This thesis employs a multi-disciplinary approach to examine the relationship between Shanghai youth and television. It draws from cultural, media, and communication studies, and ethnographic methods to investigate youth interpretations of the changing value system disseminated through the Chinese Government television system. The television-related interpersonal communication experiences of eight Shanghai youth are examined to understand how these audiences appropriate television content and construct a cultural identity by negotiating the discourses of individualism (western values) and col

Abstract:
The study sought to establish the impact of using the local content policy in reducing television cultural influences on Mbare youth in Zimbabwe. It is assumed that television has ideological and hegemonic functions which have come to dominate the life styles of the youths on issues of dress styles, musical tastes and language, thus threatening and weakening the long established local cultures. Hence the Zimbabwean government’s local content policy was established to reduce influences of alien cultures.

Abstract:
This study investigates how youth in Uganda experience televised HIV and AIDS educational programmes. Television is the medium that can be used to address the resurgence of HIV and AIDS in Uganda. The factors responsible for the resurgence include prevention fatigue and the saturation of HIV and AIDS messages in the media. The audio-visual component of television makes it possible to convey HIV and AIDS messages innovatively through education-entertainment. Despite its potential, television has not played a leading role in conveying HIV-related knowledge, skills, and attitudes to urban youths.

Abstract:
This investigation attempted to answer the following research questions, based upon student participation in "hands on" television production activities: (1) What shifts in the students' perceived acceptance of themselves occurred, (2) what shifts in the students' perceived acceptance of others occurred, and (3) what shifts in the students' perceived acceptance of school occurred? In seeking answers to the above three questions, the investigator located seven volunteers from a high school dropout retrieval program. As it developed, all of them were of Mexican American heritage. This investigat

Developmental disabilities (DEVDIS) such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders (ASD), developmental delay (DD), and learning disabilities, affect 14% of US youth, who also experience higher rates of obesity, approximately 19%, than youth without these conditions. Screen time is a risk factor for obesity, though it is not well-studied among youth with developmental disabilities. Youth with developmental disabilities experience challenges with learning, have underdeveloped social skills, and problematic behaviors. These predispositions can often result in

Abstract:
Le Liban a fait face à 15 ans de guerre civile qui ont détruit non seulement son économie et son infrastructure, mais aussi son image de communication. En effet, dans cette ère de mondialisation où la communication joue un rôle essentiel dans le tissage de liens sociaux et où les médias ont une place importante dans l’expansion des différentes cultures, les libanais perdent cette habilité et classent l’autre selon sa confession et son opinion politique. Les médias, en particulier les chaines télévisées locales (fondées par les différents leaders confessionnels ou politico-confessionnels), n’ai
