Media Influence on Behavior

Media influence on behavior refers to how exposure to television, social media, news, and other forms of communication can shape our attitudes, opinions, and actions. Media can highlight certain narratives, trends, or behaviors, which may influence individuals’ perceptions and choices—such as adopting new fashion, attitudes, or even behavioral norms. This influence can be subtle or direct, impacting how people see themselves and others. Overall, media serves as a powerful tool that can reinforce societal values or challenge them, shaping behaviors both consciously and unconsciously.
