Explain how the mass media can influence your personality.
✓
Answer
Internet and other forms of mass media are now deeply integrated in almost everyone’s daily lives. Mass media is a source of entertainment, informal education, socialization, etc. to many of us.
Nowadays, majority of adolescents spend more and more time in front of the TV, mobile and computer which may affect their personality.
For example, mass media may help an individual to have an updated knowledge of current affairs, etc. which in turn positively affects the development of an individual’s personality.
On the other hand, an excessive addiction to using media may cause disconnection from the world, egocentrism, sleep deprivation, poor academic performance, insecurity, anti-social behaviours, loneliness, etc. which in turn adversely affects the development of an individual’s personality.
