Under the White supremacy framework, Black people and culture have been devalued and neglected for a long time. The all-Black lead Marvel film Black Panther, directed by Ryan Coogler in 2018, employs a well-defined system to present the appeals on anti-racist and reconstruct the filmic Black identity. This study explicitly analyses the approach through which the images of Black people and Black culture are represented, and it attempts to understand how this film reconstructs Black people’s sense of self-identity. This study focuses on the physical appearance of Black superheroes and material culture, the spatial narrative of Black Panther’s fictional spatial world Wakanda, and the Black spirit depicted in the film. Cultural identity, cinematic representation theory, and social identity theory are used to interpret how Black Panther reconstructs Black identity and represents Black culture. This study discovers that Black superheroes are portrayed as powerful, justice, and wise as White people, and Wakanda provides a utopia for a non-racist world. Meanwhile, Black culture is depicted elegantly and proudly to reconstruct Black people’s recognition of cultural and social identity.","PeriodicalId":52105,"journal":{"name":"Media Watch","volume":"14 1","pages":"77 - 99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44421133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study looks at how binge-watching affects several aspects of life (physical and psychological), correlating it to depression and loneliness, to test whether it affects them psychologically in a helpful way or drags them down to worse situations. Between December 2020 and April 2021, 234 participants completed an online survey that included four credible scales: the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale, the Watching TV Series Motives Questionnaire, the Binge-watching Engagement and Symptoms Questionnaire and the UCLA Loneliness Scale (Version 3). Reaching out that most viewers watch alone and plan before entering the binge cycle, but not all of them could succeed in perceiving the impact of binge-watching left on them after ending their binging. The findings revealed that binge-watching is more prevalent among younger age. Additionally, there was a partial positive association between binge-watching and depression and loneliness. Furthermore, some TV viewing motives were positively associated with depression and loneliness.","PeriodicalId":52105,"journal":{"name":"Media Watch","volume":"13 1","pages":"264 - 279"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48452552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, there has been little scientific literature about this widespread aspiration. This study introduces a robust and straightforward self-report scale measuring desire to be an SMI. Item and factor analyses supported the unidimensionality of the desire to be an SMI questionnaire. Reliability analysis, including inter-item correlation, corrected item-total correlation and Cronbach’s α, revealed good internal consistency. Subsequently, we investigated the psychological determinants and consequences of the desire to become an SMI. Results revealed that desire for fame, materialism, perceived deprivation, preference for immediate gratification to delayed gratification and confidence in one’s success as an SMI predicted desire to be an SMI. In addition, an elevated desire to be an SMI was linked to a tendency to place less value on education but not on careers in education (e.g., teaching). Our findings suggest that the aspiration to be an SMI may inspire ‘hope labour’, which may lead young people to devalue education.","PeriodicalId":52105,"journal":{"name":"Media Watch","volume":"13 1","pages":"246 - 263"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42394048","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this exploratory sequential mixed methods research, undergraduates reported perceptions of media portrayals of stepmothers, stepfathers and stepfamilies in 107 narratives. Those categories created a way to quantitatively distinguish between perceptions based on viewer sex and family type in the second study with 341 college student participants. The first study revealed that perceptions of stepparent portrayals in media might often align with stereotypes (e.g., stepmonsters) while also highlighting a mix of negative and positive perceptions and narratives about the depicted normalcy of stepfamilies. Study Two identified that sex or family type might slightly influence what some notice in television portrayals. However, media often portrays unambiguous views of stepfamilies, and these portrayals are noticed and remembered by viewers with only a slight impact from demographic differences.","PeriodicalId":52105,"journal":{"name":"Media Watch","volume":"13 1","pages":"221 - 245"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47310000","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Through its universal critique of war, the text probes the problematic ways in which memory and traumatic lived realities interact to create narratives that subvert populist/national discourses. Folman’s amnesiac memory, which refuses to uphold a linear progression of the past, brings before the reader/viewer dual textual registers of identity formation (through Folman’s coming to terms with his repressed memories as a soldier in Lebanon) within the attempted counter-narrative against totalitarian histories. The article looks at how Folman’s amnesiac memory becomes a tool through which an ‘individual’ subjective history is birthed—thus giving rise to a reverse bildungsroman—within the contours of a counter-narrative on the national history of Israel’s war in Lebanon. Finally, in positing history as a project against totalitarianism, the article attempts to question what constitutes historicity: Is it the facticity of past events that determines their actual value? If so, what does it bode for a post-truth, polysemiotic world?","PeriodicalId":52105,"journal":{"name":"Media Watch","volume":"13 1","pages":"147 - 156"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48526757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
