Name of the Theory Claims and Key Concept Theories and Developers
Cultivation TheoryPersistent long term exposure to TV content has small but measurable effects on the perceptual worlds of audience members.
George Gerbner
Social Action Theory
Media audiences participate actively in mediated communication; they construct meanings from the content they perceive.
Social action theory sees communication interaction in terms of actors’ intent, receivers' interpretations, and message content.
Meaning is not delivered in the communication process, rather it is constructed within it. Each communication act generates at least three separate and potentially different sites of this construction.
Anderson and Meyer
Name of the Theory Claims and Key Concept Theories and Developers
Agenda-Setting Theory
It contrasts with the selective exposure hypothesis of cognitive dissonance, reaffirming the power of the press while maintaining individual freedom. It aligns well with social judgment theory.
Maxwell McCombs & Donald Shaw
Media Dependency Theory
Audiences depend on media information to meet needs and reach goals.
Social institutions and media systems interact with audiences to create needs, interests, and motives in the person.
Ball-Rokeach and DeFluer
