Signorielli, Nancy
Youth and Society, v23 n1 p121-49 Sep 1991
Using cultivation theory, the portrayal of marriage on prime-time television was examined, and the relationship between television viewing and ambivalence about marriage and family was explored for over 3,200 high school seniors. It was evident that television may cultivate important ideas about marriage, interpersonal relationships, and family. (SLD)
