Recenzii

"Understanding Media Psychology is a long needed, approachable text that introduces students to the growing field of media psychology. Laced with examples ranging from classics to contemporary, it offers an engaging and clear overview of key theories, concepts, and issues in this area of research from an interdisciplinary perspective."
Rebecca (Riva) Tukachinsky Forster, Chapman University, USA
"This is the book that I have been doing without for years and wanting desperately. Media Psychology has needed a text like this that explains and contextualizes the field, and that does so in a way that works for a variety of audiences. Like an Olympic gymnast who makes her moves look easy, the authors’ clear and engaging style deftly delivers a tour-de-force in scholarship."
Karen Dill-Shackleford, Fielding Graduate University, USA
"This book is an all-inclusive scholarly bible of Media Psychology. The chapters, written by prominent celebrity scholar, Gayle Stever, and her talented team of media psychology authors, include the history of media psychology, research methods, positive psychology, social justice issues, advertising, media literacy, the audience, dark media, gaming, social media, Covid-19, and the future of media. This is all explained with familiar and practical pop culture examples that readers will certainly appreciate. Each chapter concludes with comprehensive questions that invite readers to evaluate the content and make it personally meaningful by connecting it to their attitudes, behaviors, and previous knowledge base. Consider this book as a staple in the library of everyone who needs a smart read on media psychology."
Joanne Broder, Media Psychologist and Former President, Society for Media Psychology and Technology
