Abstract

This article examines the influence of exposure setting on mood states and enjoyment of entertainment media. In two studies, participants watched one of eight possible programs for viewing and reported their affective states after watching the program. In the first study, participants (N = 189) were forced to watch one of the programs. In the second study, participants (N = 294) were able to freely choose one of the eight programs for viewing. Those able to freely choose content experienced more enjoyment than those who were forced to view content. Regarding effects of program type, those who viewed scripted programs experienced slightly stronger positive mood and more enjoyment than those who viewed reality programs. Findings are discussed in terms of selective exposure, mood management, and psychological reactance.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
