What do you think this theory is about?
T-P-S
Uses and gratifications model In general the hypodermic, 2 fold and
cultural effects models see the media, to a greater or lesser extent, to have control over what people think and the way they behave.
The uses and gratifications model is very different
It looks at how people use the media as opposed to how the media influences people
Stand up
The uses and gratifications model starts with the view that media audiences are thinking, active and creative human beings
They actively use the media in various ways for their own pleasures and interests – gratifications
Change of emphasis from the various ways the media influence and manipulate people to an emphasis on the way audiences use the media

Uses and gratifications model This variety of uses for the media which provides
a range of pleasures, shows that people make conscious choices, select and interpret the media.
They choose what they watch on TV or read in the newspapers and magazines and use them for an array of needs which they decide.
The effects of the media are likely to be different in each case, depending on what people are using the media for.
We can’t assume that the uses and effects of the media – even the exact same piece of media will be the same in every case
