商品描述
The media provide strong and persuasive messages about the intersection of culture and gender roles. Given the power of the media to influence and ""educate"" the public, understanding its images of girls and women is critical. Featuring Females analyzes the portrayals of women in a variety of outlets including reality television shows, films, print and electronic news programming, magazines, video games, and commercial advertising. A highly esteemed group of scholars and researchers provides informed original psychological study, and their thought-provoking findings address the ways in which aging, race/ethnicity, body image, gender roles, sexual orientation and relationships, and violence are treated in the media. Featuring Females is a diverse and provocative volume, exploring images and characterizations of women young and old, and inspiring discussion of the effects that these representations have on girls, women, and society at large. Dr. Ellen Cole, Professor of Psychology Emerita from Alaska Pacific University, is currently Professor of Psychology at the Sage Colleges, with campuses in Albany and Troy, NY, where she teaches in the Counseling and Community Psychology graduate program and coordinates their internship program. She is past-president of the Alaska Psychological Association and the Society for the Psychology of Women of the American Psychological Association (APA Division 35) and former chair of APA’s Committee on Women in Psychology.
