Medya Etkisinin Bilgi Yapısı

Öz

Medyadan alınan mesajlar, az ya da çok bir şekilde bireyi etkilemektedir. Mesajların değerlendirilmesinde zaman, mesajın biçimi, mesajın yönlendirilmesi ve mesajın kullanılma amacı etkili olmaktadır. Ayrıca bu değerlendirme esnasında birey, tepkisel ya da önleyici olmak üzere iki farklı bakış açısını kullanmaktadır. Birey açısından bakıldığında, bireyin gelişimsel olgunluğu, bilişsel yeteneği, bilgi yapısı, sosyolojik etmenler, yaşam biçimi, kişisel konumu ve medya alışkanlıkları, aldığı mesajı yorumlamasında etkili olmaktadır. Mesajlar, bireyleri ve dolayısıyla toplumdaki kurumları- aile, politika, din- da etkilemektedir. Bu nedenle, medya okur-yazarlığı üzerinde durulması gereken bir konudur ve medya okur-yazarlığı eğitim programlarının, özellikle iki konuya odaklanması gerektiği düşünülmektedir: Eleştirel düşünme ve yaratıcılık.
