Testing the Limits of Social Cognitive Theory:

A cautionary tale for media effects research

Abstract

In the past decades, media researchers have tended to focus on just a few "well-established" theories of media effects, mostly using them as frameworks for research, rather than offering critical tests. This talk will highlight the limitations of this approach, focusing specifically on social cognitive theory. Data from two studies will demonstrate that social cognitive theory may not be particularly well applied to media contexts, particularly for risky behaviors. Implications for the future direction for theory-driven empirical research will be addressed.
