Not so, says Karen Dill in this lively & provocative book. As much as we may want to deny it, the images, sounds, & narratives that bombard us daily have ample power to alter our realities. Dill, the author of the single-most-cited study on the effects of video-game violence, draws on extensive research in social psychology to show not only the myriad ways - for good & ill - that media influence us, but also why we resist believing they do. Vibrantly written & packed with examples from everyday life, her wide-ranging analysis encompasses everything from gender & racial stereotyping to social identity, domestic violence, & presidential politics. 410 0$aOxford scholarship online. 606 $aMass media$xSocial aspects 606 $aMass media$xPsychological aspects 606 $aSocial psychology 615 0$aMass media$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aMass media$xPsychological aspects. 615 0$aSocial psychology. 676 $a302.23 700 $aDill$b Karen E$01138993 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815055503321 996 $aHow fantasy becomes reality$93977503 997 $aUNINA
