activation theory of information exposure  

Definición

  • The activation theory of information exposure, developed by Lewis Donohew and Philip Palmgreen, explains individual differences in attention and continued exposure to mass and interpersonal messages. The theory treats messages as sources of stimulation and holds that their success or failure to attract and hold listeners, viewers, or readers is a function of both cognitive and biologically based individual needs.
