Domain-specific¶
- Cultivation Theory
- Cultivation theory, developed by George Gerbner and colleagues beginning in the 1960s, holds that sustained, cumulative exposure to a common symbolic environment — paradigmatically broadcast television — gradually calibrates viewers' background beliefs about social reality toward the statistical world depicted on screen rather than toward the statistical world they actually inhabit
This sourceThe heavy-versus-light viewer comparison that the Cultural Indicators surveys were built on; the four-hour threshold is a convention of the earlier violence-profile work and was not applied uniformly, several waves using sample-relative splits.

Verification¶
Does it exist? Not checked yet. This entry carries no identifier to resolve. It was extracted from the citation as written in the article, normalized, and deduplicated against the rest of the registry.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
