AUSTRALIA ; EFFECTS OF TV ; VIOLENCE ON TV Summary: "This paper is designed to evaluate television's influence within the social context in which the medium is used. The inclusion of context variables is important because it emphasizes the notion that television does not affect the individual in isolation, but rather, television's influence must be seen in terms of the audience member's construal of the televised message. How the audience will interpret what it views will depend not only upon the content of the programs but also on the nature of the viewer and the context in which the viewing occurs." - INTRODUCTIONNotes: Draft version for comments only, prepared for Berkowitz, L.
