Abstract
Exposure to television may well be the most extensively studied of all communication behaviors. For over 3 decades, rating services have regularly measured television audiences to satisfy the demands of those seeking to exploit the medium’s commercial potential. Beyond such pragmatic and far-reaching efforts to document the extent of television viewership, scholars from a variety of disciplines have devoted considerable attention to assessing the uses and effects of exposure.
