1 Once Bitten, Twice Shy: Influences on Self-Selected to Twilight Saga Media Across Two Chronologically Distinct Times in the Phenomenon s Popularity Garmon, Lance C., Egerton, Nichole, & Kinder, Alexandria Salisbury University Salisbury, Maryland October 11 th, 2013 Poster Presented at the 6th Emerging Adulthood Conference, Chicago, Illinois Abstract Consistent with Uses and Gratification Approach (see Rubin, 1994), the current study explores a wide range of possible influences on an emerging adult s choice to read the books or watch the movies which comprise The Twilight Saga. While a minority of individuals resist any such media exposure, others opt for extremely high levels of repeated exposure. Relevant variables include gender, maturational age or class rank, romantic relationship experience, representation of attachment, and personal perceptions of the fictional characters and the media s influence. Data was collected during two different phases of the phenomenon s popularity and distinguishes between book and movie exposure. Uses and gratifications theory (Katz et al., 1974) purports that people are aware of their social and psychological needs, and thus make media selections that are most likely to fulfill those needs (Rubin, 2002).Given that emerging adults often have more control over their media use then they did previously [in adolescence], it becomes more important than ever to examine the reasons behind the media choices that are made. (Coyne, Padilla-Walker, & Howard, 2013, p. 129) Introduction This study utilizes one of the most popular media phenomenons of the last decade The Twilight Saga to explore claims inherent to the Uses and Gratification Approach (see Rubin, 1994, 2002) regarding the possible influence individual differences may exert on both media consumption and media influence. The Uses and Gratification Approach proposes that individuals actively seek out the media to which they are exposed from the myriad of choices marketed to them. A central question is why so many emerging adults have chosen exposure to the Twilight Saga books and movies over the last decade, and why some have chosen such high levels of repeated exposure. Previous research supports a common view that the The Twilight Saga is primarily a love story (Garmon, Glover, & Vozzola, 2011). If viewed from the perspective of attachment theory, the primary romantic relationship in The Twilight Saga appears to exhibit many of the characteristics of anxious attachment.
2 Hypotheses (H1) Self-Selected Absolute to the Popular Media (The Twilight Saga) will be influenced by: Demographic variables such as Age, Education, Gender, and Relationship Experience Internal Working Models of Attachment to Romantic Partners (H2) Perceptions of the Romantic Relationships within the fictional story will be influenced by: Demographic variables such as Age, Education, Gender, and Relationship Experience Internal Working Models of Attachment to Romantic Partners (H3) Self-selected Level to the Popular Media (The Twilight Saga) will be influenced by: Demographic variables such as Age, Education, Gender, and Relationship Experience Internal Working Models of Attachment to Romantic Partners Perceptions of the Romantic Relationships within the fictional story Methodology Online surveys were completed by a total of 415 emerging adults during two different phases of The Twilight Saga s popularity. Phase 1 (N = 104) occurred in Spring 2010 after the release of the second movie and Phase 2 (n = 313) in Fall 2011 after the release of the fourth movie. Respondents received college credit in psychology courses for their participation, but the majority of respondents were not psychology majors. Almost half of respondents classified themselves as freshmen (N = 206) and the majority were both female (N = 312) and white (N = 325). Survey items assessed individual differences in demographics, relationship experience, and internal working models of attachment (Experiences in Close Relationships Revised; Fraley, Waller, & Brennan, 2000). Research participants also reported on their level of exposure to The Twilight Saga and their perception of its romantic aspects. Absolute (Yes/No) across the phases was remarkably consistent (See Table 1); approximately 25% of respondents reported no media exposure of any type during each phase and movie exposure was consistently higher than for books. This consistency in Absolute as well as differences in extreme exposure outliers between phases raised methodological concerns about the use of a continuous exposure variable. A quartile-split was performed within each phase creating a four-category Level scale distinguishing those with No, Low, Moderate, and High for the total sample (see Table 1). Results H(1) Findings Females were more likely to report Absolute in all media formats (See Table 2). Age and Education demographic variables were not related to overall Absolute, but differences existed for Book and Movie exposure (See Table 3) Real-Life Relationship Experiences were not related to Absolute Representations of Attachment Avoidant Attachment was not related to any Absolute variable Higher Anxious Attachment scores were recorded for those reporting any exposure to The Twilight Saga Phase 1, F(1, 101) = 7.33, p =.008 o Yes: M = 3.56 (SD = 1.24) / No: M = 2.87 (SD = 1.31) Anxious Attachment was not related to Absolute for either Phase 2 or the Total Sample H(2) Findings Perception of Romantic Relationship Preference: For which relationship were you rooting? Clear preference for Bella/Edward dyad (See Figure 1) Females more likely to report a preference and to prefer Bella/Edward dyad (See Figure 1): Not related to other Demographic, Real-Life Relationship Experience, or Attachment variables
3 Perception of Media Influence: Which statement best describes the influence of the Twilight Saga series on your life? Approximately half (N = 145, 47.9%) did not perceive any influence Females more likely to report Perceived Influence, particularly perceiving characteristics of the fictional love story as real-life goals in their own relationships (See Figure 2): Not related to other Demographic variables Real-Life Relationship Experience (See Figure 2): More likely to Fantasize if not in relationship Respondents with both lower (more psychologically preferred) Anxiety and Avoidance scores were more likely to report not perceiving any influence on their real life (See Figure 3) H(3) Findings Females were more likely to report higher Levels in all media formats (See Table 2). Higher Levels were associated with lower Age and Education Level (See Table 3) Higher Levels were associated with higher GPA (See Table 3) Real-Life Relationship Experiences were not related to any Level variable Representations of Attachment and Level Avoidant Attachment was not related to any Level variable Anxious Attachment was related to Level during Phase 1 (See Figure 4) only Those Perceiving a Relationship Preference reported higher levels of exposure (See Figure 5) Perceived Influence was also associated with levels of exposure such that higher exposure existed for those who perceived the fictional love story as a real-life goal in own relationships (See Figure 6) Summary and Discussion The consistently high level of self-selected exposure to The Twilight Saga suggests the phenomenon represents an important cultural touchstone for many emerging adults during the last decade. Findings support the foundational concepts of the Uses and Gratification Approach o to popular culture media varies in predictable ways o Different influences exist for Absolute and Level of The influence of Representations of Attachment varied across the life of the phenomenon o Suggests different motivators for early adopters (Phase 1) of popular culture phenomenons o Future research needs to continue to explore subsequent phases of the phenomenon o Contrary to expectations, both Anxiety and Avoidant Attachment were influential Findings related to the perception of the popular culture media varied o Perceptions of both Relationship Preference and Perceived Influence o Both Types of Perceptions were not related to the same predictive and outcome variables Variations in media exposure though suggest different motivations may exist for different individuals and at different times in the phenomenon s popularity o Arnett s (1995) proposal that media serve five possible uses Identity Formation, Entertainment, High Sensation, Coping, and Youth Culture Identification may provide the basis for future research exploring these possible motivation variations o Differences in book versus movie exposure imply individuals may use media formats differently o This project focused on factors which might increase the likelihood of self-selected exposure, but an equally interesting question may involve identifying factors leading many to resist exposure We strongly agree with Coyne, Padilla-Walker, & Howard s (2013) challenge encouraging researchers to examine media use through a developmental lens when studying emerging adulthood. Research in this vein will help us truly understand how and why emerging adults use various forms of media and what influence the media have on development (p. 133).
