- Gentile & Semsa (2003)
o Which developmental approach can you use to explain why
adolescents show increased interest in celebrities and
interactions with influencers during adolescence?
Developmental task approach
o Why is the risk and resilience approach also known as the
cumulative risk model?
Because this approach looks at the risk factors, the more
at-risk a child is, the greater the chance of problematic
functioning. So the risk factors add up.
- Subrahmanyam & Šmahel (2011)
o According to these authors we can see the online world as a
“playing ground” for adolescents’ developmental issues from
offline lives, explain this with a concrete example.
Adolescents can experiment in the online world because
anonymity and safety on the internet makes it possible to
test aspects of their identity.
o Why can we talk about an “online media culture”? What does
culture refer to here?
We can talk about an online media culture because online
media consumes time every day. Cultural elements are different
for people who use social media and who don’t. This can differ in
norms and values.
