  • Selective Filter and Reception Analysis
    • Reception Analysis
      • Suggests that people interpret media content in different ways, according to their class, age, gender and ethnic group
      • Reception Analysis model suggests that media content is interpreted in a variety of ways
      • Audiences choose to make one of three readings:
        • Preferred Reading
        • Opposing Reading
        • Negotiated Reading
      • MORELY
        • Average person belongs to several subcultures, this may complicate a person's interpretation of media content
        • Subcultural characteristics are not predictable in the way they influence a person's response to media content
      • CRITICISMS
        • Takes an over-determined view as it sees the audience as being controlled by the social groups of which they belong to
        • POSTMODERN stress that the same programmes can be interpreted differently by different audiences in different contexts
    • Selective Filter
      • KLAPPER
        • For media messages to have any effect, it must pass through 3 filters:
          • Step 1. Selective exposure. Audiences choose to view the content
          • Step 2. Selective Perception. Audiences may not accept the message
          • Step 3. Selective Retention. Media messages must be retained by the audience for them to have any effect
      • CRITICISMS
        • Many media messages only stick with the audience because they're constantly repeated in the news
        • This assumes that the audience do not automatically believe what they see in the media
        • Censorships and age restrictions do not stop young people from exposure to adult media
