediate effects on behavior. It does not recognize outside influences.
4) Two Step Flow Model - Views influence as from media to opinion leaders to audiences, recognizing audiences are not entirely passive but still assumes media ultimately shapes opinions. It does not fully recognize independent audience views.Chapter 14

Reference groups are social groups that individuals use as a benchmark to evaluate their own attitudes, behaviors, and identity. These groups influence personal values and provide standards for social comparison, playing an important role in developing self-identity. Reference groups can be primary groups consisting of family and close friends or secondary groups like colleagues. They influence consumer purchasing decisions and are leveraged in marketing strategies to shape consumer behavior. While useful, the reference group theory has limitations and may oversimplify social influences.Unit 1 Representation Exam Revision
