Abstract

Psychology curricula rarely include issues concerning the effects of television and other media. In response to this deficiency, the rationale for, and description of, a new undergraduate course, “The Psychology of Mass Communication,” are discussed. The reading materials, course topics, class format, and requirements are described. The course has sustained considerable interest and a large enrollment for several years. © 1987, SAGE Publications.
