What is Media Psychology?
Media Psychology is a new and emerging field, so the early entrants have the excitement and burden of defining the path.
What is media psychology? It’s a field with no consensus definition, no clearly-defined career paths, and no easy answers. In spite of that, it can add value anywhere human behavior intersects media technologies. Here’s why:
- Media technologies are everywhere
- People of all ages use media technologies a lot
- Young people use them most
- Older people worry about younger people
- Technology is not going away
- We all worry if this is good or bad or somewhere in-between
- Psychology is the study of people of all ages
