Television Effects on Canadian Arctic High School Students.
Coldevin, Gary O.
The purpose of this study was to contrast and compare television effects across three types of students at a high school in the Canadian Arctic--Euro-Canadian students, Inuit students resident in Frobisher Bay, and Inuit students from isolated settlements. Television had recently been introduced to the area by means of a satellite re-broadcast system with programming similar to that seen in Southern Canada. Variables considered included: (1) television availability and exposure time, (2) program preferences, (3) travel and occupational aspirations, (4) knowledge and sources of information on national and international issues, and (5) leisure time activities. Appended are the questionnaire, the code book, and tables of comparisons. (STS)
