Looking Through Rose Colored Glasses:the Media's Influence On Perceptions Of Romance And MarriageStraub, Brianne 01 January 2006 (has links)
This study examined the relationship between different media and expectations about romantic relationships and marriage. Participants were asked to complete a survey that measured different romantic constructs and the types of media exposures on a daily and weekly basis. The variables were measured to determine the effect the media play in a person's perceptions on romantic relationships and marriage. The results of the study concluded that although general television viewing does not predict perceptions about romance and marriage, the romantic genre of television programs as well as magazines do have a role in predicting romantic perceptions.

The Effect Of Cognitive Aging On Multimedia LearningDaCosta, Boaventura 01 January 2008 (has links)
If not designed in consideration to the workings of the human mind, multimedia learning environments can impose too high a demand on working memory. While such high cognitive load presents challenges for learners of all ages, older learners may be particularly affected as research on cognitive aging has shown the efficiency of working memory declines with age. Research has suggested that cognitive load theory (CLT) and the cognitive theory of multimedia learning (CTML) are likely to accommodate the cognitive needs of older learners; however, few of the principles emerging from these theories have been examined in the context of cognitive aging. The abundance of studies has focused on younger learners, prompting the need for further research of CLT and CTML principles with regard to age. This study contributes to the body of research on the cognitive aging principle by extending research on the modality effect with middle-aged learners. Ninety-two participants ranging in age from 30 to 59 were exposed to multimedia learning treatments presented as animation with concurrent narration and animation with concurrent text, followed by retention, concept, and transfer tests of multimedia learning. Demographic and descriptive statistics were performed along with a multivariate analysis of variance. The findings did not show a modality effect with middle-aged learners; however, results need to be interpreted with care as possible explanations may entail other causes for the lack of a modality effect other than age.

Caught in a ‘spiral’. Barriers to healthy eating and dietary health promotion needs from the perspective of unemployed young people and their service providersDavison, J., Share, M., Hennessy, M., Stewart-Knox, Barbara January 2015 (has links)
No / The number of young people in Europe who are not in education, employment or training (NEET) is increasing.
Given that young people from disadvantaged backgrounds tend to have diets of poor nutritional
quality, this exploratory study sought to understand barriers and facilitators to healthy eating and dietary
health promotion needs of unemployed young people aged 16–20 years. Three focus group discussions
were held with young people (n = 14). Six individual interviews and one paired interview with service
providers (n = 7). Data were recorded, transcribed verbatim and thematically content analysed. Themes
were then fitted to social cognitive theory (SCT). Despite understanding of the principles of healthy eating,
a ‘spiral’ of interrelated social, economic and associated psychological problems was perceived to render
food and health of little value and low priority for the young people. The story related by the young people
and corroborated by the service providers was of a lack of personal and vicarious experience with food.
The proliferation and proximity of fast food outlets and the high perceived cost of ‘healthy’ compared
to ‘junk’ food rendered the young people low in self-efficacy and perceived control to make healthier
food choices. Agency was instead expressed through consumption of junk food and drugs. Both the young
people and service providers agreed that for dietary health promotion efforts to succeed, social problems
needed to be addressed and agency encouraged through (individual and collective) active engagement
of the young people themselves.
