Abstract:

The role of the family in creating rules that mediate any effects that media exposure may have on children and other family members, it is important to examine the factors that impact family rulemaking. This study looks at the relationship between family communication pattern, perceived media influence, media use patterns, and family rulemaking as reported by middle school and college students using a comprehensive medialog. Structural equation modeling was used to examine the ability of perceived media influence, family communication pattern, and current media use to predict home media rule making. The results suggest that these variables are limited in their explanation of family media regulation. As predicted, family communication pattern was a small but significant predictor of media regulation. The authors provide suggestions for further research.
