Description
Enjoyment as a concept has been central to media effects research for decades, though an exact definition of the term has proven difficult for communication scientists. This entry offers an overview of the concept of enjoyment, its causes, and its effects. Focusing on the development of entertainment research and theories of enjoyment, it offers a retrospective look at a central media effect and a view on where current research and development in the study of media enjoyment are situated today.
